When you stop and think about it, Blighty or Britannia, also known as England, is known for three things.
The first is the heroic display of a stiff upper lip that remained firm despite seemingly impossible odds during the horrors at Reichsmarschall Hermann Goring's Blitz on London.

This latter, despite her unremitting penchant for sybaritism is charmingly sexy but disastrous. The third, and most important, is the rich history of military timepieces.
