Some of the expensive timepieces agents have been given but never been used are being sold off by the Ministry of Defense to help plug a 36-billion-pound "black hole" in its finances, the Daily Telegraph reports.

據英國《每日電訊報》報道，英國國防部將曾配發給特工們，但未曾使用過的奢侈手表出售，以彌補該部門360億英磅（3746億人民幣）的財政黑洞。

They are among thousands of items – including an armored Jaguar, a fiberglass Harrier, and dozens of helicopters and Land Rovers – put on the market to raise funds for cash-strapped military.

為了給缺錢的部隊籌集資金，此次出售的物品達上千種，其中包括一輛裝甲捷豹車、一輛玻璃纖維的英國“鷂”式戰斗機、幾十架直升機和路虎越野車。

A source said: "These watches were bought for SAS and defense intelligence operatives who work at our embassies abroad, so they look the part when they go to events and parties attended by diplomats and local dignitaries. It's all part of creating the right image."

一位內部人士透露：“這些手表是買給在駐外使館工作的英國空軍特種部隊和國防部的情報特工的，他們帶上這些手表參加由各國外交官和當地名流出席的重大活動和聚會，看上去會更體面，用這些東西完全就是為了創造一個符合該場合的高貴形象。”
