TO CLEAR AT LESS THAN HALF THE MANUFACTURERS RETAIL PRICE
We obtained a small quantity of these watches at a recent military and security industries clearance sale, they are contract surplus but brand new and in their original tins and boxes. We do not have many and once they are sold it is unlikely we would ever be able to obtain any more because MWC only make this watch now in the automatic variant.
Watch may require a new battery in the near future but we have no way of knowing when because we do not know the exact age because they came in as mentioned above from a clearance auction. The movement is a VH31 which uses a standard 371 or SR920SW battery.
This is the same watch which was sold at $290 on the MWC website.

This military divers watch has a 300m (1000ft) Water Resistance rating, screw down crown, screw caseback, Luminova and a sophisticated hybrid movement which combines the characteristics of an automatic watch for example sweep secondhand with the benefits of a highly accurate quartz movement. The watch also has a hacking feature for synchronization or to enable you to stop the watch running and conserve power if it won't be used for an extended period.
The MWC hybrid divers watch essentially combines the best of new and traditional watchmaking technology. It encompasses features from both our conventional automatic and quartz models resulting in a hybrid ultra low maintenance movement. The hybrid movement has a battery powering the movement through coils and a quartz oscillator, but the hands are mechanically actuated and controlled. Essentially the movement is mechanical except it's powered by a battery and regulated by a crystal the only thing it doesn't have is a spring.
The standard MWC divers watches in both automatic and quartz are among our most tried and tested models this watch offers the ideal choice for buyers who would prefer the sweep secondhand as seen in automatic watches with the hassle free maintenance benefits of a quartz watch.
The watch is supplied with two military webbing straps one in grey and one in black. The reverse of the case carries various contract markings.
