This automatic self-winding 1960's pattern MWC military watch is based on the typical designs used by the British Army from the late 1940's to the 1960's, it retains the acrylic crystal as used on the original watches although the mechanical movement is upgraded to automatic with the option to hand wind if required.
The watch offers the benefit of retaining the original outward appearance even as far as the retro cream luminous paint whilst having the advantage of a few discreet updates to improve its suitability for use on a day to day basis.
This watch has a heavy stainless-steel satin finish case made from Military Grade 316L stainless steel, sweep seconds hand, hacking function, black dial and luminous markings.
It also has a strap made in the same canvas material and general design which was used in the 1940s and 50s.
Please note: The watch uses retro cream coloured Luminous Super Luminova paint although the watch carries an encircled T for historical accuracy though no radioactive material is contained within the watch. This watch is water resistant to 3 ATM.

MWC items offered for sale in this listing are 100% genuine and supplied with a 24 month manufacturers warranty.
Be aware that there are some sellers advertising MWC items marked 'As new but without tags' or 'With slight marks' etc. and saying they come with a manufacturers warranty- This is not possible

MWC are a leading supplier, not just to the military but also to police forces, anti terrorist units, airlines, mining companies and a diverse variety of government agencies and departments. They are one of the largest specialist manufacturers of high performance military watches and produce a wide range of models either to customers specific design requirements or by tendering for contracts where quality, reliability and durability are of primary importance.
*Water-resistant to 30 meters (100 feet/3atm).
The industry standard requires an ability to withstand splashes of water but should not be worn in contact with water. In respect of watches made by ourselves a 30m/99ft rating normally only applies to watches that use a Plexiglas or acrylic crystal and are based on 1960's (or earlier) designs where it is impractical to use a glass crystal because it would radically change the appearance of the watch.
Water Resistant does not mean Waterproof
