MWC Titanium Military Watch 300m/1000ft / GTLS Illumination and Sapphire Crystal

Description: SKU Code: T/12/SL23 This latest MWC self-luminous G10 model from the Combat Elite range features a titanium case with 300m (1000ft) water resistance, a screw-down crown and caseback, scratch and shatter-resistant sapphire crystal, and Tritium GTLS light sources on the hands and markers for optimal performance in darkness. The MWC 300m Titanium G10, equipped with a Swiss Ronda 715li movement, is one of their highest specification general service watches, setting a global benchmark in its category. This model blends the best of both modern and traditional watchmaking technology. It retains all the favored features of the conventional 300m steel models but introduces a titanium case, ultra-low maintenance movement, and cutting-edge self-luminous GTLS tritium vials, offering unparalleled night visibility. The addition of a shatter and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal makes it the ideal timepiece for military, law enforcement, and security applications. Designed according to American Military Specification Number: US MIL-W-46374F, this model is the 12-hour European military version. Its self-luminous system ensures easy readability at night, featuring a distinctive high-visibility dial. The hour markers and hands each contain a brightly glowing vial of Tritium gas, all within the safe limit of 25 millicuries as per U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission regulations (10 CFR 30.15). These watches are the easiest to read in low light or darkness, thanks to a self-activated light source 100 times brighter than traditional light sources. The light-emitting tubes require no battery power, charging, or maintenance. MWC designed these watches specifically for a government contract. Given the requirement for long-term storage without battery issues, the Ronda 715li movement, with its 10-year battery life, was the perfect solution. The standard MWC G10 is a highly regarded military watch, in service since the 1980s. This titanium model elevates the design, offering a unique class of watches. The G10 Combat Elite range comes with a NATO pattern nylon military webbing strap, and the reverse of the case features various contract markings.

Sapphire crystal is exceptionally strong, shatter-resistant, and scratch-resistant, making it highly desirable for individuals with active lifestyles, particularly military, security personnel, and police officers, who constitute over 70% of our customer base. Our observations reveal that over 90% of incidents resulting in cracked watch crystals involve timepieces with mineral glass crystals. Even when considering hardened mineral crystals, they fall short of sapphire in terms of durability, especially in adverse conditions. Sapphire crystals derive their robustness from a meticulous process: post-manufacturing, the sapphire glass undergoes heat treatment to eliminate internal stresses that could compromise its strength. Subsequently, it is transformed into watch crystals and receives two layers of anti-reflective coating. Undoubtedly, the premium quality of sapphire crystal comes with a corresponding price tag, making it a feature predominantly found in higher-end watches. This investment pays dividends in terms of longevity, resilience, and overall performance, solidifying sapphire crystal's status as the top choice for discerning customers seeking unparalleled durability in their timepieces.
