ITEM LOCATION EU AND UK

We have three watches which were on a stand at the IWA Show in Nürnberg, Germany. The packaging may be slightly soiled/marked from handling and also the strap may show a few signs of having been tried on but they are significantly reduced by 50% hence they offer a very substantial saving over the regular price but are brand new with a full factory guarantee. --

SKU: SM/AV/PVD

This MWC Classic Aviator model is built for durability and precision. It features a covert black, non-reflective stainless steel case with a screw-down crown and case back, ensuring 100m water resistance.

Modern Performance with Vintage Inspiration

While inspired by 1950s military aviation watches, this model incorporates modern technology for superior accuracy. It is powered by a 24-jewel NH35 automatic movement with:

• 41-hour power reserve
• Hacking function for precise time setting
• Shatter & scratch-resistant sapphire crystal

Durable & Tactical PVD Coating

The matte black PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) finish is widely used by special forces, anti-terror units, and law enforcement for covert operations. Unlike painted finishes that wear off over time, PVD alters the metal at a molecular level, offering:

• Superior resistance to fading & wear
• Long-lasting durability, even after decades of use
• Protection against scratches & abrasions, though extreme impacts can still cause damage
