Overview
The MWC Classic Aviator is a rugged, reliable timepiece designed with a nod to the classic pilot watches of the 1950s—but packed with modern performance upgrades. Built with a solid stainless steel case, screw-down crown and case back, and 100m water resistance, this model is both robust and functional.
Inside, it’s powered by a 24-jewel NH35A automatic movement with hacking feature and a 41-hour power reserve, offering impressive mechanical precision. The dial is protected by a shatter- and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, making it ideal for military, law enforcement, and active outdoor users.

Why Sapphire Crystal?
Sapphire crystal is by far the most durable option for watch glass. It is:
Highly scratch-resistant
Shatter-resistant
Used by leading military and law enforcement professionals
Now featured in high-end tech like the latest iPhone screens
Compared to even hardened mineral glass, sapphire stands up far better to impacts and adverse conditions. Over 90% of cracked crystal cases we see involve mineral glass—not sapphire. While it’s more costly, its superior strength and clarity make it the top choice for serious users.
