MWC 100m Water Resistant Retro Pattern General Service Watch with Hybrid Mechanical/Quartz Movement (Plain Caseback Suitable for Personalisation and Engraving)
Description
SKU Code: CLA/UNB/W10/PCB
This retro-style MWC military watch takes inspiration from the classic designs used by the British Army in the 1960s. Upgraded from the original acrylic crystal to a glass crystal, it meets modern water resistance standards while retaining its vintage aesthetic. The watch also features subtle updates that improve its functionality for everyday use.
A key enhancement is the hybrid mechanical/quartz movement, which combines the best of both traditional and contemporary watchmaking. This hybrid design incorporates elements from both automatic and quartz models, delivering a low-maintenance movement. Powered by a battery and regulated by a quartz oscillator, the hands are mechanically actuated. Essentially, it operates like a mechanical watch, but without the need for a mainspring. This hybrid movement offers the smooth, sweeping second hand typical of automatic watches, along with the hassle-free maintenance of a quartz watch.
The watch boasts a sturdy satin-finished case made from Military Grade 316L stainless steel, complete with a sweeping second hand, hacking function, black dial, and luminous markers. It comes with two straps—one grey and one black—providing flexibility in style.
