MWC 100m Water Resistant Retro Pattern General Service Watch with Hybrid Mechanical/Quartz Movement (Plain Caseback Suitable for Personalisation)
SKU Code: CLA/UNB/W10/PCB This retro MWC military watch is inspired by the classic designs used by the British Army in the 1960s. Upgraded from an acrylic to a glass crystal, it now meets modern water resistance standards while retaining its original outward appearance. This watch is equipped with a hybrid mechanical/quartz movement, blending the best of both traditional and contemporary watchmaking technology. MWC hybrid watches combine features from both automatic and quartz models, resulting in an ultra-low maintenance movement. The hybrid movement is powered by a battery that drives the coils and quartz oscillator, but the hands are mechanically actuated and controlled. Essentially, the movement is mechanical but powered by a battery and regulated by a crystal, minus the spring. This makes it an ideal choice for those who prefer the sweep secondhand of an automatic watch but with the hassle-free maintenance benefits of a quartz watch. This watch features a robust stainless steel satin finish case made from Military Grade 316L stainless steel. It includes a sweep second hand, hacking function, black dial, and luminous markings. It comes with two NATO straps, one in grey and one in black, for versatile style options.
