MWC P656 Tactical Series Watch with GTLS Tritium, Subdued Dial, Automatic Sapphire Crystal (Date Version)
The robust 300m water resistant MWC Tactical Series watches were specifically designed for marine, surface and airborne applications, they are manufactured to surpass U.S W-46374F Type 6 specifications, these watches were ordered by a bulk contract client and are based on designs made in the mid 1990’s but with significant upgrades bringing them up to modern specifications, an example of one of the original 1990’s watches appears in the final image, as far as the upgrades are concerned the main improvements are the solid steel case - the 1990s watches were carbon fibre, water resistance being increased by a factor of 10 from 30m to 300m (165ft to 1000ft), plus the the screw down crown and an impact and scratch resistant sapphire crystal. The bezel and dial are covert with subdued numerals but the tritium vials mean the watch is easy to see even under the most adverse light conditions. The watch uses Swiss Tritium GTLS (Gaseous Tritium Light Sources) which are significantly brighter than any conventional luminous watch.
The timepiece features a high quality 24 Jewel NH35A automatic movement with a 41 hour power reserve. The watch is water resistant to 30 ATM (1000 ft/300m).
The crystal is military grade sapphire which is highly scratch resistant with two internal layers of non reflective coating. The dial features a radioactive tritium symbol.
