MWC "Depthmaster" 100atm / 3,280ft / 1000m Water Resistant Military Divers Watch in PVD Stainless Steel Case with GTLS and Helium Valve (Automatic)

The MWC "Depthmaster" range Military Diver models are MWC's latest heavy duty range and are both extremely robust with a sapphire crystal as well as being suitable for diving with mixed gases at extreme depths due to the 100atm water resistance rating, they also have a wider strap at 24mm (most military divers watches use a 20mm strap) and a non scratch ceramic bezel which is easier to grip in extreme cold. This model also has tritium GTLS tubes for maximum nighttime and low light performance. The Depthmaster range are specifically designed for use by professional divers under challenging conditions.

This particular variant has a 24 hour military format dial and is finished in black PVD stainless steel. The special covert matt black non reflective PVD finish used for this watch is often specified in military contracts for many special forces units as well as by anti terrorist units and for various covert operations. In the PVD process the steel is not black all the way through because the color is created by a special chemical PVD plating process which is vastly superior to the painted finish used on some lower quality watches which can easily fade or rub off. This PVD process means that the color of the steel is altered at a molecular level, therefore it will not deteriorate even during heavy usage although it can be destroyed if the case is badly damaged by a piece of metal being gouged out or if the case is worn down by continuous heavy abrasion against rocks etc.

The movement is a high quality 24 jewel automatic NH35A with hacking function to enable synchronisation. The movement also has a 41 hour power reserve.
