Titanium G10 Military Watch with 300m Water Resistance, Sapphire Crystal, 10 Year Battery Life and GTLS Tritium Illumination

Product Details

SKU Code: T/1224/SL23

Introducing the latest MWC self-luminous G10 model from our Combat Elite range. This watch features a titanium case with 300m (1000ft) water resistance, a screw-down crown, a screw caseback, a scratch and shatter-resistant sapphire crystal, and Tritium GTLS light sources on the hands and markers. The digits and triangle are also printed with Luminova for maximum performance during the hours of darkness.

The MWC 300m titanium G10 with a Swiss Ronda 715li movement is among our highest specification general service watches, and it’s the most advanced watch of its kind manufactured anywhere worldwide. This model combines the best of both new and traditional watchmaking technology, retaining all the popular features from the conventional 300m steel models. The titanium case, ultra-low maintenance movement, cutting-edge self-luminous GTLS tritium vials for unbeatable night visibility, and shatter and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal make this the ideal timepiece for military, law enforcement, and security applications.

The specification of this watch follows American Military Specification Number: US MIL-W-46374F, and this model is the 12/24 hour North American market version. The self-luminous system makes the watch very easy to read at night with its high visibility dial. The hour markers and hour and minute hands each have a brightly glowing vial of tritium gas. Even when all the vials are combined, they contain less than the personal limit of 25 millicuries (as per U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission regulations 10 CFR 30.15). Military watches of this type are the easiest in the world to read in low light or total darkness thanks to a self-activated light source that is 100 times brighter than traditional luminous paint. The light-emitting tubes require no battery power or any form of charging and never need servicing or maintenance.

Designed specifically for a government contract, these watches address the need for long-term storage without battery issues. The Ronda 715li movement, with its 10-year battery life, ensures the watch remains ready for use whenever needed.

The standard MWC G10 is one of the most tried and tested military watches, with earlier variants in service since the 1980s. While this model shares a similar design to the steel versions, the titanium case elevates it into a distinct class of watches. The G10 Combat Elite range comes with a US pattern nylon military webbing strap. The reverse of the case features various contract markings.

*Many buyers inquire about the advantages of sapphire crystal over standard mineral crystal. The exceptional strength, shatter resistance, and scratch resistance of synthetic sapphire make it highly desirable for individuals with active lifestyles, particularly among military personnel, security professionals, and police officers, who constitute over 70% of our customer base.

Our observations reveal that over 90% of incidents resulting in cracked watch crystals involve timepieces with mineral glass crystals. Even hardened mineral crystals do not match sapphire's durability, especially in adverse conditions. Sapphire crystals derive their robustness from a meticulous process: post-manufacturing, the sapphire glass undergoes heat treatment to eliminate internal stresses that could compromise its strength. Subsequently, it is transformed into watch crystals and receives two layers of anti-reflective coating.

Undoubtedly, the premium quality of sapphire crystal comes with a corresponding price tag, making it a feature predominantly found in higher-end watches. This investment, however, pays dividends in terms of longevity, resilience, and overall performance, solidifying sapphire crystal's status as the top choice for discerning customers seeking unparalleled durability in their timepieces.

    *Some countries are notoriously slow to process goods on arrival, including Israel, Hong Kong, Macau, Mexico, South Africa, and some South American countries. Significant delays can also occur in other countries in Africa. For time-sensitive deliveries, we recommend using UPS, DHL, or FedEx.

    All shipping estimates exclude Saturdays and Sundays.

    While we strive to deliver within the above timeframes, they are guides, and delivery cannot be guaranteed. We are not responsible for delays caused by couriers or any national postal service. If your goods are not delivered within the estimated time, please contact us at admin@mwc.watch, and we will do our best to resolve the issue promptly. We are not liable for any loss caused by late delivery.

    Our delivery charges cover the cost of shipping to you but do not include import charges and administration fees to clear the goods when entering your country if applicable.

    It is the purchaser's responsibility to understand that charges may be levied and to pay all subsequent import taxes and duties on goods shipped to their country. If items are returned to MWC due to rejected payment, subsequent charges incurred (such as import duty and processing costs) will be deducted from any refund issued.

    We do not accept liability for goods lost after delivery to a PO Box. We reserve the right to cancel orders where the delivery address is a PO Box. Similarly, we do not accept liability for goods lost after confirmed delivery to APO or BFPO locations.

    Safe Place Deliveries

    Some delivery companies allow for delivery without a signature, leaving the item in a "safe place" (e.g., shed, garage, porch). If you choose this option, it is at your own risk. We initially send items by a secure service requiring a signature or proof of delivery. Using a "safe place" increases the risk of theft. We advise ensuring deliveries require a signature to ensure safe receipt.

    Failed Deliveries

    If an item is refused and returned to us, we will refund the order less the outbound and inbound shipping charges once the item is received back at our packing and shipping center. For business locations, please notify the receiving personnel of the expected delivery to avoid refusals. Usually, we will be notified of delivery issues and will email you for instructions. It is important to act quickly to avoid return and associated costs.
