Product Details

SKU Code: G10PL

This MWC model is an exact remake of the watch we produced between 1982 and 1999. It retains the traditional plexiglass crystal, making it visually indistinguishable from the originals, as seen in the final two images. However, we have made significant improvements, such as extending the battery life to 60 months, compared to the original's 18-month lifespan in the early 80s.

Key Features:

• Improved Battery Life: Now features a 60-month battery life, a significant upgrade from the original 18-month lifespan.
• Enhanced Nighttime Visibility: Utilizes Super Luminova for improved nighttime visibility while retaining the historical encircled T on the dial. Super Luminova operates like a light battery, glowing in the dark after sufficient activation by sunlight or artificial light. Larger markings are often visible throughout the night and can be recharged easily by exposing the watch to bright light for a few minutes.
• Durable and Reliable: Extensively evaluated by military personnel in various locations, proving long-term reliability and durability.

Historical Accuracy with Modern Improvements:

While this model remains visually identical to the original watches made in the 1980s and 1990s, it incorporates several detailed improvements, making it superior to its predecessors. Super Luminova pigments, which are 100% free of radioactivity, replace the original tritium paint, addressing aging issues associated with old radioactive pigments.

    Failed delivery of an item ordered due to non-acceptance of the delivery

    Please note that if you order an item and the delivery company inform us that the item was refused it would be returned back to us, in many cases especially with FedEx, UPS etc they will also charge a return fee to send it back. Because in these circumstances we have done everything that is required to get the item to you we would refund less both the outbound and Inbound shipping charges once the item was received back at our packing and shipping centre. Unfortunately sometimes if you are having the order delivered to a business location the people receiving inbound parcels are prone to refuse an item without checking with the individual concerned we would strongly recommend being very cautious in this situation and notifying the people who handle the incoming parcels that you are expecting a delivery to avoid this problem occurring. Usually, we would be notified there is a delivery issue and would email you for your instructions, normally these sorts of problems can be avoided if you contact the carrier and tell them there is an error but it's very important to act quickly to avoid the return and associated costs.
