MWC Automatic Black PVD Military Divers Watch - Tritium / GTLS Illumination, Sapphire Crystal and 24 Jewel NH35 Movement
type: Product
description: SKU: DV2001/PVAU/SL35 MWC first manufactured the predecessor to this 300m/1000ft water-resistant diver's watch between the early 1990s and 2004. This model is closely based on a watch introduced by MWC in 2005, which was the first to use tritium gas tubes. The self-luminous GTLS tubes make the watch extremely easy to read at night, with consistently bright illumination from dusk until dawn. Each hour and minute hand, as well as the hour markers, contain a brightly glowing vial of tritium gas. Although the vials contain radioactive gas, the total amount is less than the personal limit of 25 millicuries, in accordance with U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission regulations 10 CFR 30.15. Superior Night Readability Military watches of this type are the easiest in the world to read in low light or total darkness due to the self-activated light source, which is up to 100 times brighter than traditional luminous paint. The light-emitting tubes require no battery power or charging and need no maintenance, with a life expectancy of at least 10 years after which they can start to decline. Rediscovery and Remake Although this watch was discontinued by MWC over 20 years ago, an interesting turn of events occurred when an MWC distributor in Australia discovered 500 brand-new quartz versions of this range in their storeroom. These watches, made between 1999 and 2001, were part of a procurement contract. When the distributor's son conducted a detailed stock check, these watches came to light. We were offered the opportunity to buy them back, and their popularity prompted us to remake the watches in the same design with significant upgrades. Upgrades and Improvements Advances in watch manufacturing over the past 20 years allowed us to enhance the overall specifications: Movement: Automatic Seiko NH35 with 24 Jewel, which can also be hand-wound and has hacking for synchronization. Crystal: Upgraded from hardened mineral glass to sapphire, which is highly scratch and shatter-resistant. B…
