Product Details

SKU Code: G10/3/US/NAT

This watch is a Limited Edition U.S. Dial variant of the 300m G10 in a brushed stainless steel case. The MWC 300m / 1000ft water-resistant G10 models have the highest water resistance rating of any G10 / General Service watch available globally. Featuring a highly scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and an impressive 10-year battery life, this G10/98 Specification watch traces its origins to our earliest G10 designs in the 1980s but has been completely updated. No other General Service watch currently in production can match its specifications.

When MWC secured the contract to produce this model, it was specified that the watch should include a heavy-duty screwback case, 300m water resistance, sapphire crystal, and screw-down crown. The result of these improvements is a unique 300m water-resistant General Service watch, offering the perfect combination of low maintenance and high durability.

The back of the case bears various contract markings in addition to the unique serial number.

Why Choose Sapphire Crystal?

Many customers inquire about the benefits of sapphire crystal over standard mineral crystal. Synthetic sapphire is the best material for watch crystals due to its exceptional strength, shatter resistance, and scratch resistance. These characteristics make it ideal for military and security personnel, police officers, and individuals with active outdoor lifestyles, who comprise over 70% of our customers.

When accidents result in cracked crystals, over 90% involve watches with mineral glass crystals. Even with hardened mineral crystals, they do not compare to sapphire for durability under adverse conditions. Sapphire crystals are strong because they undergo a heat-treatment process that removes internal stresses, which can cause weakness. After manufacturing, the sapphire glass is made into watch crystals, and two layers of anti-reflective coating are applied. Interestingly, sapphire crystal is now used on the latest iPhones. Due to its higher cost, sapphire crystal is typically found only in higher-end watches.
