Vintage CWC G10 Military Issued, 1997 (Ref. 5415317)
CWC (Cabot Watch Company), a British watchmaker, has a long history of producing military watches for various branches of the armed forces. The G10 Military Issued Watch, first introduced in 1980, was a favourite of British military personnel due to its reliability, accuracy, and durability.
The G10 features a rugged stainless steel case, a reliable quartz movement, and a NATO strap that is both comfortable and durable. It was designed to meet the specific needs of military personnel. It was built to withstand harsh environments, such as extreme temperatures and high altitudes, and was designed to be easily read in low light conditions.
The stamp on the case back of this watch denotes that this was military issued and has seen real action. As such, expect some wear and scratches, which we feel add to its authenticity. If you are looking for a NOS example of this watch, this one may not be for you.
