Currently the highest specification G10 military watch available, also the only military grade stainless steel self luminous infantry watch in production because all alternative models are made from a variety of composite materials. The G10 SL uses light sources from MB Microtec in Switzerland who also provide light sources for Traser, Luminox and all other leading brands of military watch. This new model combines the best of both new and old technology. It keeps all the popular features from the older conventional models and employs the same solid steel case whilst having the benefit of the cutting edge self luminous tritium vials. The actual specification of this watch was dictated by American Military Specification Number: US MIL-W-46374F.
The self luminous system makes the watch very easy to read at night, the G10 SL has a very distinctive face layout. The hour and minute hands each have a brightly glowing vial of Tritium gas with 2 lights at 12 o'clock which is a feature unique to MWC.
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 they are 100 times brighter than traditional light sources such as tritium paint. The light-emitting devices require no battery power or any other form of charging, and never need servicing or maintenance. The life expectancy of the light sources is 10 years after which they would start to deteriorate.
The standard MWC G10 is one of the most tried and tested models and in its earlier variants has been in service for over 20 years, this new model shares a similar casing and whilst upgraded will be just as durable or maybe even more so.
The G10 SL is supplied with a heavyweight NATO webbing strap.
The back of the case bears various military markings.
