GG-W-113 - 1960s Pattern US Military Watch
- Spec MIL-W-46374B
- Replica (very convincing recreation)
- Made for US veterans association
- 17 jewels - Mechanical movement
- Hack System
In October 1962 the US Government set down a specification for infantry watches which became known as GG-W-113 this was MIL-W-3818B which replaced MIL-W-3818A from March 1956.
The original full specification details can still be found with a quick search on Google!
In January 2009 MWC were approached by a US veterans association, who asked MWC to examine the viability of making a watch which was indistinguishable in appearance from the original watches.
The originals were made during the Vietnam war by several military watch company’s, including Hamilton, Bulova and Benrus.
MWC were sent samples of both watches to examine along with the original specification. The result is a watch which is very close to the original and is a very convincing recreation, using a high grade fully jewelled hand wound movement.
The originals are now almost impossible to find in good sound condition.
