For this specific updated model, we have been allocated the NATO Stock number NSN: 6645-99-493-1283 by the Ministry of Defence codification agency making this currently the most up-to-date approved specification - see attached image of the MOD codification sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe watch has a highly scratch resistant sapphire crystal and an incredible 10 year battery life.

The watch has a light sandblasted non reflective case, sandblasting is a process which has been used for many years by military watch manufacturers, the finish gives the watch case a matt appearance, and as a consequence it barely reflects any light. This finish is created by blasting the watch case with tiny glass or sand particles hence the reason it is referred to as sandblasted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhen we secured a contract to produce this model it was specified alongside the requirements that it be covert that it have a screw caseback, 100m water resistance, sapphire crystal and screw down crown, the result was a low maintenance and highly durable timepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe watch is supplied a current issue heat welded black NATO webbing strap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe back of the case bears various contract markings in addition to the unique serial number and NATO NSN Number.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e* A lot of people ask us what are the benefits of sapphire crystal over a standard mineral crystal? The answer is that synthetic sapphire is by far the best material for watch crystals because it is very strong and also shatter and scratch resistant, these characteristics make it very appealing to military and security personnel, police officers and people who lead active outdoor lifestyles, these groups account for over 70% of our customers. To get things into perspective we find that when clients have accidents with watches resulting in a cracked crystal over 90% are usually watches with mineral glass crystals, even factoring in that we use hardened mineral crystals they still do not come close to sapphire for durability under adverse conditions. The reason that sapphire crystals are so strong is that after the sapphire glass is manufactured it is also heat-treated to remove its internal stresses—which can cause weakness—it is then made into the watch crystals and two layers of anti-reflective coating are applied, interestingly sapphire crystal is now used on the latest iPhone. Of course sapphire crystal comes at a price hence you find that it's normally only fitted to higher end watches.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MWC - Military Watch Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48266288431407,"sku":"SKU Code: G10\/100UKGPV","price":269.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/4655\/0063\/files\/23-09-MWC-G10-100UKG-FRONT-Web-1500.jpg?v=1702603712"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/4655\/0063\/collections\/DL-Ready-Room.jpg?v=1782507409","url":"https:\/\/milspecwatchgroup.com\/collections\/ready-room.oembed","provider":"MILSPEC WATCH GROUP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
