DESCRIPTION
The watch also benefits from Luminova for improved nighttime visibility. Luminova functions like a light battery: after sufficient activation by sunlight or artificial light, it glows in the dark until the luminosity gradually fades. Larger markings are often visible throughout the night. This activation and emission process is repeatable indefinitely, and Luminova does not suffer from aging. Additionally, Luminova pigments are completely free of radioactivity.
The special covert matte black, non-reflective PVD finish is often specified in military contracts for special forces units, anti-terrorist units, and various covert operations. In the PVD process, the steel is not black all the way through. Instead, the color is created by a special chemical PVD plating process, which is vastly superior to the painted finish used on some lower-quality watches that can easily fade or rub off. The PVD process alters the color of the steel at a molecular level, ensuring it does not deteriorate even during heavy usage, although it can be damaged if the case is gouged by a piece of metal or worn down by heavy abrasion against rocks or similar surfaces.
Our G10 is one of our most tried and tested models, with earlier variants in service for over 40 years. A large number of military personnel have evaluated this model and its predecessors over lengthy periods in a variety of deployments, and the feedback has always been very favorable. If you are looking for a solid black stainless steel military watch, this would be an ideal choice. Factors that greatly contribute to this watch's durability include the screw-down locking crown, which offers superior protection compared to more vulnerable push-in crowns, and the sapphire crystal, which is both shatter and scratch resistant.
The back of the case bears various contract markings, and the watch is supplied with a black 20mm NATO webbing strap.
