1976 CWC W10 British Military Issued 35mm Watch
Our 1976 CWC W10 Military Watch has a 35mm tonneau Monocoque (monocoque in French means hull or single shell) brushed stainless steel case. Roughly 10,000 units were issued to the British Army. The curve of the case ends with fixed spring bars, and its curved flanks lead to a lug-to-lug length of 41mm and a case thickness of 10.5mm, ensuring a comfortable fit on your wrist. An original worn domed crystal sits above a matte black dial. The outer minute track has lumed batons and pips at the hours, with lumed Arabic numerals marking the hours. Long sword hands coated in lume are complemented by a tapered second hand. Text is minimal with “CWC” and a “T” in a circle, indicating the lume is Tritium. The Broad Arrow {pheon} has been used to mark property of the government or Crown since the 17th century, sitting at the 6 o’clock position, signifying its Military DNA. On the reverse a case back with the reference codes: W10 British Army. The 13-digit number is the NATO Stock Number (NSN). 66 refers to Instruments and Laboratory equipment, and the 45 refines that to Time Measuring Instruments. The next 9-digit number makes up the NATO Item Identification Number (NIIN). 523-8290 refers specifically to the CWC manually wound-powered general service issue watch. The final two digits refer to the date of issue, this one was issued in 1976.
