SKU Code: MKIIIPVD100M/EX2

The Limited Edition MWC Mk III Automatic in black PVD is supplied on a high-visibility orange NATO strap and includes an additional black strap. This model is a modern recreation of the classic 1950s military watches produced to the UK Ministry of Defence reference 6B/346 Mk XI specification.

While faithful to the appearance of the original era, the Mk III incorporates significant modern upgrades in reliability, durability, and performance. At its heart is a robust 24-jewel automatic movement with a hacking function, delivering improved accuracy and dependable everyday use.

Vintage Military Style, Modern Performance

In today’s cost-conscious defence environment, watches of this quality are increasingly uncommon, with many organisations opting for lower-cost alternatives. Historically, armed forces sourced watches from prestigious makers such as Rolex, IWC, Omega, and Longines. Although that era has passed, the demand for authentic military styling combined with modern engineering remains strong.

The Mk III has been produced with no compromise in specification, featuring a high-grade movement and a classic brushed steel case inspired by 1950s and 1960s service watches. Each case is manufactured and hand-finished in Zürich to an exceptionally high standard, with finishing quality that surpasses most current military-issued watches.

Matte Black Covert PVD Finish

The specialist non-reflective black PVD finish is particularly suited to military, police, and security use where discretion is essential. Unlike painted coatings often found on lower-cost watches, Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD) bonds with the steel at a molecular level, creating a finish that is highly resistant to fading, rubbing, and everyday wear.

Under normal use, the finish remains intact for many years, though it may be damaged by severe gouging or extreme abrasion.

Built for Real-World Use

The Mk III features both a screw-down crown and screw caseback, ensuring excellent water resistance, robustness, and long-term reliability in demanding environments.

Why Choose Sapphire Crystal?

Many customers ask why sapphire crystal is considered superior to mineral glass.

Synthetic sapphire is widely regarded as the premium material for watch crystals due to its outstanding scratch resistance, impact strength, and clarity. These qualities make it especially popular with military personnel, police officers, security professionals, and those with active lifestyles.

In our experience, the vast majority of cracked watch crystals involve mineral glass. Even hardened mineral crystal cannot match sapphire when subjected to demanding conditions.

Sapphire achieves its strength through a specialist manufacturing and heat-treatment process that removes internal stresses and improves resilience. It is then finished with anti-reflective coating for improved legibility in bright light.

Because of its higher production cost, sapphire crystal is generally reserved for higher-end watches — offering superior durability, longevity, and performance.

Tropical Fringe Fun for My Summer Outfits
Color: Natural, Color: Natural
I am absolutely obsessed with this straw purse because it feels like a vacation in my hand. The first thing I noticed is how the raffia fringe has this playful half moon shape that looks like a little lion mane but in a very high fashion way. My daughter even joked that it looks like a giant fancy taco which makes it such a fun and unique piece to carry around. It is incredibly lightweight which is a huge relief because I do not want to carry a heavy bag when the weather is hot. Even though it looks compact on my mannequin, it is surprisingly roomy inside and fits my phone and all my daily essentials without feeling stuffed. The magnetic closure is quite strong so I do not have to worry about my things falling out while I am walking around a summer party or a night out. The neutral tan and cream colors in the fringe make it very easy to match with almost any outfit I own. I really appreciate the small metal brand patch on the front because it gives the bag a more polished and expensive look than a typical straw tote you might find at a souvenir shop. One thing to keep in mind is that the raffia is very textured so you should probably be careful with delicate silk fabrics so it does not snag. It feels very sturdy and well made for something that is woven from grass and I love how the fringe adds so much movement when I am moving around. This bag is definitely going to be my go to accessory for the rest of the season because it is both stylish and very practical for my needs.
