GG-W-113 U.S 1960s Pattern Automatic Military Watch with Shatter and Scratch Resistant Sapphire Box Crystal
SKU: GG-W-113 The GG-W-113 infantry watch originated in October 1962 when the U.S. government established specifications for military timepieces under MIL-W-3818B, which replaced the earlier MIL-W-3818A specification from March 1956. These watches were primarily manufactured by Hamilton, Bulova, and Benrus during the Vietnam War, and they remain iconic in military watch history. In January 2009, MWC collaborated with a U.S. veterans association to recreate this legendary model. Using two original watches and their detailed specifications as references, MWC developed a modern homage. This recreation features a 24-jewel automatic movement with a hacking function, maintaining the spirit of the original hand-wound movements while incorporating a rotor for automatic self-winding. It also retains the ability for manual winding, offering versatility. In 2023, MWC further enhanced the GG-W-113 by introducing a box sapphire crystal. This upgrade provides superior shatter and scratch resistance
