MWC 24 Jewel 300m Automatic Military Divers Watch with Tritium GTLS Illumination, Sapphire Crystal and Ceramic Bezel

Product Details

SKU Code: SUB/SS/24TA

This military-specification diver’s watch features Tritium GTLS tubes, a scratch- and impact-resistant sapphire crystal, and a ceramic bezel. As one of our latest automatic 24-jewel mechanical military diver’s watches, it offers exceptional value for a self-luminous automatic diver’s watch with such a high specification.

Superior Night Visibility

The Gaseous Tritium Light Sources (GTLS) make this one of the most visible watches in low-light or nighttime conditions. The Tritium vials on the H3 dial are up to 100 times brighter than standard luminous dials, ensuring instant readability at a glance. 

Dimensions

The watch measures 45mm including the crown and 40mm excluding the crown. It is designed to fit 20mm webbing straps, making it compatible with other MWC military diver’s watches and many leading brands. This provides a wide selection of U.S. pattern nylon webbing straps and European NATO straps for customization.

Why Choose Sapphire Crystal?

Many customers ask about the benefits of sapphire crystal compared to standard mineral glass. Synthetic sapphire is one of the strongest materials used for watch crystals, offering exceptional scratch and shatter resistance.

This makes it highly appealing to military personnel, security forces, police officers, and outdoor enthusiasts, who account for over 70% of our customers. From our experience, more than 90% of cracked watch crystals in accidental damage cases involve mineral glass, even when hardened.

What makes sapphire crystal so strong?

After manufacturing, sapphire glass undergoes heat treatment to eliminate internal stresses that could weaken the material. It is then crafted into watch crystals and coated with two layers of anti-reflective treatment for improved visibility.

Interestingly, sapphire crystal is now used in the latest iPhone screens due to its extreme durability. While it does increase the cost of a watch, it is a premium feature typically found in high-end timepieces, providing superior longevity and resilience in harsh conditions.

    *Some countries are notoriously slow to process goods on arrival, including Israel, Hong Kong, Macau, Mexico, South Africa, and some South American countries. Significant delays can also occur in other countries in Africa. For time-sensitive deliveries, we recommend using UPS, DHL, or FedEx.

    All shipping estimates exclude Saturdays and Sundays.

    While we strive to deliver within the above timeframes, they are guides, and delivery cannot be guaranteed. We are not responsible for delays caused by couriers or any national postal service. If your goods are not delivered within the estimated time, please contact us at admin@mwc.watch, and we will do our best to resolve the issue promptly. We are not liable for any loss caused by late delivery.

    Our delivery charges cover the cost of shipping to you but do not include import charges and administration fees to clear the goods when entering your country if applicable.

    It is the purchaser's responsibility to understand that charges may be levied and to pay all subsequent import taxes and duties on goods shipped to their country. If items are returned to MWC due to rejected payment, subsequent charges incurred (such as import duty and processing costs) will be deducted from any refund issued. For more information, please contact accounts@mwc-distribution.com

    If you need to clarify any details regarding local taxes for your location, please contact us before placing an order. For clarification, goods shipped to the EU can be dispatched from our EU location if ordered at https://mwc.eu/, and we also have a dedicated UK shipping center at https://mwcwatches.co.uk/. In the United States, orders under $800 do not incur taxes or fees. In Australia, orders up to AU$1000 are tax-free.

    We do not accept liability for goods lost after delivery to a PO Box. We reserve the right to cancel orders where the delivery address is a PO Box. Similarly, we do not accept liability for goods lost after confirmed delivery to APO or BFPO locations.

    Customer Notification: It is the customer's responsibility to notify us if goods are not received within 21 days of the estimated delivery date. If no notification is made within this period, the buyer is deemed to have received the goods.

    Safe Place Deliveries

    Some delivery companies allow for delivery without a signature, leaving the item in a "safe place" (e.g., shed, garage, porch). If you choose this option, it is at your own risk. We initially send items by a secure service requiring a signature or proof of delivery. Using a "safe place" increases the risk of theft. We advise ensuring deliveries require a signature to ensure safe receipt.

    Failed Deliveries

    If an item is refused and returned to us, we will refund the order less the outbound and inbound shipping charges once the item is received back at our packing and shipping center. For business locations, please notify the receiving personnel of the expected delivery to avoid refusals. Usually, we will be notified of delivery issues and will email you for instructions. It is important to act quickly to avoid return and associated costs.
