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.

Expectations not met re. bag!
Color: Navy Blue
The seller was fantastic, as he/she accepted my return and refunded me immediately. Seller gets 5 stars. Even thou this bag is a stunning Navy Blue, BEAUTIFUL stitching, beautiful zippers and liner, wrapped professionally with TLC, I could not stand the very strong smell. I don't know if the smell was due to the navy blue color/dye or not. I can't even describe the smell... besides that it's not leather. I was gifted the same bag in "light brown" and that bag smells like leather; it's like you are in Rome shopping for the real thing! I love that bag as I can wear it crossbody, shoulder or hand held. Unfortunately, it too small for me. So I thought, if I am buying bigger, let's do the dark blue. Was I wrong. I really had high expectations for this bag. :0(

Love it
Color: Sorrel
So thought I would give this purse a try. Never bought anything like this on Amazon. My much much more expensive designer brand had to be replaced. I really like this purse. It’s the perfect size and very nicely made

So cute and dressy. Fit well and bought 1/2 size smaller than usual.
I usually wear sneakers and wanted shoes that were a bit dressier for going out for dinner with my husband. I usually wear a size 7 but bought these in a size 6 1/2 as recommended. I tried them on with bulky wool blend socks that I normally wear, and they fit perfectly. Since I intend to use these boots for dress, I didn't wear them for a long period of time, but found them to be comfortable, and the heal was not too high. The top of the boot is high enough, that it would still be covered by pant legs when you sit down. I also like that the zipper opening in the side made them very easy to get on and the zipper worked very well without sticking. I also like the stacked heal vs. a higher, thinner heal. Although I used to wear 3" spike heals when I was younger, I am now 77 years old, I am more comfortable and feel safer with a thicker heal. Overall, I very much like these ankle boots, and would recommend them. I hope this review is helpful for you.

Amazing boots!
These boys are gorgeous visually, then when you put them on you can feel the cushioning inside. So comfortable! There is plenty of room in the width, I take a 7 and it for perfectly without being tight with sock on. Outside feels so soft to touch, can't believe quality for the price!

Comfortable and well made, but the white color is off
Size: 8, Color: Sand
I've owned the microsuede sand boots for over and year and they're very comfortable. I don't wear them a ton, just for a few hours here and there to church. But after a year they have no scratches or nicks, they've held up well. I just ordered them in white. They are beautiful boots, but they're not a true white. They're more of an off white. Also - be aware - they are designed with little squares all over them that are hard to see in the pictures - you have to look at them in the 3D view to see them. I liked the pattern and the look of the boots, I just wasn't happy with the color. I'm so disappointed - I returned them.
