Watch Description

The Automatic version of the 1970s type tonneau case, made to the same spec as the Mellor-72 but with the Sellita SW200-1 (26 jewels) automatic movement. Rugged and reliable, the W10 GS Navigator does not require winding when worn regularly. Built to the same defence standard as all our military watches.

The original mechanical handwound W10 is a classic military timepiece that is very collectable, with many still working perfectly after military service and 40+ years. A true testament to the build quality of CWC.
