Watchlords

The Cabot Watch Company is arguably the best-known maker of British military watches. It was founded in 1972 and produced watches for a number of different applications suited to the varying demands of the different branches of the British armed services. The most ubiquitous of these is the G10, a general issue service watch produced in large numbers from 1980 until the present day. CWC estimate that about 200,000 of these watches were produced from 1980 until 2008 and were used by the British Army, Royal Navy, Royal Air Force and Royal Marines.

Good read.

The advance of quartz in military watches and clocks is interesting indeed - particularly with the advent of HAQ movements.

A CWC is still and always on my gonna get one, someday, list.
