HISTORY & DESIGN

The history and details behind this watch.

Our Royal Army W-10 recreates a lasting classic associated with Britain’s Army, Navy and Air Force.

Its curved case is a tonneau design—“tonneau” is French for “barrel.” This distinctive form was produced by Hamilton and CWC. The watch was designated W10 for the Army and carried a 6B reference in Royal Air Force service. It is a design used by the British military over many years.

W-10 standard dial

Following the British Defence Standard issued on 19 May 1971, the black dial displays bold white Arabic numerals. Above 6 o’clock is the broad arrow, a mark identifying British government property.

The circled “T” below 12 o’clock indicated the use of tritium luminous paint on the historical watch. Our recreation retains this mark as part of the design but uses non-radioactive LumiNova.

Five strap choices

Choose from grey nylon NATO, olive fabric, brown Crazy Horse leather, stainless-steel Bamboo, or holeless green fabric. See the selector above for prices and available photographs.

Bamboo bracelet

This traditional British military-style bracelet is made from stainless steel yet remains light and strong. Worn directly on the wrist or over a jacket, it allows the time to be checked quickly—an appealing choice for motorcyclists, too. It can be attached to the watch and adjusted without tools.
