SKU Code: NAM/OL/MET/KH

Our Vietnam Watches are virtually identical in appearance to those used by American troops during the Vietnam War in the 1960s and early 1970s. While these watches closely resemble the original 1968 model shown in the final image, the originals were made of plastic and considered disposable by the US military. The initial specification aimed to create a cheap and simple "campaign" watch for infantry and other MOS (Military Occupational Specialties). The W46374 spec was a cost-effective alternative to the MIL-W-3818B, calling for a non-maintainable watch in a plastic case, powered by a non-hacking movement. It required minimal water resistance, protection from shock and vibration, extreme temperature tolerance, and sufficient luminosity for nighttime visibility. The original 1968 watches had a green olive plastic case and a diameter of just under 36mm, making this watch identical in terms of dimensions and general appearance.

Transition to Metal Casings:

Over 20 years ago, we decided to transition from plastic to metal construction for the entire range of these watches. This change addressed the shortcomings of the original plastic models. The MWC design team rethought the watch while retaining the original appearance. This upgrade to a metal case and a hackable movement resulted in watches that are vastly superior in durability and overall quality to the 1968 originals while maintaining the original watch's appearance.

Specifications:

  • Thickness: 8 mm
  • Strap Size: 18 mm
  • Strap Type: US Pattern Military Strap
  • Width Including Crown: 36 mm
  • Width Excluding Crown: 33 mm
  • Crystal Diameter: 29 mm
  • Movement: Hackable Quartz
  • Battery Type: R626SW, Energizer 377, or equivalent
  • Supplied in a tin

The final image shows one of the original watches from 1968.

      Yet another great set!
      Format: Hardcover
      Due to hurricane irma in my area, this set was delayed to me. I was also out of power for a while, but now I have power and I also got my package today! I did pre-order this set along with the elder scrolls online book set. The set itself is huge. Has that good old classic skyrim artwork in the front there and inside it has the dragon. It's held together by a magnetic clip, which I do always enjoy. Now let's get to the good stuff, the books themselves. These are basically re-published versions of the original skyrim library if you haven't already bought those separately. Right off the bat I will recommend this set to collectors, and anyone who loves elder scrolls lore. Book 1 Or should I say Volume 1 Is about the histories, which are the history of the land itself, a brief history about morrowind, and of course dragons. I for one was trying to collect an in game collection of books, but there is so many of them that it's simply easier to read this for the entire thing. All in all, the histories are pretty intriguing because most of the history explained in the game is usually through someone else's perspective. Overall a great read. Volume 2 is about Man, Mer and Beast. Which basically goes into every single detail about all the races in skyrim, along with their traditions and the way they live kind of thing. The beast section is just that, detailed information about the beasts of skyrim, their legends and how they are in the wild. The last 2 sections are about warfare and fractions. Fractions history that you may or may not know like the companions or whatever fraction you joined in game. And warfare which is about the art of warfare and it's stories. Volume 3 the last volume is about the arcane, basically magic in skyrim it's history, it's religion, and it's stories. Yep there is a lot of history behind magic in skyrim if they made a whole book about it. The last section is interesting that it talks about Aedra and Daedra, Which is like Angels and Devils in skyrim simple terms. I mean most of the daedra are unpredictable despite their evil nature in the game. Like that daedra prince who just wants drinking party's and such, or that other daedra who just enjoyes tricking people. Overall though they are supposed to be evil. If you summon one of those guys in town I think you get an instant bounty. Anyways, the history about it is very intriguing. The books themselves by the way are just fantastic. AAA quality right here, Nice to the touch as well as its engravings. As like for the elder scrolls online set, you do not have to worry about bending the pages because of the books design. Every page as always has some kind of illustration next to it, giving every page in all these books some life to it. Although this one is a lot more text heavy than the elder scrolls online lore books. This set is fantastic! I wish Bethesda created sets about the older lore like morrowind or oblivion, but that's just my opinion. If they ever did more books
