CWC G10

This is an example of the CWC G10 British military issue quartz watch. This particular watch was issued to the Royal Navy in 1990.

The G10 is an accurate and reliable watch with the advantage of a “battery hatch” to allow the user to change battery easily. The movement fitted to the G10 is not clear but is reputed to be (in many watches) a high quality jeweled ETA Swiss variant similar to that fitted to some Omega watches.

 I don’t know if this is true.

My G10 keeps very good time even for a quartz based watch.

A nice example in good condition.

  

I have been fortunate in getting another example of the CWC G10 for my collection. The one on the left is a 1995 Royal Marines issue in even better condition than my original 1990 Royal Navy G10.

This link is to the MoD specification drafted in 1980 for the G10/98 quartz watch:-
