MWC first manufactured the predecessor to this 300m/1000ft water-resistant diver's watch between the early 1990s and 2004. This model is closely based on a watch introduced by MWC in 2005, which was the first to use tritium gas tubes. The self-luminous GTLS tubes make the watch extremely easy to read at night, with consistently bright illumination from dusk until dawn. Each hour and minute hand, as well as the hour markers, contain a brightly glowing vial of tritium gas. Although the vials contain radioactive gas, the total amount is less than the personal limit of 25 millicuries, in accordance with U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission regulations 10 CFR 30.15.

Superior Night Readability

Military watches of this type are the easiest in the world to read in low light or total darkness due to the self-activated light source, which is up to 100 times brighter than traditional luminous paint. The light-emitting tubes require no battery power or charging and need no maintenance, with a life expectancy of at least 10 years after which they can start to decline.

Rediscovery and Remake

Although this watch was discontinued by MWC 20 years ago, an interesting turn of events occurred when an MWC distributor in Australia discovered 500 brand-new quartz versions of this range in their storeroom. These watches, made between 1999 and 2001, were part of a procurement contract. When the distributor's son conducted a detailed stock check, these watches came to light. We were offered the opportunity to buy them back, and their popularity prompted us to remake the watches in the same design with significant upgrades.

Upgrades and Improvements

Advances in watch manufacturing over the past 20 years allowed us to enhance the overall specifications:

  • Movement: Automatic Miyota 8315 movement with a 60-hour power reserve, which can also be hand-wound and has hacking for synchronization.
  • Crystal: Upgraded from hardened mineral glass to sapphire, which is highly scratch and shatter-resistant.
  • Bezel: Upgraded to a 120-click bezel versus the earlier 60 or 90-click versions.
  • Tritium Tubes: Improved performance of Swiss Tritium GTLS tubes.

Historical Case Design

These watches are based on a case design originally made by the renowned Swiss case-making firm MRP S.A. Founded in 1953, MRP is now independently owned by Patrick Hauert. The case design has remained largely unchanged since the late 1970s. More information can be found on their website: MRP S.A..

Notable Users and Legacy

This case pattern has been used by various companies, including Precista, Nilax, Elvia, and Heuer (predecessors to Tag Heuer). Notable models include the Heuer 844-1 (1979) and the Chronosport Sea Quartz 30, worn by Tom Selleck in Magnum PI. Elvia continues to produce watches using this case, and MWC is a factory-authorized distributor for this brand. CWC and other companies also continue to use this case design, which has been in continuous production for over 40 years.

Benefits of Sapphire Crystal

Synthetic sapphire is the best material for watch crystals due to its strength and shatter and scratch resistance. These characteristics make it appealing to military and security personnel, police officers, and active outdoor enthusiasts, who account for over 70% of our customers. When clients have accidents resulting in a cracked crystal, over 90% involve watches with mineral glass crystals. Even hardened mineral crystals do not match sapphire's durability under adverse conditions. Sapphire crystals are heat-treated to remove internal stresses, enhancing their strength, and are made into watch crystals with two layers of anti-reflective coating. While more expensive, sapphire crystal is typically fitted to higher-end watches and is now used in the latest iPhone models.

    So far this is the perfect alternative to other wobble toy feeders. Please make a bigger size!
    Size: 1 Pack, Style: Pawbler
    Why did you pick this product vs others?: I bought the Pawbler because the two most popular wobble treat feeders on the market are plastic, and one of my dogs just absolutely destroys those in no time because he bites them and throws them rather then nudging them and then he has plastic cutting him so I am forced to throw away a costly treat toy/dispenser. I thought maybe a rubber one would work out better. So far my dogs love it, it works well spitting out their kibble, seems to be holding up and is easy to clean and feels like a good weight, not a super flimsy toy. I would love to see it made in a slightly larger size, I think this current size is good for medium dogs. It holds just under a cup of small round kibble but I would like to see one that can hold more and is slightly larger in size. I have 4 german shorthaired pointers, my test subject for this toy is mostly my 70 pounder who bites the toys instead of nudging them and throws them across the room, so it is taking a beating. I think for him a larger size would be helpful in deterring that behavior but I also think this may be too small for larger breeds. Durability: So far this toy looks just like when I bought it. It has no punctures or scratches and unscrews without problem. We have only had it a week or so but we use puzzle/toy feeders to feed our dogs lunch every day so it is pretty easy to tell which toys won't last long. Obviously, I can't speak to long-term durability at the moment, but I can say that most toys similar to this end up already scratched or punctured in a few days, so this is already sturdier when compared to what I have tried before.

    Well made and durable, not a toy the pups seek out
    Size: 1 Pack, Style: Tug
    Well made. Thought our staffies would love since they live tugging with each other. Sadly not something they seek out. We love ALL the benebone chews though!

    Durable fun enrichment toy
    Size: 1 Pack, Style: Pawbler
    I had been wanting to buy one of these kinds of toys for some time but thought that the other brands I had seen were too pricey so this was a great compromise for the price. My 5 yr old Portuguese water dog loves it. He spent 25 min playing with it the first day. The trick is to find a treat that is just big enough where it doesn’t fall out right away so it makes it challenging and fun for them. He has been chewing on it a lot for a week and it has not broken or shown signs of damage. One thing to note is that there is a small hole on the bottom of the toy so you cannot freeze liquids in it without covering the hole in some way so that would be my only complaint. Besides that it’s a great toy that keeps him busy and happy.

    Dog doesn’t care for it
    Size: 1 Pack, Style: Bone
    Hard to review product for its durability because my dog has never chewed it once. Doesn’t care about it at all. The bone feels rugged but smells like playdoh. It’s sat on the floor for over a month untouched.

    Pawbler FAIL: First time our dog bit the ball, it popped open and dumped all the kibble.
    Size: 1 Pack, Style: Pawbler
    I would not recommend! We have a 48# dog and within minutes of giving it to him, the Pawbler was open and all of the kibble was in a pile on the ground. I had washed and dried the Pawbler, added kibble, and tightened the lid as tight as possible. Imagine my surprise when, within minutes of giving it to him, the lid was off and all the kibble was on the ground. I thought it was a fluke so then I made an extra effort to make sure the lid was super tight...and the same thing happened. This time there was no food inside so he started chewing on the two parts. Within minutes of that, he'd chewed/damaged the rubber on both the body and the lid. I took it away as I didn't want him to destroy/eat any of the rubber bits. I was surprised he could even get the Pawbler in his mouth. It's heavy and he is a medium sized dog. He has the Benebone Bone, the WestPaw bone, the WestPaw ring that he chews on all of the time and none of those are showing any type of wear so to see this opened/chewed within 15 minutes makes me think this was defective. I am returning and hoping for a refund. DO NOT BUY! Poor value for the money. Not durable. Not chew resistant.
