SKU Code: CHR20/PVD/HY

The MWC PVD NATO chronograph is based on the specifications used by leading manufacturers of NATO chronographs, enhanced with several improvements for better operation and visibility. Although designed to meet the needs of military aircrews, it is also ideal for airline and GA pilots. The case size is 45.5mm, and the chronograph uses a VK68 hybrid movement.

Key Features

This chronograph includes a 24-hour (Military Time) sub-dial, allowing users to track time in a 24-hour format. This feature is crucial for personnel working extended periods without natural daylight exposure.

The main difference between hybrid watches and mechanical chronographs is their power source. Mechanical models are powered by a mainspring regulated by a balance wheel and controlled by precision levers, hammers, and gears. In contrast, hybrid chronographs are powered by a battery, regulated by a quartz crystal, and controlled by precision mechanical components. This combination provides the appearance and feel of a mechanical watch with the accuracy of quartz.

Hybrid Movement Benefits

  • Operation: Hybrid watches outwardly function like mechanical ones. The top button provides a crisp response, starting the timing hand in 1/5 sec increments. The stop button at 5 o’clock has the same crisp feel, with the hand snapping back to 12 upon reset.
  • Accuracy: The factory rating for accuracy is +/-20 seconds per month, superior to mechanical chronographs, which are typically accurate to +/-2 or 3 seconds per day.
  • Maintenance: Hybrids require significantly less maintenance and are more reliable in the long term.
  • Convenience: Ideal for those owning multiple watches, as hybrids do not need winding before use. A battery swap every few years and a water-resistance check is all that’s required.

Covert Matt Black PVD Finish

The special matt black non-reflective PVD finish is often specified in military contracts for special forces and anti-terrorist units. The PVD process alters the color of the steel at a molecular level, ensuring it will not deteriorate under heavy usage, unlike painted finishes which can fade or rub off.

Benefits of Sapphire Crystal

Synthetic sapphire is extremely strong, shatter-resistant, and scratch-resistant, making it ideal for military and security personnel, police officers, and active outdoor enthusiasts. These groups account for over 70% of our customer base. Over 90% of incidents involving cracked crystals occur with mineral glass. Even hardened mineral crystals cannot match the durability of sapphire. The sapphire crystal is heat-treated to remove internal stresses and coated with two layers of anti-reflective coating. While more expensive, the superior longevity, resilience, and performance justify its use in higher-end watches.


This MWC PVD NATO chronograph combines the reliability and precision of modern technology with the rugged design and functionality needed for professional use. Its robust features and user-friendly design make it an exceptional choice for both professionals and enthusiasts.

    Healed my broken skin
    Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
    I’ve been using Eucerin Advanced Repair Body Cream for my very dry skin, and it works great. It absorbs quickly, is not greasy, and keeps my skin moisturized all day. I also like that it is fragrance-free, so it does not irritate my sensitive skin. A little goes a long way, and the large jar lasts a long time. Highly recommend for anyone with dry skin.

    My rating
    Size: 16.9 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 16.9 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
    I love this lotion so much. It makes my skin hydrated and soft. Before, my skin would be dry and crack away from each other. My friends and some online dermatologists recommended this and it has been extremely helpful. If you use a scented lotion. Wear this lotion. Then the scented lotion and then the body oil. Seems like a lot of steps but this will help your skin in the future and will result in less dermatologist visits. It’s very soft and the first ingredient is water meaning it’s a water based moisturiser so the consistency is very good!

    Always a Favorite of Mine
    Size: 16.9 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
    This lotion is fantastic for dry skin. It moisturizes without feeling greasy, and it absorbs well so you’re not walking around feeling like you just dipped your arms in oil. I really like that it’s unscented, which makes it great if you’re sensitive to fragrances or just don’t want your lotion competing with your perfume. It leaves skin feeling soft and hydrated for hours. I’ve tried a lot of lotions over the years, but this one does a really good job when your skin is seriously dry and needs real moisture. Overall, a great everyday lotion that actually works. My skin definitely approves.

    Problem finally solved! This stuff works.
    Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
    I'm 60 and have very dry skin despite eating healthful food and drinking plenty of water. I've tried every moisturizer available and I've finally found one that leaves my skin hydrated. It's the perfect thickness -- not too thick like a paste and not a thin lotion -- so it's emollient and soaks in without tugging on my skin during application. This will be my after shower body lotion from now on. I'm wearing shorts and sleeveless tops again! 🥰
