Polished and brushed surfaces transition with crisp edges. A lug to lug length of 50mm and a thickness of 14.5mm gives the watch an excellent wrist presence. On the right side, a signed crown. A wide stainless steel bezel has a black 60-minute insert, the numerals are coated in Super-LumiNova Old Radium. A double domed crystal sits above a matte black dial. The hourly disc and baton indexes are coated in Super-LumiNova Old Radium for that vintage appeal. Slender sword hands have the same luminescence application. The text is precisely printed with the Seawolves insignia at 6 o’clock. On the reverse, a screw-down case back. Inside an automatic Miyota Cal. 8215, 21 jewels, 21,600 beats per hour. The watch comes with two 20mm NATO straps with a signed buckle and comes with its WMT presentation box and papers.


Personal Note

A fantastic looking watch for the money, that is exactly what WMT is getting right! They certainly aren't for everyone and some people look very poorly on homages, that's also ok, but for those like myself who can appreciate them for what they are, WMT is the ones in the light at this moment!
