MWC Classic 40mm Stainless Steel Aviator Watch with Hybrid Movement and 100m Water Resistance

SKU: SM/AV/1

This MWC classic aviator model is 100m water-resistant, featuring a solid stainless steel case, a screw-down crown, and a screw-down case back. The timeless design, retro-style crown, and low-maintenance, highly accurate hybrid movement make this a unique and highly desirable timepiece.

MWC hybrid watches combine the best of both modern and traditional watchmaking technology. They feature elements from both conventional automatic and quartz models, resulting in a hybrid, ultra-low maintenance movement. The hybrid movement is powered by a battery, using coils and a quartz oscillator, while the hands are mechanically actuated and controlled. Essentially, the movement is mechanical but powered by a battery and regulated by a crystal, lacking only a spring. This watch is ideal for buyers who prefer the sweep secondhand and hacking function of automatic watches, combined with the hassle-free maintenance benefits of a quartz watch.
