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.

    Best wipes at a great price!
    Scent: Unscented, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 6)
    These are about the best facial cleansing wipes I've found anywhere, and if you buy the bundle it's a great bargain as well. The wipes are gentle on my sensitive skin, but do a thorough job of getting off the makeup, even mascara and eyeliner. My husband was shaking an ink cartridge the other day and black ink sprayed out all over his face and shirt. On impulse we grabbed one of my facial wipes and started to clean the ink off his face. It easily cleaned up all of the ink, even from his mustache and beard with no residue, and I only had to use two of them. That's how effective these wipes are!

    My Go-To Toner After Trying Many Others
    Scent: Unscented, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
    I’ve tried many toners over the years, including higher-end brands, and this one continues to stand out for both performance and price. It does exactly what I need without unnecessary extras. The formula feels gentle and effective, and I really appreciate that it’s alcohol free and fragrance free. Those two things are especially important to me, and this has been the only toner I’ve felt comfortable using during pregnancy. It doesn’t irritate my skin and fits easily into my daily routine. Despite the affordable price, it performs just as well—if not better—than many more expensive options I’ve used in the past. My skin feels clean and refreshed after using it, without any tightness or residue. Overall, this is a reliable, no-nonsense toner that delivers great results at a very reasonable price. If you’re looking for a simple, fragrance-free option that works well without breaking the bank, this is an easy recommendation.

    Liquid facial magic!
    Scent: Coconut Water, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
    I love this stuff. I use it daily as part of my facial routine and it has become one of those products I don’t even think about anymore because it just works. It smells good without being overpowering and does a great job of helping control excessive oil buildup on my face. Nothing harsh, nothing drying, just clean and refreshed skin. Right after using this, I follow up with a facial moisturizer and the combo works beautifully. My skin feels balanced instead of tight or angry, which is exactly what I’m going for. I know the label says men can use this as an aftershave, but that’s a hard pass for me. I stick to soothing, purpose-built post-shave products, specifically from Wholly Kaw. That stuff smells like it was handcrafted by skincare deities who truly care about your face. This toner is staying firmly in the “daily skincare” lane, where it shines. Another big plus is how gentle it is. No burning, no weird tingling, no regret. Just a calm, refreshing step that makes my skin feel like it’s being treated with respect. And the price? Under $10. That alone keeps me coming back. Honestly, I think they could charge a few dollars more for how well this performs, but I won’t complain about paying less for fantastic facial liquid magic. Simple, effective, affordable, and a permanent part of my routine. My face approves.

    Lasts awhile! Good product
    Scent: Rose Petal, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
    Cleans without overdrying. Leave skin feeling clean, no stickiness. Pleasant light scent that doesn't linger. I get my moister from other products so this one idk if it moisturizes by itself. Good value for the money, you get a lot so it lasts awhile.
