SKU:  MIL/1966/SC/OL

MWC's original watches in this range were the 12/24-hour dial format U.S. pattern watches, which are still in production today. These watches remain virtually identical in appearance to those used by American troops during the Vietnam War in the 1960s and early 1970s. The final image shows one of these original watches, which inspired the various models MWC continues to produce today.

The European pattern variants were introduced following frequent inquiries from dealers and customers who requested a similar model to the U.S. watches, but with a UK NATO-style dial. As a result, MWC developed a British dial design based on early 1970s models. These watches retain the plexiglass acrylic crystal, as this was commonly used in both American and UK military watches in the 1960s and 1970s. In fact, some UK military watches still utilize acrylic crystals today.

Although these modern watches resemble the 1960s version shown in the final image, the original models were made of plastic, as they were intended to be disposable by the U.S. military. However, plastic watches have the same limitations as the originals. To address this, the MWC design team completely reimagined the watch about 15 years ago. While maintaining the original appearance, weight, and feel, they upgraded to an all-metal construction. This change vastly improved both the durability and overall quality, while preserving the vintage aesthetic.

Looks good but but takes work to put it together.
Parts do not fit together well. Had to take a knife to trim top to make it fit. Plastic nuts and bolts. Light works well and stays lit for hours.

Looks Fantastic
Size: 1 Pack
Very easy to install, and looks very nice. It’s made from a durable composite material, not metal, but it’s built well. No one would know that it isn’t metal. On the pricier side for solar lamps, but you’re buying a quality product.

Good product for the price!
Size: 1 Pack, Size: 1 Pack
This light is not bad for being a solar powered product. I have it in the area that receives most of the days sunlight as this area gets full sun (that side of the house gets blasted). The light is on for about 6-7 hours. I am thinking of buying another one. Just note that the housing is plastic.... not super high quality, but it gets the job done for the price point.

More expensive and worth it
Color: Bright White Accent Light
Walk away from those 6 for $49. solar lights and buy some of these. They will cost more in the short run but will save you money in the long run. They are very well made of sturdy aluminum from the light head down to the stake. They have glass crystalline lenses. They look good on the path-modern and somewhat understated. These come in 2 varieties-a 40 lumen and a 60 lumen. I strongly recommend the 60 lumen variety. Aside from being brighter, they have a better solar cell and battery. My lights are still on at 6AM after a prior sunny day which is a new experience for me. They also have external, easily accessible on/off and light color (amber vs bright white) toggle switches. I find this feature unique and a game changer. GamaSonic has really listened to customers and created a noticeably better solar light that checks all of the boxes. I strongly endorse this solar light.

Looks nice but unreliable quality
I was so excited about these lights when they were delivered. Looked well made and illuminated brilliantly. Although, out of the four that I ordered, the first one stoped lighting up the orange light and never lite again after only a months use. The second one stopped illuminating the orange light followed by both lights not illuminating at all after a month in a half of use.
