Selecting kit that works when everything else is compromised isn't about fashion. It's about operational reliability in the conditions you actually face.
We've been building watches with both 316L stainless steel and military-grade polycarbonate since the MX10 was supplied to UK Special Forces. Neither material is inherently "better." What matters is matching the case to your actual requirements, whether that's a 48-hour exercise, a dive to 30 metres, or simply durable tactical kit that doesn't fail during a 12-hour shift.
The professionals we serve tell us the same thing repeatedly: the "best" material depends entirely on specific mission profile. When selecting your tactical watch, consider your primary operational environment. Our tritium illumination, Swiss movements, and sapphire crystals remain consistent across both steel and polycarbonate models. The case material choice optimises the watch for your actual requirements. | | Selecting kit that works when everything else is compromised isn't about fashion.
