While it closely resembles our current models, it features a more compact case, making it visually indistinguishable from the originals, as seen in the final image. However, significant improvements have been made, including a 60-month battery life compared to the original's 18-month lifespan in the 1980s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImproved Battery Life:\u003c\/strong\u003e Now features a 60-month battery life, a significant upgrade from the original 18-month lifespan.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnhanced Nighttime Visibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Utilizes Super Luminova for improved nighttime visibility while retaining the historical encircled T on the dial.

Super Luminova pigments, which are 100% free of radioactivity, replace the original tritium paint, addressing aging issues associated with old radioactive pigments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePVD Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe special covert matte black non-reflective PVD finish used for this watch is often specified in military contracts for special forces units and anti-terrorist units, as well as for various covert operations. The PVD process chemically alters the color of the steel at a molecular level, providing a finish vastly superior to painted finishes, which can fade or rub off. This ensures the finish will not deteriorate even during heavy usage, though it can be damaged by severe abrasion or gouging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36mm (excluding crown), approximately 39mm (including crown)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLug to Lug:\u003c\/strong\u003e 42.5mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLug Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrap Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLug Type: \u003c\/strong\u003eFixed Solid Bars\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.1mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e 316L Black PVD Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCaseback:\u003c\/strong\u003e 316L Black PVD Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrown:\u003c\/strong\u003e 316L Black PVD Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrystal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plexiglass \/ Acrylic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 ATM (50m\/165ft)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBattery:\u003c\/strong\u003e 371 with around 60 months of battery life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Swiss Ronda 705 with date window\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrap:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black 18mm Nylon Military Webbing Strap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe back of the case bears a unique serial number.
