Precista 300 metre Automatic Diver |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 |
The Precista 300 follows the tradition of paying homage to military and military-style wristwatches of the past, in this case it follows and improves on the specification of British Ministry of Defence Standard 66-4, Part 1 Issue 2. This revision is dated 1 January 1971. This is arguably the most popular military dive watch today and good examples are keenly sought and command a high price. This edition bearing the Precista name has been faithfully manufactured to the original specification, improving on it where appropriate. The most significant improvement is the addition of an anti-magnetic movement cover, movement holder and soft iron dial giving the watch anti-magnetic resistance to 80,000 A/m (Amp metres), the same as modern day IWC and Sinn watches. This has increased the thickness of the watch by 3mm over the original. Case Solid stainless steel case with brushed steel sides, polished top and back. Unidirectional bezel with luminous numbers in the bezel insert sealed with hardened acrylic. Screw back and screw down crown; the crown assembly is identical to that employed in the "Dreadnought" and has been tested to 2000 metres. Domed acrylic crystal in keeping with the original design. The dial is soft iron anti-magnetic and the polished steel sword hands are filled with Super Luminova, as are the indices. Each watch has its own unique serial number, which also identifies the date of manufacture, engraved on the case back. Dimensions 40mm diameter across the bezel and 46.6mm to the tip of the signed crown. 47mm lug tip to lug tip and 14.3mm thick tot he top of the domed crystal. Lug spacing is 20mm and the watch head without strap weighs 90 grammes. Movement ETA 25 jewel automatic, calibre 2824-2 (standard). Supplied in box with 12 months guarantee and choice of Time Factors Aviator, Rally or Carbon strap, please indicate which in the "comments" box on the order form, thank you. Also supplied with a spare crystal and tube of Polywatch.Click on any of the thumbnail images below to enlarge the image |

Precista Commander Titan with Tritium Tubes |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
If you have been following the Forum, you will have seen occasional requests for a military style watch with the luminous tritium glass vials. It's no secret that these are manufactured by MB-Microtec in Switzerland and it's no secret that they won't sell the tubes to anyone else, only manufacture "on behalf of". I've had a few made with "Precista" dials, which whilst not unique, is different and the price is good. Available with choice of Rhino or NATO strap. Case Brushed titanium case with polished screw back, sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, screw down crown, unidirectional carbon fibre bezel and water resistant to 200 metres/660 feet. The black dial has luminous glass vials at each hour point and also on the hands, including the seconds hand. The vials shine pale green in colour except the vial at 12, which shines red.Dimensions 46mm diameter to the tip of the crown (40mm for bezel), 45.5mm lug tip to lug tip and 11mm thick. Lug spacing is 22mm and the watch head alone weighs just 40 grammes.Movement Ronda quartz 5 jewels with 40 month battery life and EOL (end of life indicator). Supplied with 12 months guarantee and choice of NATO or Rhino strap, please indicate which in the "comments" box on the order form, thank you.Click on any of the thumbnail images below to enlarge the image |
