The history of this watch:
The watch P.W.C (Practical Watch Co.), manufactured in the 1950s, holds a special place in watchmaking history due to its association with the Korean War. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of the field and military life, these watches were supplied to soldiers during this significant conflict that took place from 1950 to 1953.

These watches were appreciated for their robustness, reliability, and legibility under all conditions. They had to withstand extreme environments, humidity, dust, and shocks, making them a vital tool for reconnaissance missions and field operations. Their design was functional, with clear dials and often luminous for optimal night visibility.

The P.W.C watch from the Korean War era is more than just a timekeeper; it represents a piece of military and watchmaking history. Each watch bears witness to the challenges faced by those who wore them and the technical innovations implemented to meet the needs of the army. These watches are not only collectibles for watchmaking enthusiasts but also for those interested in military history and human ingenuity in the face of war challenges.
