1980 Reissue Royal Navy Divers Watch (Light Vintage only)
We have obtained a small quantity of ETA 2824-2 automatic movements for the next few limited 1980 RN divers watches.
"The 1980 RN Divers Automatic originally issued to RN Clearance Divers, NSN 0552/9237697. This watch actually superseded the Rolex MilSub on the wrists of Royal Navy divers, and its first version, with a self-winding mechanical movement, is far rarer than the Rolex it replaced." Search CWC on Hodinkee.com for the article.
This Re-issue has been produced very accurately and sympathetically and I love it. From the aging colour of the dial, to the special movement to the rareness of the original model it’s a no brained buy one before they are gone ….
I have had several CWC watches over the years and when the 1980 Re-Issue Automatic watch came back into stock, I ordered immediately. The watch is really well finished, with excellent bezel action, extremely bright lume, and a well regulated movement running at +1 second per day. i’m very happy with the watch and also the service received after ordering it.
The 1980 Reissue has been my daily wearer for the few weeks since it arrived. The fit and finish are right on, I couldn’t be happier! I’m overjoyed that I snagged it before it went out of stock.
Great looking watch and wears comfortably!
I already had the SBS quartz civil edition which I was very happy with. Used in a military context and on trips. With the history of CWC I wanted something special, and then it had to be the 1980 re issue model. And what a watch! Light vintage, polished and with historically correct bezel and markings. Looks absolutely stunning on the wrist. Glad I managed to get hold of one of the last ones! And not least, fantastic customer service.
