OUR HISTORY

Over half a century ago, our founder Ray Mellor - a WWII battle of the Atlantic veteran - went on to forge an illustrious career in the watch industry before starting CWC. He secured the company's first military contract in the early 1970s for the W10 mechanical general service watch and, soon after, the RAF Chronograph contract.

Since then, CWC has been at the forefront of military watch manufacturing, and our ethos stays true to the original specifications.

Cabot Watch Company (CWC), according to many sources (including Thegreynato podcast and Watchesofespionage), is arguably one of the most iconic military watch brands around today, with a history and provenance second to none.
