The history of this watch :
The P.W.C. (Practical Watch Co.) watch, manufactured in the 1950s, occupies a special place in watchmaking history because of its association with the Korean War. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of field and military life, these watches were supplied to soldiers during the Korean War, a landmark conflict that ran 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 shock, making them a vital tool for reconnaissance missions and field operations. Their design was functional, with clear and often luminescent dials for optimum visibility at night.

The Korean War-era P.W.C. watch is more than just a timepiece; it represents a piece of military and watchmaking history. Each watch bears witness to the challenges faced by those who wore them, and to the technical innovations that were 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 the challenges of war.
