About this entry

93% of key specs known. Missing: hardening.

The Type XIII (October 2022) puts a new dial (lume markers splitting the dial into quarters, date moved to 4:30) and new hands (orange-tipped seconds) from MKII's archives on the Gen 3 Paradive case, the TR-50717 platform derived from the MIL-W-50717 spec; the earlier Gen 3 dial is in paradive-gen-3-date. The three bezel inlays are variants; SKU suffixes AmB and AmK (Nytex Type I-M2 black and khaki), N (MODspec) and S (rubber, $25 more). MKII spec: 41.25mm bezel diameter, 15.54mm thick, 49.50mm end to end, 20mm lugs, 98 g without strap, double-domed press-fit sapphire with AR inside only, "Arclite Super LumiNova (green emission)", SII NE15 (NE15C in the design text) with quickset date, bead-blasted 316L, three-piece case with screw-in caseback, double gasket screw-down crown, 120-click unidirectional bezel, 200 m verified to ISO 6425, timed in 3 positions (no s/day figure); 2.50mm spring bars with 1.80mm bars included. Worn & Wound gives $895 for both aluminium bezels at launch and 15.24mm thick (MKII's 15.54mm kept, which W&W's 2018 Gen 3 review also measured); that review gives the asymmetric case as 44.5mm wide against the 41.25mm bezel. Solid caseback read from MKII's photos. On 2026-10-25 the aluminium listings were sold out, marked "SCRATCH AND DENT" and on sale at $760.75 ($785.75 on rubber) against regular prices of $895 and $920. The acrylic-inlay listing, titled "(2.5 mm spring bar version)", has no spec or tags and asks $445 ($475 on rubber); with MKII's separate $450 Paradive deposit page that totals about the $895 price, so it looks like a balance payment and isn't recorded as a price.
