Hand-wound mono-pusher chronograph descended from the watch worn by WWII bomb-disposal soldiers in 1945. Brand specifications: 40mm asymmetric brushed 316L case with crown and mono-pusher, "14.8mm deep" (not stated whether the box crystal is included; recorded as the total), lug-to-lug 48.5mm; double-domed sapphire box crystal with "AR08 + AR06" anti-reflective treatment (sides not stated); sapphire display caseback; 100m with a screw-in crown; moulded X1 grade Super-LumiNova indices; black dial with Arabic numerals and the military broad arrow, centre chronograph seconds, chronograph minute counter on the right and running seconds on the left (no date). Movement: "Sellita SW510M b Top grade" / "SW510 MP", hand-wound, rhodium finish with spiral decoration, polished bevels and blued screws, 63h power reserve, 23 jewels, 28,800 vph. The page also carries a "Swiss Chronometer: Sellita movement certified for exceptional precision" panel, which the movement text does not repeat; the Top grade is recorded. The page says the MP45 also comes in an automatic version, which is not listed in the store and would be a separate model. Delivered on a black leather strap with extra rubber and NATO straps. Price GBP 2,900 ex VAT, the store's figure (GBP 3,480 including VAT on the page); sold out on 2026-10-31. Lug width and weight are not published.
