Classic 1940s/1950s Military Automatic Watch

This automatic self-winding MWC military watch pays tribute to the iconic British forces designs of the 1940s and 1950s. Featuring a small subsidiary seconds dial, it faithfully captures the style of the originals while integrating modern enhancements for durability and reliability.

  • Vintage Look, Modern Performance: The watch retains the vintage aesthetic of the original models, including the appearance of an acrylic crystal, thanks to a modern sapphire box crystal that is virtually indistinguishable but far more scratch and shatter resistant.
  • Upgraded Movement: While the original featured a hand-wound mechanical movement, this model uses a 21-jewel self-winding automatic movement that can also be manually wound if preferred.
  • Robust Build: Constructed from Military Grade 316L stainless steel with a satin finish for a rugged yet classic look.
  • Enhanced Legibility: Black dial with luminous markings and a subsidiary second-hand dial for precise timekeeping.
  • Historically Accurate Strap: Comes with a canvas strap styled after those used by the British military during the 1940s and 50s.

Well constructed! Tight Fit.
Color: Black, Size: 1
Great construction, very durable. A bit tight to install, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. It will certainly keep it from ever falling off.

Good hitch cover
Color: Black, Size: 1
This is a well made,tight fitting hitch cover but the holding strap is too small to go over the hitch lip so I used my wife’s hair dryer to heat it up a skosh and voila! Fit like a charm! I recommend this cover.

Built specifically for Toyota Tacoma models, this grab handle offers a secure grip for entering and exiting the vehicle while also enhancing the rugged appearance of the interior. One of the first things I noticed about the bgucar Driver Side A-Pillar Grab Handle is how sturdy and comfortable it feels once installed. The handle provides excellent support when getting into the truck, especially for lifted Tacomas or vehicles with larger tires that sit higher off the ground. The construction feels durable and well-made, with solid materials that match the rugged nature of the Tacoma.

The grab handle is designed for a straightforward fit on compatible Toyota Tacoma models, and the included hardware makes the process relatively simple.

Whether climbing into the truck, navigating uneven terrain, or assisting passengers, the handle adds extra confidence and convenience during entry and exit. The design also blends nicely with the Tacoma’s interior styling. It looks like a factory-style upgrade rather than an aftermarket accessory, helping maintain a clean and cohesive appearance inside the cabin. I also appreciate the added functionality during off-road trips and rough driving conditions. The grab handle offers additional stability for the driver when traveling over bumps, trails, or uneven surfaces, making the driving experience feel more secure. The finish and overall appearance are attractive and complement the rugged personality of the Tacoma. It adds a subtle but useful enhancement without looking bulky or out of place. Another benefit is the durability during long-term use. The handle remains firmly mounted without rattling or loosening, even after repeated use and exposure to varying driving conditions.

High quality grab handle for 3rd Gen Tacoma
Size: For 3rd Gen Tacoma (2016-2023), Color: Gray, Size: For 3rd Gen Tacoma (2016-2023), Color: Gray
Wanted one of these driver side grab handles for while but could only find it in black. When I saw it available in my trim color immediately ordered it. Installation was a breeze, the fit and color match is absolute perfection with a solid, firm mount. Looks and functions like OEM. This is a high quality, well designed grab handle.
