05-B: MK.X WWW / Dirty Dozen Dial Coaster - 1945
Commissioned by the British MoD, the MK.X gained the “Dirty Dozen” nickname from the twelve manufacturers tasked with its production. Featuring a six o’clock subdial and radium lume markers, it replaced the white-dialed ATP predecessor and is marked with the Pheon military arrow symbol.
06-B: Mil-W-50717 Type-1 Dial Coaster - 1961
A highly distinctive dive dial design that instead of numbers features a triangle 12 and rectangles for each 3, 6 and 9 hour position. Equipped with tritium luminous paint at each marker, its case features an asymmetrical profile that served as an integrated crown protector.
07-B: Trench Dial Coaster - 1918
Trench watches were the first mass adoption of wrist-worn military wristwatches, and are often found with angular Gothic-style numerals. Radium paint did not adhere well to the enamel dial surfaces, so indentations were made to anchor the lume, with a double upper dot to aid orientation in complete darkness.
08-B: MK.XI / 6B-346 Coaster - 1949
Commissioned by the British MoD under strict specifications, the MKXI was issued to the RAF and several other air forces and applications. Equipped with a hacking function and distinctive triangle and baton markers, it continued to be manufactured into the early '80s.
