·A '68 SmithS 6B is a rare thing isn't it? Usually '67 if I remember. There is a list of them on MWR too I think to try and assess how many were actually issued. Lovely thing, I am happy with my common W10...lol
1967: c.1,000 based on known serials
1968: c.250 based on known serials
I love these watches and my 6B is a definite keeper. Good, reliable, no-nonsense field watch!

·Yes, most are '67s. I think the consensus on numbers for them over on MWR is:
1967: c.1,000 based on known serials
1968: c.250 based on known serials

·As many as that? I thought the total was thought to be around 300, but I haven't looked at the stickie for a long time.
And, let’s face it, you don’t see THAT many people wearing W10s out in the wild! A bit niche within the military watch world...wears yours in good health! 👍

very very very (did I say very ?) envious 🥰
Edit: nothing to compare but just noticed that my Aquastar shares the same type of hands than your wonderful Mk11
... a poor consolation that is

Reissued alas, still a nice watch.

·Is that a sterile dial Hamilton 6B? I don't think I have seen one of those before.
