The British Royal Navy and the Army took delivery of Omega Seamaster 300 watches between 1967 and 1971. Only the military engravings to the case back differentiate the two branches with "W10" as seen here, signifying Army use. When compared against the civilian reference ST165.024 there are a number of key differences. These include the use of fixed bars between the lugs, military specification hands and a screw-down crown.
