EVALUATION OF DEVELOPMENT SAMPLES OF SIX NONMAINTAINABLE ARMY WRIST WATCHES

Abstract

The savings available thru elimination of field maintenance of Army wrist watches are discussed. USCONARC field performance requirements and the laboratory test requirements established as a control for procuring watches to meet the field requirement are reviewed. The results of laboratory test on lots of ten each of a non jeweled watch, a 1 jeweled watch, two 7 jeweled watches, a 7 jeweled watch with a self regulating feature and a 17 jeweled watch are presented. The quantitative test data is presented in the form of tables covering average daily rate error, standard deviation of rate errors, poise, isochronism, difference between individual rate readings and their mean, change in rate with temperature and the change in these parameters after exposure of the watches to magnetic fields, shock, vibration and high and low temperature. It is concluded that the 7 jeweled watches and possibly the 2 jeweled watch sho., Haifa. PULSE HEIGHT INDICATOR, by U. Galil and D. Ophir. 23 Feb 60, 4p. illus.
