Not all TONNEAU watches are designed for everyday life or formal wear, that is, for civilians. Hamilton’s W10 was a military watch produced for the British army in the 1970s. CWC also offers the same watch, and the good news is that they are produced in large quantities and are completely unlike the “Twelve King Kong” that only had the time display function before. "(Dirty Dozen) military watches are as expensive. Not all W10 watches have a barrel-shaped case, and a round traditional case version is also available, but it is interesting that TONNEAU brings a modern sense. The round crystal mirror that is inconsistent with the shape of the case will weaken the effect of the TONNEAU case, making people think that it is not TONNEAU, but it is indeed a TONNEAU watch.
The purpose of TONNEAU is more likely to be used to replace the basic form of early watches, that is, modified pocket watches with welded wire lugs. Even the smallest modified pocket watch is very large, and this modification is far from elegant. The TONNEAU watch shows that it is completely separated from the pocket watch that the original watch wanted to replace.

In the early years of mass production watches, people also found that larger timepieces, if the case has a curvature (from a side angle), it will be more comfortable to wear, because the case will fit the wrist shape. This design is very suitable for lengthening the TONNEAU case, and many coveted 1920s watches are very curved TONNEAU watches. Another statement is that because the peak period of TONNEAU watches happened to be the Art Deco era, it became a typical work of this era style.
