Not really. There’s Marathon (Canadian) that has fulfilled North American contracts, but they have conventional origins and have produced conventional watches.
There isn’t a national defence department with the rich horological history of the MoD, and there isn’t another watch company like CWC that existed merely to serve them. And then there’s the intertwined history of Silvermans. It takes an unlikely combination of factors to make a CWC.

You were where I am: I get that it's a cool watch, but I don't see why everyone makes a big fuss about it. I've never tried one on, however.
Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.
