Quite smitten with this watch, I must say. If the strap and deployant buckle are all this comfortable i might be going on a Bader buckle buying spree for my Christopher Ward collection.

Re: Viognier - February 2016 SOTC
Bit late catching up on posts recently and just spotted your SOTC Lance and I knew it would be a good read.
Quite sad to see two of my favourite CW watches go from your collection, the Red JAG and the Orange Trident....
However ! The C60 600m is fabulous and a worthy replacement for the Red JAG.
The PO GMT is simply superb, a glorious addition my friend.
Enjoy them all in good health

Quick update as 2016 comes to a close.....
No additions since the PO GMT. I've been absolutely content and have nothing imminent in my sights.
Surprisingly the Omega Aqua Terra is worn the least and may move it out in early 2017 and consolidate to 5 watches.

September 2018 Update
Down to Five Watches now with the least worn Omega Aqua Terra 2500 Blue Dial being sold off locally last Fall. I’ve been tempted by th Zenith El Primeiro......but likely at the expense of my Speedmaster as source of funds. Just not convinced that makes sense as the Speedy is currently on my wrist and looks timeless and fantastic.
Crazy, but I haven’t bought a watch since February 2016 and am truly content with my compact collection of Five.

If you only plan on one chronograph, I'd recommend keeping the Speedmaster - purely based on my own experiences. My Speedy survived the EP and the Daytona, because it is and remains the most legible of chronographs, and a timeless design.

Re: Viognier - February 2016 SOTC
I agree with Richard, Lance. The Speedy is the nonpareil of chronographs. IMHO. of course.

Re: Viognier - February 2016 SOTC
Thanks Richard and Steve. I agree, just have the niggling feeling that the Speedmaster departure would be regretted immensely. They also have had a nice run up in price so re-acquisition would be expensive.
The Zenith chronograph movement is also iconic. Would love to find one FS locally to handle and try on the wrist . No luck so far which is probably the watch Gods looking out for me......
