You're welcome .. what a great watch this is! After a couple of hours of wear, maybe a 40mm face and/or an exhibition window would have been marginally more preferable... but ... it's so hard to nit-pick, and is a most definite keeper. :-)

Compared to the c60/61 it looks like they've improved the engraving on the case back. It's nice to see that kind of attention to detail! Great watch you've got there. [OK HAND SIGN]

Looking fantastic chaps. Spot the difference between the website version and the real-life version. It took me a wee while to notice but it did convince me that the real version really is better.

If CWL were to make a white dialled version with black hands and batons, that would be a thing of beauty indeed.

Very nice photos that really show it to be a quality item. The minute hand is fully lumed! C60 have an open bit near the centre on both hands.

Almost but not quite right. The web pics have one hand lumed, the other open whereas the real thing has both hands lumed. Both lumed or both open looks great but one lumed, one not is less so.

Ah yes, the version shown on the CW site looks a bit odd!

Excellent pics all round. The C65 is another watch that looks so much better on forum member's photos than it does on the website.

With my white dialled C20, and a black dialled sports watch on the horizon already, I'm struggling to justify one of these. HOWEVER, if they were to introduce a blue dial (same blue as new C3/C5/C9) then I'd be VERY tempted.
