Collected the W8IPK Limited Edition I bought in the NN sale for my girlfriend for Christmas from the sorting office today as I missed the delivery.

Stunning piece !! Very very happy with it
As these were a limited edition of only 30 pieces, I looked to see the serial number...........
Number 01/30
I was onto Wera by email about something else and said it to her, she said "Glad you like it..........and very lucky, number 1 never leaves the building !! obviously an oversight at this end"
Well pleased about this
Some very quick and dire iPhone 3GS photo's of it below :






I'll post some proper photo's soon after I present it to my Girlfriend

Very nice. That is Debs handwriting if Wera is looking for someone to blame. And if it is NN then this is the second time it has left the building.

I read though from something Kip said about these Limited Edition W8IPK's that they were never listed on the website as normal and were only ever sold through NN so I figure it never left before now

I got the Ltd edition PVD Matisse for the other half. She wanted the diamond one but I am not sure I feel up to the £500 right now. Black is the new diamond

It's her 3rd CW. I have one - and name on a new Forum LTD

Arrived today and it loks lovely on the Stingray strap - descritpion said leather, but it's Stingray. Wife not home yet. It's #2 of 30 and I have asked Wera why a limited edition of 30 in PVD

The W8IPK was built as a result of some leftover dials and cases from the W8SKMK and Ladies BoB watch. Enough was left to create a limited Edition of 30 units. These were never part of the regular line and have gone straight to the clearance sale.

May I just say a total bargain in the NN sale - my pal got one for his Mrs and now I am getting grief for not doing the same on the back of these shots! Number One is a Brucie Bonus...

Sorry for the sidetrack, but Ladies' BoB watch??!

Oh yes, I have to say that the Matisse looks very nice with an IPK case.

Thank you
I'm delighted with it as is my girlfriend. I presented it to her last night. She was thrilled

I offered to buy it for SWMBO but she didn't fancy it either.

The battery died yesterday
So I am thinking of sending it over to CWL to get a service on it.
I know it's a lot of money at £90 but I just want it to be right, especially as it's number 1 !!!
I'll report back when it's been done and let you know how I got on.

If you just want CWL to do a battery change rather than a full quartz service, the price is more like £25. If the watch still isn't very old that may be the better option.

I thought that alright but I leaning towards the service, but it is only two years old.....I'll think about it.
Thanks Steve
