Edit: looks like they are the white ones in a blue light

There's never been a time when I've been enthused about so many CW offerings, the brand is flying at the mo'. I've only ever bought a watch from the internet, without trying before buying. Their new premises looks superb and I really like the idea of trying a number of watches on from a shortlist I'm compiling in my head. I can imagine that I might leave with a totally different watch to what I expected. Delighted to heat that you're very pleased with your new acquisition.

Thanks Des. If you do arrange a visit I am sure there are a few forumites who live within about an hour journey time, who would be up for a get together and a pint whilst you are in the UK.

Bonus point to you for asking.

Plaster moulds of the hands of 12 key staff, each wearing a watch considered important to the development of the company. In many instances a favourite watch.

The orange hand is Mike’s. Don’t know why his is orange other than perhaps he wanted his orange, just because he could. Or an orange diving glove, albeit his arm isn’t wearing a dive watch.

Extra point to anyone for identifying the watch…

If in the spring a visit to CW towers looks likely, I'll bring it to the attention of the forum for anyone that might be in the area on the allotted day and in need of a pint or two and, maybe, a pickled egg.
