On your C60 Trident - Black Bezel; it has the new CW logo, did you purchase this in the NN sale? All the others I have seen in the NN sale have the old logo on them.
Hoping to have mine sometime next week.
Regards
Mine from the NN sale has got the old logo. Interesting that Alasdair's is the new new logo.

LOL :D :D :D
Good man Alasdair !! :)
I quickly put the CW brown leather strap on my C5 Black dial and it looked gorgeous ;)
Looking forward to the photos :)

Seriously though that is a cracking haul of lovely CW's.
I also thought of buying the C4, looks great. The C8 also lovely.
But obviously the Trident is total Drool central !!! LOVE it :)
ENJOY them all mate

Yes, from the NN sale - it was listed separately to the other C60s and once I bought it vanished - so I suspect there was only one of them... fortunately I rather like the new logo :D

I think you might be right - there is an inner which is textured and a smoother outer - though all the same level - nevertheless, still like it :)

I am very happy :)

well done, looks like I missed it. :mrgreen:

Still, I'm happy in the fact that I will be owning one some time next week. The post can be slow in Ireland when you are looking forward to some thing, now bills, they arrive the next day! :lol:

Well, :) i thought that if i bought a watch for every post you wouldn't mind the speed posting!!
I think that is what kip does as welll...

Or maybe it was just that having no shop you have to buy one of every model from CWL to see which ones you like!

You are most kind :)
Under the ebay api licence data can't be resold so an app is out, and most mobiles should have no problem with the website... So i think it will stay free and easy :)

Lovely selection there. I really like the C8 and that will probably be my next purchase.

amazing how a C8 MK I has morphed into a MK II. :wink:

Now just to decide whether to keep it on the black strap or switch to a Vintage Tan strap that I have. Must admit I like the cream stitching in the strap that matches the cream face.

Brilliant!

I have to thank you for this...as now when the boss lady complains about one little watch turning up...i can casually point her in this direction as an example of MY saintly restraint.... :clap: :lol:

He probably wrote a program to trawl the CW site for sale watches on his want list, notify him, and then order items with just one command .... :D

Have to admit that I didn't :) but actually - that is not a bad idea... It is quite easy to scrape websites and if I automated it to hit the CW website maybe 100 times a second I should be able to block anyone else from seeing the watches until I am ready to order... :chainsaw: :computer:

I like it :D
