Looking at the CW web site it shows the C3SWT on the collection page as having black numerals on the white face (unless this is a trick of the light when the photo was taken).

In the details page gallery images, the numerals are shown as silver, however. Personally I like the black numerals and this is probably a decision point as to whether I buy the watch or not. Can anyone say whether it is an option when ordering? Perhaps I should just email CW direct, but having found this forum, I thought it would be good to ask anyway.

That is exactly my C3, and I can assure you that the numerals are not black. As you say, it is a trick of the light. Please, see my post about my collection here:

you will see the C3 in two different angles and in one of the picture it seems that it has black numerals.

I hope this helps.

The black face one which I have, can looked blue, its nice, im told its to do with the anti reflection in the glass

Thanks for the response - the lighting effect has quite an impact.

I will have to think a bit harder now!

The anti-reflection is pretty cool. My C5 shimmers when you have the light in the right position and sometimes, the hand will look black, not in pictures I’m saying, for real while I’m looking at it on my wrist. At certain angles to the light I will see a beautiful blue secondary reflection of blue in the sapphire crystal. The photograph coatings on the inside of the crystal make for an outstanding feature. It looks like a jewel! I couldn’t be happier.
