I could be tempted to chop in my elite and swap for the colchester given the local connectionTigerChris wrote: ↑Wed Nov 03, 2021 4:29 pm 3 and a half grand for a CW - no thanks. I do like the C63 Colchester though - carbon case, COSC, push in crown, under a grand - very tempting

Re: C60 Concept
Not a bad idea that mate - just wait for the next £100 voucher code. Unless we get a site wide 15% Black Friday discount in a few weeks?stefs wrote: ↑Wed Nov 03, 2021 4:58 pmI could be tempted to chop in my elite and swap for the colchester given the local connectionTigerChris wrote: ↑Wed Nov 03, 2021 4:29 pm 3 and a half grand for a CW - no thanks.

Re: C60 Concept
I wonder how long it will take to sell 210 watch's and if it will still be around before the next voucher

Re: C60 Concept
I agree, many more options at that price point. I cannot in my wildest dreams imagine paying over 3k for a CW.
The C60 Mk3 is better in so many ways. Can you really say the Concept is worthy of being over 4x the price.
As someone had already stated, this will probably appeal to the die hard CW fans.

Re: C60 Concept
The Colchester looks like a serious value. I'm not sure why it's so thick though. Same movement as the Sealander and the Elite, but significantly thicker than either.TigerChris wrote: ↑Wed Nov 03, 2021 4:29 pm 3 and a half grand for a CW - no thanks.

I'm quite confused by the Colchester case back. What is the "Christopher Ward Parachute Regiment"?

I suspect there might be some punctuation implicit in the two dots and the juxtaposition of the names.

Re: C60 Concept
Sorry to correct you Steve but the £100 voucher does apply for the Concept; at least it did when I ordered mine last week (when the 100LOUPE22 was still valid).

Re: C60 Concept
^^^ Sorry, Guy. I stand (or rather sit) corrected. I always thought it stated on vouchers that you couldn’t use them for Limited Editions or sale items.

Re: C60 Concept
That's interesting Guy - I asked but was sent a separate payment link with no option to use the code (this was over 2 weeks ago). Not that I'll be making a fuss about it!Bahnstormer_vRS wrote: ↑Wed Nov 03, 2021 5:51 pmSorry to correct you Steve but the £100 voucher does apply for the Concept; at least it did when I ordered mine last week (when the 100LOUPE22 was still valid).

Re: C60 Concept
Does anyone know whether CW still test SH21 equipped watches prior to despatch. I seem to recall when the C8PR was released they tested them before shipping out to customers.
If they don't I think they should at this price point.

I had a separate payment link too.
When I checked the price, the £100 voucher had been applied.
