If it did, it should carry through to check out.

Make sure you click the "Promo code" link and not "add voucher" as there are 2 options available.

I clicked the voucher link yesterday by mistake and it wouldn't take the code.
Did it with the promo link and hey presto!

Yeah I did do it correctly but it’s not having it :? I contact CWL on Monday to see why it’s not working for me but other members was successful on the day when I tried

Well done to all who have taken the plunge on this. A very nice watch, even though it’s not really my type.

Wow!! That C60 Ombré looks so unique and beautiful. The dial pattern is rare. The brand name uses a proper font colour mathing the vintage element of the dial. I just received C60 Acan but got to return for misaligned hour hand. Maybe I need to email CW CS asking for replacing my C60 Acan with C60 Ombré.

That’s unfortunate re: Acan. Thought QC at CW would be better. That’s the 3rd time I’ve read about misaligned hour hands. Should’ve tightened that weakness by now.
Will be making sure my new CW is correct in Maidenhead this week! :thumbup:

I really like the look of this, unfortunately having just forked out for a 65" Sony AF9 OLED tv my watch fund is drained for the foreseeable future :(

Gave a considerable amount of thought to buying one of these and have decided to pass on it for now, for several reasons...

Never personally owned a bronze watch, but as I rarely mark or damage my watches I think I would love it from day one and then once the patina begins to develop I'm not convinced I would like the aged look - I do appreciate this can be reversed, but it would continue to happen.

I'm not a fan of the sandblasted bezel - I appreciate I may be in the minority but would prefer the normal ceramic for scratch resistance.

Price is high for a Sellita movement, yes I accept that it's COSC and also we have the £150 off voucher, but it's still £845. I currently have 4 Tridents with an average cost below £500, one of which is COSC, another GMT and another titanium. Price isn't the determining factor for me, but it does make the on trend Bronze models look a bit pricey.

Still think it's a lovely piece and look forward to seeing real life pics.
I'll be amazed if they don't sell out by the end of November.

Yea I think I'm going to pass too. For me the original C60 bronze is still a nicer watch.

How’s a sandblasted ceramic bezel produced? Never heard of this term. How durable is sb ceramic bezel vs normal ceramic bezel?

Broadly speaking, if you sandblast anything it will give a matt finish.

If a gloss ceramic bezel is highly resistant to any kind of mark, I'd be surprised if matt was any different.
