Real men don’t wear girlie watches nowadays

Perhaps he didn’t have to compensate…

The aventurine dial looks really good with the applied logo. Good follow up release to the Moonphase. Not for me again but I am sure there will be customers to snatch this one up.

It's nice.

I'd buy one tomorrow in a 40/41mm.

I'd probably buy a 39mm, but a 36mm on an 8 inch wrist isn't going to look right.

I really like it though.

Well I already have a Sealander, GMT, and I have a policy for no two watches from same series.
Otherwise it's a thumbs up and it looks fabulous on the consort. Shine her up baby!

Of course having a 'girlie' 16cm wrist helps

I really like that. The Moon-thingy didn't really float my boat, but I liked the dial. This does the trick and is the first new CW to tempt me for a while. I'm broke so I won't be buying, but if I could...I might!

They’ve done a nice job with this aventurine implementation. I like it.

I like it. Nice dial. Clean design.

Shame about the size tho

Is it me or does it feel like CW is going a little overboard with the 36mm watches?

Feel like their bread and butter is 39-42. Get that Celest on a 39mm sealander please! I would buy it immediately

Real shame it’s 36mm. It’s the first CW in a while that had got my interest- I’d hoped for it to be 40mm or thereabouts

That dial, indices and no date would also be a hit on a…..

40mm case 12.

...or on 36mm of same

I like it, though I don't need or want one.

I have to ask - is this a serious comment?

I think that's quite nice. CW certainly seems to be keen to push the 36mm message. I must get out and try a 36mm on to see if my thinking about it being too small for my tastes is justified. I think this watch is a natural pairing for the consort bracelet, it works really well.

After years of the slimmer-wristed complaining about the large sizes of CW cases (eg C9, C8, old C60 - all 43mm, maybe the C8 was even 44mm?), the tables have turned.....
