Just got delivery of my first CW watch. I've always been on the lookout for the right one and was previously set on getting the c63 elite and then... this came up on their website and I've been on the hunt for adding some colour to my collection of grey, blue and black face watches. Instantly I was drawn to the vibrancy of this purple and the radial design. Combined with it being a limited edition of 150, it felt like a no brainer.

36mm is a sweet spot for me and this fits perfect in my relatively dainty wrists. One thing I was surprised to see was the double screw system used as this can be a very frustrating experience without the right tools. I do however, like the extension clasp mechanism which is quite innovative.

Loving the feel and look of this so far. Looking forward to wearing it once the sun comes out a bit more (I'm in the UK). Also, top marks on the packaging - really bespoke and luxurious with the wood and soft leatherette materials used.

Let me know your thoughts....

Welcome. Do please visit the Member Introduction section and tell us about yourself.

That’s a fantastic photo and a great little mini review. It has been moved to this section because it doesn’t belong in Reference Gallery, where you placed it. That’s for photos only.

Welcome
I think it looks brilliant. I almost ordered one when I first saw it. Somehow I think I managed to suppress all knowledge of it - until you arrived
Enjoy it - I think it’s going to be a winner

What a great pic! I think the foxglove color is the pick of those LE colors. The size looks great on you too

That looks splendid! I agree with Alex that this colour is the pick of the latest LE colours. The faded dial also raises it to another level. Enjoy it, you've got a lovely watch there.

Thanks all for the comments, including the mod for putting this post in the right place. Honestly, I've not been able to take my eyes of this one. A real stunner. And I'm surprised to see these haven't sold out already - this will surely be a future classic imo. Great to be part of the CW community!

That's lovely. I saw that at the watch it watch fair, and the purple was my favourite colour. I don't know whether CW designed it for ladies, but it was on a tiny strap, which certainly didn't fit me.

It actually did sell out and then I cancelled my order this last week so there's probably only 1 left! You're welcome to the lucky buyer. Kinda making me regret my choice, loving the depth on that dial

I wonder if some dial colours - such as this one - actually work better on a smaller dial?

It's not sold out. It's just on pre-order now, while they wait for the next batch to arrive. The website says "pre-order for Mid March 2023", so not too long to wait if anyone wants one.

The color was removed from the website, I cancelled my order and it was back on the website. Make of that what you will

Outstanding !

Enjoy your fantastic new watch.

Great pic and welcome! Those new LEs look really good in the real world photos.

frustrating experience with double screws... Idk why this is a problem? I resized my watch with 2pcs cheapest 1.2mm screwdrivers in 15minutes using only my own hands. Took out 3 links. In first try, never resized my bracelet in my life. That was that easy.

Great watch, congrats
