Re: C63 Valour Arrives Early!!!
Lovely! That's a very nicely done watch.
How do the chrono pushers feel? I don't know if there's a tactile difference between auto and quartz, but I know that the feel of quality in the 'click' would be one mark of quality that I'd pay attention to. I hope it's a satisfactory click

Re: C63 Valour Arrives Early!!!
Congrats Delmar! That looks really nice on the strap. I saw in the CWLOTD thread you have it on a consort bracelet you already had- just curious if it was bought for this watch or you bought it for a different watch and it just happens to fit this one as well?

Re: C63 Valour Arrives Early!!!
They have a very positive mechanical 'click', Lindsey. At least my C63 Valour has.

Thanks Guy. I was thinking about a car advert years ago where the designer is trying to find the perfect hinge and door with the perfect clickBahnstormer_vRS wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 9:05 pmThey have a very positive mechanical 'click', Lindsey. At least my C63 Valour has.![]()

Re: C63 Valour Arrives Early!!!
Thank You! In answer to your question, I had bought the Consort bracelet on the January sale for use with my Forum LE. That’s a real positive with Christopher Ward using the popular C63 case which works for the 39mm Sealander. It’s really nice to be able to swap existing straps & bracelets one already owns. Since, I have a Bader bracelet for my Sealander, I will be trying that one next. I like the looks of the Valour on the black canvas strap, I just need to break it in properly.ajax87 wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 8:13 pm Congrats Delmar! That looks really nice on the strap.

Re: C63 Valour Arrives Early!!!
Lindsey, I will concur with what Guy stated. The pushers for my watch operate with a very positive, satisfactory click! I know the watch isn’t an automatic mechanical watch, but it exudes quality! I may be different in taste from the usual chronograph enthusiast, but I like the plain Lightcatcher case which doesn’t seem too busy. I never thought that I would say this, but I really like this one not having a calendar date function. My C65 AM GT LE has the date which requires adjustment with those odd months. With the superlative accuracy of the Valour’s thermo compensated quartz movement, the only time that I will need to adjust the time is for Daylight Savings Time. Just a great design with elements of “Field” & “Dress” watches to be comfortably used for either purpose.missF wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 8:05 pm Lovely! That's a very nicely done watch.

Re: C63 Valour Arrives Early!!!
I will add one more observation on my new acquisition. As my wife just told me, the pictures don’t do the watch justice. Maybe an extreme close up would illustrate how the numerals & logo are raised which provides interesting dimensional depth. Add the reverse Panda sub dials & this chronograph has a very tactile, textured feel to it!

Re: C63 Valour Arrives Early!!!
It's all great feedback on the quality of the watch
I don't know if you're into cars? I'm not - but I'm into clever advertising. Here's a link to the advert that made me ask about the click and feel of the pushers:

Re: C63 Valour Arrives Early!!!
Congratulations Delmar !!
The Valour looks fantastic
Great post and photos also.
I prefer the look of it on a black strap, maybe the vintage oak would work well.

Congratulations, Delmar.
It looks as though the Maui Jims are ready to lead it astray on the next trip.
