Congratulations to the buyers who snagged the red sapphires. That was my wish list item. I shouldn’t even be looking today, but these are CW watches. :D

I also looked at the C65 red/black with the white, not vintage, markers and lume. Had I not recently bought the regular release this prototype would have been an instant buy, too.

Thanks, once again to Kip, the Forum Team, and Christopher Ward for making this special access sale available. It’s great to see all the design experiments percolating behind the scenes. Well done CW!

Congrats to those that found something unique that they purchased, I gave up after waiting 2.5 hours from the expected launch time. Oh well... there's always another watch I'll want in time. All the best to those who bought in!

When they first came out I did a quick and dirty mock up and it does look way better in my opinion.

I second that. Good job Kip as always. How you keep track of who to notify is beyond me. It has to be a tremendous amount of work. Thank you very much.

I should like to add my gratitude to Kip, CW and the Forum Team. I know there was an IT glitch which caused a delay but helped build up the anticipation.
Also Kip, am guessing you have some knowledge of what might come up but “hats off” to you for not barging in and taking some of the watches before we get a chance (so I believe)!
Cheers,
Chris

You beat me to it Chris. Top notch. Image Image

By the time I'd scrolled through and gone back to it, via the Teal sunray dialled C65 Chronograph the black/red Sapphire(s) had gone.

Sorry about that Guy. Especially as you were, I am guessing, sorting out screenshots to post for us all to see.

If I ever sell it I will give you first refusal (but unfortunately I can assure you that it won’t be sold ImageImage)
Take care Guy,

Thank you Kip,
I had the chance to be part of such an event for the first time and luckily I found what I was looking for.

I spontaneously found the C7 Rapid Chronometer so attractive. The two-tone case in black and red and the dial are already an eye-catcher :-)

Thanks to CW and Admin. Some interesting variants there. The red sapphire C60 really stood out. Congrats to the buyers
