I am curious as to how Chris actually numbers his watches. I have a C4 Peregrine C4SSS which has the number 0269. Now does that mean I have the C4SSS-0269 or does it mean that I have a C4-0269. The reason I ask is because if I then buy a Brown Italian Leather "Duo-Fast" Strap for it then my watch has actually become a C4SST. That would then mean that there were two C4SST's branded number 0269. Or the person who bought the C4SST-0269 buys the steel bracelet then their watch becomes a duplicate of mine. Of course it is unlikely to ever become a problem but if in 100 years or so and CWL has become the Rolex of the 22nd Century then it might cause problems if my heirs ever come to sell it lmao. I am really just curious as to how he actually numbers the watches. If anyone knows the answer then let us know.
CWL Numbering System
From the answer that I got to my kingfisher automatic number request, it is for the model, not the model/strap combo (not even the colour I assume)
[Chris] the serial numbers would be different...as essentially a different model... Mk I and MK II and all that
I was after a number that I thought might get taken by the quartz adoptees.

My response was a direct quote from Chris - the only thing that he didn't elaborate on was whether or not colours were labelled indivdually but I think that by not saying that he implies it is for the model not the colours - I'm happy to wait for Hans to get an official response though.Terminator wrote:Thanks for the replies but I think we are all guessing. It would be nice to get an official response on the numbering though. Perhaps Hans can clarify with Chris the next time they speak.
That is my question James. Is it the models or the colour combos.jamestux wrote:the only thing that he didn't elaborate on was whether or not colours were labelled indivdually.

All joking aside it will be great if Hans could clarify for sure.
