CWL of the day
Re: CWL of the day
My W61 finally back again on shark mesh, after a few years on the original black strap. I'd forgotten how difficult it was to remove the fitted curved strap.
I've always preferred shark mesh straps that didn't come with the horizontal (springbar) tube across the lugs. The tube tends to emphasise the gap between the case and the lug-end of the mesh, and I really don't like that obvious straight line drawn across the lugs - one reason I'm not into Milanese mesh straps.

I always like this time of year because the CWL of the day gets a refresh with everyone’s sale purchases. I didn’t buy one, but I did buy a recycled desk made from old scaffold boards. Its sanded smooth but has the feel of the grain left in which I love, as well as a few lumps and bumps. It’s a great backdrop for my go to Dartmouth!

C60 Sapphire Orange for my last night shift of my week tonight.
It's also my second last spin in my current MINI Cooper Exclusive as I'm collecting my new MINI tomorrow afternoon

Love seeing all of the Super Compressors lately!

Re: CWL of the day
Even with all CW’s great offerings over the last year or so, I still think this is one of the best models they’ve produced in so many ways.

Re: CWL of the day
I have the impression you are quite fond of this watch. Is that a mini schnauzer in your artistically blurred background?

Sandhurst for a change
I got some more leather in a few days back and finished sewing up this new strap for it last night. Shame not to give it a wear today…
Keep well,
