Picky me says with a power reserve of 50% you obviously did stop!Royston 64 wrote:The C90 Beckett's again for me (Can't stop wearing this one!!)...
On first glance I did originally think this watch too big and mentally put it in the same league as the circa £20 fashion watches from the likes of Sainsburys and Asda.
However, I do like the power reserve watches and this may just make it onto my wish list, albeit some way down the list of priorities.

Re: CWL of the day
Some days, I look at the Becketts, and I think that there had to be a more elegant way of incorporating the power reserve into the dial. But other days, I look at it, and I just think that the rest of the dial is so interesting and multi-layered that I can easily overlook the fact that the power reserve isn't perfect to me.st-rider wrote:Picky me says with a power reserve of 50% you obviously did stop!Royston 64 wrote:The C90 Beckett's again for me (Can't stop wearing this one!!)...

I actually read that you want to keep those types of watches within the middle ground because otherwise the springs are overexerted at the outer extremes.

I miss all the great things that may never be.

Re: CWL of the day
Still my favorite out of my 4 CWLs. I like that strap that you have it on. I'm looking for alternate strap ideas for mine at the moment.Helix Von Smelix wrote:
