@cosracer
The first one is the C5A Mk I and the second you asked about is the C5A Mk II. I would suggest looking at the forum archives (see button at top - http://www.christopherwardforum.com/archives/ ) and the Reference Gallery )http://www.christopherwardforum.com/viewforum.php?f=58) to get a view on older models. Or PM the relevant person.

May I ask how you find this watch wears on the wrist, does it feel too big ? Also do you have any pictures of this at night to show the lume, I am considering this model for myself so any information would be appreciated, thanks
Whilst the C8 is quite large with a 44mm case (w/o crown) because it is relatively slim and not too tall, plus on the light side, it is very comfortable to wear.

It looks quite large, being 44mm, but in the way an Aviator watch should be large. Plus, with the case being bead blasted and having a matt finish, it does not give the impression of being a large watch.

I don't, I'm sorry to say, have any lume shots, but will mention it is only the hands and the 12 o'clock triangle marker & two dots that have lume.

Trust this is of help.

This just arrived, not yet set the time or removed the plastic off the face BUT....
On the site it said it has a 316L Stainless Steel Bracelet :-s
Oh, it actually showed it with a black PVD bracelet too in the photo on the CW site :o

Looks new though :thumbup:

Pity about the bracelet but I think the black leather suits it much better.
Congratulations Dave :)
