Re: CWL of the day
Well since it's back from repair.... Deserves a photo - even if it is taken nowhere more exciting than my hotel room...
Think I'll put it on the bracelet at the weekend.

I had a nice chat about watches with him, he admitted he doesn't wear a watch currently but is on the outlook for one so he's checking out the CWL site later

Re: CWL of the day
the newbie on a C8 strap, much better suited than the original orange strap...
I must say, when I unboxed this newcomer I was a bit underwhelmed. It appeared much larger than I was expecting, the orangish strap was a bit 'in yer face', and it was only then I noticed there were no minute markers (duh!). But by the end of the first evening on-the-wrist, I was really enjoying it...even the original strap was growing on me! If it was matte or even a bit distressed I might have stuck with it, but as is with its high gloss I thought it made the watch appear more of a 'fashion' piece which to me was a detractor. I think the C8 strap fits it far better and the legibility of the dial and the clarity of the crystal are stellar! I think we're bonding

Very much agreeMiniMpi wrote:Good to hear
It looks great with that strap combo.
I wondered how long it would take you to try the C8 strap (available in black at a 'sale' price of £30 if you're interested - http://www.christopherward.co.uk/c8sxk.html).

Re: CWL of the day
^^^ interested and purchased!
Thx for the heads up Guy, I was looking for that strap just last week. It doesn't show up in the regular strap listings...
and agree with other forumites, their website is becoming a pain to navigate

Re: CWL of the day
Glad to have been of help.
I found it myself only a few days ago by putting 'C8 strap' in the search box.
It's amazing what you can find with a little imagination.

Re: CWL of the day
Looks great of course vikingdrvr, and thanks bahnstormer_vRs : might well pick up a spare at that price!
Popped mine back on the SuperEngII a few minutes ago. had forgotten how chunky / weighty this combo feels. In a good way.
