Apologies for thread necromancy...
Yesterday, on the train from Clapham Junction to Twickenham, 5:30pm. I was travelling to see Saracens v Ulster. A bloke opposite had a C11 Makaira on. I complimented him on his taste in watches but it was too crowded for a conversation!

I haven't seen any here in Colorado, however there are a few other forum members here in the Rocky mountains that I might run into one day.

Necromancy has been banned by the Arch-Mage. 

No more Quartz (except when I cannot resist).
Re: How often do you see strangers wearing a CW?
Never seen one and only will se it when i give someone a CW as a gift 
Not having AD's and being only know out of UK/Europe(maybe) by the iniciated on watches i don't realy think there are many CWL on Brazil.
I only know of 3 watches apart from my own here, and they were bought by some members of a brazilian forum after i showed my C60.
It would actualy be nice to know how many were shipped here to Brazil...see if my numbers are too far off or not.
Cheers,
Sifion

Re: How often do you see strangers wearing a CW?
This is going to sound really quite odd, but I once saw an original CW Malvern Aviator mk1, sat on a bedside cabinet whilst looking at houses to purchase. That almost edges on the side of a little creepy that I noticed, I know!!

Re: How often do you see strangers wearing a CW?
I was at a works meal tonight and a colleague, who i'd met for the first time, commented on my C5. Turns out he's a wstch lover and a forum member for a number if years. I've still not seen another CW in the wild but it's good to have someone recognise my watch.

Re: How often do you see strangers wearing a CW?
I've not come across any here in Charleston, South Carolina...USA. However, I am also extremely new to CWL...a matter of six days! So new, but I'm on the lookout for any CW's.
