I sell a ton of brands. What beer is that? Is it a Sam Adams beer or just a Sam Adams glass you are using? Denver meet up would be great.... Watch nerds in beer country.

I've yet to 100% confirm spotting another CW on a strangers wrist but i thought i saw one on the wrist of the lady going through the details of our new kitchen in the showroom recently but as the said woman was rather attractive i thought the wife might think my compliment of her choice of watch would constitute brazen flirting!!
Someone did ask me if my C70 was a Christopher Ward watch though once.

Like buses!

I've never seen another, randomly, "in the wild"........

Until today - two!

I saw two yesterday! Waitress in our restaurant was wearing the silly melting numbers thing, and the guy at the next table was wearing a Malvern. Given that the last one I saw (that wasn't mine) was over two years ago I thought this rather odd!

Today, for the first time. A colleague with whom I was in a meeting was wearing a large Submariner-type watch on a nato strap. Glancing at it more closely, I noticed the trident balance on the second hand. A C60! First and only time I've ever seen another CWL watch in the wild and the first time I'd seen a C60 Trident up close. Bigger than I had imagined and rather an impressive watch, too. Sadly, I wasn't wearing my C9 JH2.

I'm a stranger and nobody has noticed my CWL.

I still maintain that I saw a coral in Costa Newton Abbot last month and I reckon I saw a C60 in Sainsbury's Epsom last week. I can't confirm either sighting but the hands were suspiciously CW-like...... :-k

Bumped into forum member Monaco73 today as I was drooling over tudor black bays outside Robert Gatward in Windsor. We both happened to be wearing C60/C60GMTs respectively. Great to meet another forum member out in the real world!

Followed that up by going in and trying all the black bays. Now I know where the christmas bonus is likely to be going...

I haven't seen another one out in the wild but my C60 was spotted by one of the salesmen in my local Goldsmiths yesterday as I was admiring their new display of Tudor watches.

I was expecting the hard sell as he approached me but he was more interested in my CWL. We had a nice chat for about ten minutes and he was very impressed with the quality of the C60. He'd never actually seen one before but seemed to know quite a bit about the brand.

The last time I wore my c60 into a watch shop they thought it was some sort of chronoswiss.
