No CWs in Rome (4 million romans) and all over Italy... Nobodies here know CW brand, on wrist they have only Rolex, Hamilton, Omega, Swatch, Seiko, Tissot and new old style Casio watch... Often people wear cheap chinese "plasticoni" watches.
Who look at my CW Extreme Titanium 1000 say: wooooo!
Many people here not have a watch: they look time on smartphone :lol:

Been here over 5 years now and have never seen another person wearing a CWL watch (other than a forum member meet and my uncle who has 4)

Many years ago I saw a very stylish gent in the office I was working in at that time in London wearing a classic malvern C5. It looked great on the wrist, very stylish. I didn't get a chance to talk to him about it unfortunately. They are out there though and are usually worn by the most decerning and stylish individuals out there!

I actually saw someone wearing a green bezel c60 today, in the Que. to get on the big wheel in Torquay.

I have to say it looked good and made me want the chrono :thumbup:

I'm new to the forum and hopefully soon to buy my first CW. On my regular train journey down south with work, I recently saw a 30 something (and obviously stylish :lol: ) guy wearing a CW, probably a Malvern as I'm still getting used to the different variants.

I was at Leeds Bradford Airport today and the guy in front of me had a C70 on. Not sure which version and did not ask as was to busy looking after my excited sprogg.

If he on the forum it was a queuing to get on a plan to Paphos at 14:30 ish 8th June......he had the number 2 on the back and on the arms of his polo shirt.

Went to a family gathering on my wife's side. And one of her uncles had a lovely c5 Malvern auto. Unfortunately I wasn't wearing my c60 Pro as he was interested in seeing one in the flesh. So we had a great chat about how CWL watches are very well made for the amount they cost. Promised to wear the c60 next time.
