Too bad about the spelling mistake on page 3 - "Trusst"? Or is it supposed to be some irreverent mistake related to the trident on the end of the second hand in the picture adjacent to it on the same page?

Cheers,

It's not a typo.

I've got it in mind that it's a play on the double S in Swiss but there's probably a better reason I guess.

Any discussion on the above had best be done via PM.

Sorry but who is this directed at?

It's clearly a play on words

As was my response. Obviously.

On page 11, a teaser about a new line coming - inspired by 1970s watch design and “There’s one genre of watch that our collection is missing.” Perhaps the return of a motorsport line?

First thing I thought was integrated bracelet steel sports watch. Admittedly that is taking quite a bit from the teaser image and the fact that it is a butterfly clasp on the bracelet.

Ooh, interesting speculation. They do make reference to Royal Oak and Nautilus in the write up, both of which have integrated bracelets, correct? I’m intrigued!

They do indeed.

^^^ Well every man and his dog now does an integrated bracelet “sports” watch. No reason for CW not to do the same…

If they make it 39mm, with a height of 9mm-10mm and a non chunky correctly tapered bracelet and 100m WR that would be good.

Where's this one going forumites?

Missing genre could include

quartz watch,
chronograph,
daily alarm watch,
tuning fork hummer,
pocket watch,
"for smaller wrists formerly described as a ladies watch",
doubtless others. 100m WR doesn't point towards it being at all "diver-ish".

What would a "carbon neutral, wind or solar powered watch" look like?

Not sure about genres, but it’s been a while since we had squares... I almost bought a makaira the other day, but a seventies square would suit me down to the ground
