I like it but not enough to join the wait list. Fun, just not for me. Congrats to CW & MJW for the enthusiastic support. SOLD OUT!

I tried my best to convince myself to consider it, in case I regretted it later, but it wasn't to be.
Congrats to those who appreciate the watch and have bought one - enjoy👍 Horses for courses. As long as you 'like' then that's all that matters in my book👍

I’m not any kind of expert concerning the Mr. Jones line of watches aside from what I can see on their website. It certainly does appear that this collaboration with CW will be a huge improvement with the light catcher case. At any rate I think this would be my pick of the bunch.

CW's bracelet is also miles better than their dinky mesh strap. When I got my Number Cruncher, I tried adjusting the slidable clasp on the mesh strap (moved it up as my wrist is small) , then realised the clasp couldn't snap fully shut once you moved it too far up as the strap was thicker higher up.

Swapped it for my own yellow leather strap, and it looks and wears great.

So yeah, having CW hardware on a MJW design is a major upgrade.

i think it's neat Out of the box. Something different to see and talk about than batons over arabic numbers, sword hands or pencil hands, lume or no lume, date window at 6 or at 3, etc, etc, ad infinitum.

But it's not for me. I like the Bel Canto also and appreciate that it has given CW a shot in th arm. But I have no ambition to own one.

Not surprised to see this watch sell out in a flash

Received delivery of this fantastic watch on Monday, and I love it, the watch Is both capricious and practical. I am seeking a playful strap to go with this, so would appreciate any suggestions.
