Really excited so just wanted to post that I put in a preorder for the C70 DBR1. The watch design may not be for everyone but I feel it is truly unique and beautiful. Plus I have a thing for Astons as well.
This will also be my first Quartz watch. Figured I need something to help time the others off of.
Anyways just wanted to say thanks to the CW forum. There are some great pictures of the C70 in the gallery and that's what helped the decision.

Congratulations Jay, great choice. The DBR1 is one of the most sought after watches in the C70 series.

Yep you will love it, I am a big fan of the C70 range, it was a bold original design from Christopher Ward.

Re: My first CW purchase: C70 DBR1
Classy choice - just be careful with the bezel as it can mark easily with light knocks, but a very pretty watch and as aston as newport pagnellGinger Jay wrote:Really excited so just wanted to post that I put in a preorder for the C70 DBR1.

Re: My first CW purchase: C70 DBR1
Man, talk about some teasing. But thank you!! The pictures are amazing and now I am even more excited!
Re: My first CW purchase: C70 DBR1
These watches are definitely growers, first sight of the generic design I didn't like them, but must admit to a number of them now appealing and most certainly the DBR1.
