My First Grail Watch, by Christopher Ward
Sorry if this was posted already, I couldn't find it if it was. Yesterday's ABlogToWatch had a quick little interview of CW about his first grail watch. Kind of interesting.

Re: My First Grail Watch, by Christopher Ward
Thanks Cholmes
Chris has spoken about his fondness (to put it mildly) for Russell and Liverpudlian watchmaking before.
What has surprised me is that he never produced an automatic C1

Re: My First Grail Watch, by Christopher Ward
Thanks for the link, it's very interesting.
Robin, the C1 was just a quartz model? When i came to know CWL this model was not available anymore....maybe a ltd automatic edition someday?
And since his 1st grail was a pocket watch maybe theres hope for the ones here that collect them....market seems a little weak nowadays but again, maybe a ltd edition pocket watch?
Maybe a pocket mechanical C1? 2 birds with 1 stone...or maybe i'm just crazy...
Thanks again.
Cheers,
Sifion.

I like how Christopher Ward seems to actually care about his watches. He genuinely seems to enjoy his work, which makes it all the better for us consumers
