Ahhh thanks Steve!
That’s a shame. CW are usually known for their high quality straps. :?

That’s a shame as they were showing stock for the best part of two days. Keep checking back on the website and on here in the bargain thread as that’s how I found out. They may come up again.

Congratulations Steve :thumbup:
Interesting to hear about your view of the "you know what" :silent:
Hoping that I feel the same way when the Ombré turns up.

Well, it ran for 46hrs & 5mins on one full wind.
It was +3 secs after 36hrs and +1 after 40hrs. By 45hrs it had slowed to -15 secs.
I’ll take that.

True to my word, I packed it away and handed it over to my wife, for stashing away until Christmas.

She told me not to be silly and to get on and enjoy it, just as long as I remember it’s a Christmas pressie. :D

So here it is.

Plural of Oris? I should think it matters. Orises would probably do fine as the least pretentious option.

Anyway, I’m glad she’s letting you wear it, Steve.

Glad you overcame the logo issue as well. Really not that important.
