The code #'s will tell you they are different.

Well, the bracelets for the 38mm and 40mm C60s fit my 39mm Sealander auto just fine.

But they don’t work as well on my Sealander GMT even though it’s also 39mm and 20mm lugs? Not sure why.

With a much smaller case, I’d imagine you need the bracelet specifically made for the 36mm model.

I bought my 36mm Sealander on strap and will give my C60 bracelet a go, but I’m not hopeful.

Plus, the bracelets for the 36mm taper down to 16.5mm, which would be nicer than the 18mm of the other 20mm bracelets.

Looks like the CW website is showing the Tiffany blue color as sold out.

And pre-orders for the other colours now August-October. Clearly a good release so far.

Seems I'm in the minority here thinking these are very .... ordinary

Same silver indices, same colours seen on other watches, same look, everything, just a smaller size. Oh, and we'll make it a Limited Edition because we've run out of other ideas.

Many sayings sum it up - 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder', Shakespeare's 'Beauty is bought by judgement of the eye' or perhaps the best similar phrase, Franklin's 'Beauty, like supreme dominion, is but supported by opinion'.

I like them and in fact my finger twitched on two - the green on bracelet and the yellow on the camel strap. But I totally accept that others won't.

Ultimately CW are a for-profit organisation and it would seem by how quickly they are flying off the shelves that they have measured the mood perfectly.

I think it’s a new bracelet especially for the 36mm with more of a taper.

Much appreciated. Indeed it very much seems like they are 2 different animals.

Personally, I don't think it matters really. Different releases will appeal to different people. I think one difference must be the price though. A standout difference between the Atoll, and these 36mm Sealanders is that a limited edition can most likely be priced rather more competitively, as the manufacturer isn't sitting on a pile of unsold stock/components. The next version can have have a different dial colour or treatment, different hands, different indices and so on.

Anyone had the despatch email yet? I was told they would hopefully be starting to ship today and as I placed my order in the first hour thought I would be among the first but nowt so far.

Nothing here and I placed mine at a similar time. I spoke to them today because I'm away next week and wanted to know whether it would be here or if I should to ask them to hold it until I'm back. They didn't have much of a clue, just mentioned they had a lot of orders

I ordered at 11:20am on Thursday. Heard nothing yet.

Does anyone know whether these will have the new style double screw head bracelet links, rather than the older style?

Double screws looking at the pictures if you ask me.

Nope, also quiet at my end. Although the delivery of my new straps is pretty much next day

Not had a despatch email yet, but the watch does show as "Being prepared for despatch" on my CW account.

Same here, ordered as soon as they went up… still showing as “being prepared for dispatch”.

I did (for once) select next day delivery, but CS contacted me on Thursday and said they’d cancel that, as they couldn’t guarantee next day. I was told it is expected to ship this week, but no date given.

I’m in no rush anyway as it happens as it’s intended for a gift for November, but like everyone else, am super curious to see it
