New Sealander Colours
Re: New Sealander Colours
I see they've gone for corresponding colours for the leather straps as well.
I do like the bold colour choices CWL go for even if they are not all to my taste. Although that dragonfly blue almost tempted me on the GMT.

Re: New Sealander Colours
The Kingfisher (what I would call royal blue) is very nice but I don’t need any more (blue) watches right now.

Re: New Sealander Colours
Interesting to see CW has, apart from the Dragonfly, used different colours between the 39mm and 36mm.

Both those blues are fantastic, the Kingfisher especially!

Re: New Sealander Colours
I expect the range of colours to expand across case sizes, eventually,I’d like to see a silver dialled 36mm.
I think this enhances the position of the C63 Sealander as a popular core model, much like the range of OPs and Aqua Terra’s.

Re: New Sealander Colours
I don’t mean to sound curmudgeonly, but the marketing email said 6 new colors, but only 4 of the colors are new. Dragonfly and Mulberry have been around for a while.

Re: New Sealander Colours
Mainly shades of blue. Pleasant shades of blue, but shades of blue. Omega did that a couple of months ago, didn't they?
Re: New Sealander Colours
Very nice additions to the range. As an owner of an aqua terra in black, these are a very tempting offer for the price and spec, especially with the additional colours (not really my thing but lovely none the less). Astounding value when you consider what you are getting. I know it's a well worn saying but bang for your buck the sealander takes some beating.

Re: New Sealander Colours
I’m sure you’re right and it’s a good thing, though given my somewhat limited appreciation of dial colours I do tend to find the website a bit like those paint charts in B&Q!MarkingTime wrote: ↑Thu Sep 12, 2024 1:37 pm I expect the range of colours to expand across case sizes, eventually,I’d like to see a silver dialled 36mm.

Re: New Sealander Colours
Too small for me in 36mm but from website pictures alone I think the Mulberry on black oak leather strap is very striking.
I’m also quite taken by the Glasswing color- I’ve been after a pink(ish) dial for a while now so I’d be tempted if it were in the 39mm. And I expect that one will pick up all kinds of different shades in various light conditions.

I post a few watch pictures now and then to a little Instagram account - 1 follower and counting!
Re: New Sealander Colours
I'm tempted by the 39mm Dagger Silver on the grey Dagger Seta leather strap. It would make a great everyday watch that would go with pretty much anything I wear. Great value at $810 as well. An Aqua Terra for those of us that don't want to pay Aqua Terra prices.

Re: New Sealander Colours
I guess I was confused by the email and thought mulberry was included in this release.
The email does say 6 new colors, but counts dragonfly twice, besides which it was already a color offered. But just not in this size/iteration. None of this matters anyway if I ignore the marketing email and enjoy the release.

Re: New Sealander Colours
For me it never fails. The color I like best is not in the size I like (at least until I see real world pics). At least this time they did both sizes. The last two LE versions have been 36mm.
Life is not a matter of holding good cards, but sometimes, playing a poor hand well.
