Where do snow leopards fit in with this theory of yours???
They specifically mentioned two watches.

Rich, we can't be totally sure of anything. Maybe they were mentioned together because they will only be sold in a pair, and are directly related.

I'm not sure, but the question has me googling "do snow leopards like to swim":

per the internet:
"Unlike most cats, leopards are strong swimmers and are one of the few cats that like water, although they are not as aquatic as tigers."

The answer is on the tip of my tongue but I can't quite get it.

So true! I am envisioning an SH21 GMT with a white dial. Snow Leopard instead of Polar!

I do think you nailed BMF.

On the CW website there is an article about the money raised for snow leopards (David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation) from sales of the Anthropocene. A reasonable guess would be another white dial watch using the SH21 movement to support this foundation.

Also, a CW article about the Blue Marine Foundation (BMF).

I have no inside knowledge, but it seems possible snow leopard and BMF are referring to two new watches supporting these foundations.

Hers a thought. CW precious metals. Use an ounce of white gold, a snow leopard being an ounce. :D

That would be a good way to go out, and a CW PM variant would surely make another affordable statement, with a queue around the block :D

My guess would be ‘Bramley Moore Fund’ - Everton can’t afford to finish building their new stadium and Mike seems keen get more involved with them….. :lol:

Ach, you’ve worked it out. CW have designed my one watch for me. I haven’t quite yet figured out what I need from my one watch so it’s going to be the size of a tuna tin. It’ll be something as practical as a Swiss Army knife. White dial of course (currently). Probably diamonds and pastel colours. Helium release valve. :lol:

I instantly thought BMF may be a Bamford collaboration? (CW seem to be into collabs now)
