Almost enough info to convince me it's a watch :lol:
Still, I am always curious about collaborations because my favourite CW watch is the Sandstorm. You never know what crazy creativity or unusualness might be injected by a collaboration (assuming it's not just a colour change on a standard model...)

One can just see a sand-rippled-by-wind texture on the dial as the light moves around the case. Might also be a grey dial, which is a feature that always leaves me unimpressed.

Looks like a really nice dial variant and a strap with blue stitching.

From the case, markers and hands it looks like a C65 Dune variant.

The grain on the leather strap could be the Vacona strap, otherwise used for the C1 Bel Canto :-k :-k

That's the "not universally popular" vacona strap.

The textured sand effect dial, I don't know where it originated but the usual youtube suspects have been very complimentary about one or two Aliexpress watches with a sand dial: no doubt the CW watch under discussion here will be several steps up the quality ladder. 38mm case presumably.

I agree. The hour markers & smooth bezel indicate a Dune variant with an interesting textured wave dial. The chronometer logo indicates an accurate Cosc certified movement.

Oh that's a lovely and interesting dial. Not sure it's for me, but will look forward to clearer pics to see how it looks out in the world :thumbup:

Sand dunes make a lot of sense for a dune watch. It's different to the Omega versions where the patterns are sharply delineated. These look shaped like real sand dunes. Certainly interesting. :D
