How much was the C1 moonglow posted for ? I can’t believe that I missed it … by 15 minutes
It was 30% off so £1,295. Good luck trying to get one. Make sure you have your CW account open when you are looking and I checked out through Paypal which seemed quicker than checking out and paying by card as I've done in the past. You don't have the time to think about it! but it was the only watch I was hoping would come up and bonus it has the twin flags logo, I was expecting if one came up it would have the CW name logo.
I almost missed it, was just getting ready to take the dog out!
I was able to pick the other CW name logo Moonglow, and a little bit more cheap because of my ME location.
Quick update: This is the first time I was able to connect to CS through the telephone number after emailing Matt and the team. Unfortunately, they cannot do anything to the payment once it went through. They can cancel it and the watch will be put back on the website again but I can't guarantee my luck that I will be able to purchase it again. Thus, look like I will pay the Canadian price for now .... It's a bit sad though cuz it's about $300CAD difference which is quite significant but hey, at least its' 30% off.

I just don’t want them to ship both before I can get a hold off them. Tbh, their customer service has been hard to reach nowadays and I don’t want to deal with duties for both then returning one.
Have anyone here succeeded in asking them to refund the original amount and issue you the invoice in GBP ? That would be the easiest way to deal with but of course less money for CW.

I made a similar miscalculation and bought the C60 Sunrise in USD and could have saved ~$100 had I used GBP.... my solution was to buy another watch, a C60 Trident Pro 300, with GBP to recognize a better average savings

Brilliant! It’s not even man maths - just the knowledge that the more you buy in a sale the greater your savings

^^^ Man maths (or bloke sums) doesn’t stop with watches. I wasn’t going away this spring until I saw two weeks at my favourite Greek hotel in May advertised with a very attractive early bird discount. No brainer. I booked it.
