A very nice lot, are we now we are free to help with the decision? The C600s gets my vote. It’s a theme I usually avoid, but there a steampunk vibe to this that really works. I think it’s the patina on the bezel against that blue dial. What exactly did you do to mod this one?

I have 2 CWs and while they are somewhat different I just can't split them.
My first CW was/is a C65 Trident Diver. I enjoy the hand-winding experience and that big clear charming face makes me smile each time I wear it. I like it more today than when I was having the honeymoon more than 2 years ago so can't say better than that. A bit big for Sean Connery's James Bond but he would have loved it.
My second CW is the C63 GMT Polar. As mentioned previously, CW nailed it with this watch, so versatile, moved the game on, robust for almost anything and it looks great. Comfy and a perfect size for me. Ummm, CW makes great watches.

Judging by what I've seen, I would suspect my next purchase (although how long it will take to persuade Mrs Rothko, I'm not sure) is likely to be the C65 Dartmouth, which is utterly gorgeous as well.

This is my favourite though.

Back in September, reviewing my newly acquired C63 Sealander GMT, I finished with the following:

My conclusions: I’m going to stick my neck out here and say that I think this is the best CW watch I have owned.

I can’t say that it is CW‘s best ever watch, because I haven’t experienced most of them, except fleetingly in Declan‘s Room of Wonders, or on display or adorning another person’s wrist at a GTG. There may well be other worthy and viable candidates for that accolade for all sorts of reasons. However, I think that the C63 range in general has to be right up there.

You will notice that I hedged my bets slightly because I couldn’t come right out and call it CW’s best ever watch. So I limited the accolade to my own personal experience.

Well, six months on and my personal best ever CW may have a rival. I am aware that the New Watch Love Goggles are still on, but I am really taken with my latest arrival, the C9 SH 21 Small Seconds Chronometer. Early days, but first indications are that this could well turn out to be a real winner. I kicked myself for not buying one when they were introduced, and I’m thrilled to have one now. I’ve heard lots of great things about the SH 21 movement, so now it’s time to see for myself. Set at midday yesterday, this is how it looks after 30 hours. Doing what it says on the tin, I think.

Again, I’m limiting my judgements to my own experience. I have no doubt that the Concept and the Single Pusher Chronograph, among others, will have their supporters. And I’m sure there will be others.

I have said my bit so I will sit back and enjoy this. We are not counting and we are not keeping score; just having a bit of fun.

What is your best ever?

Go for it!

I have a Youtube watch channel, and will shortly be reviewing the Sealander GMT. CW kindly asked to produce one for them, but sadly I have to return the watch

Without a shadow of doubt my favourite CW watch. I was completely out of my mind to sell this black sand model, especially as I knew it would be tough to replace.

I own 2 CWs at the moment, Sandhurst and C5, and while both fantastic watches, they can't hold a candle to the SC.

The detail and finishing on it is out of this world, especially when considering the price point.
