Initial reactions - VERY pleased.
I was fearing it would be a plain, matte red, similar to the colour of the enclosed packaging, but the dial thankfully has much more depth and hue.
Beautifulđź‘Ś

Congratulations and top notch Tony.

That's much more like I'd expected from CW's marketing photos and those of my Bel Canto Phoenix.

A perfect colour for Christmas too. Enjoy.

Iain’s Law: Any discussion on the Christopher Ward forum, irrespective of the thread title or subject matter, will eventually lead to someone mentioning the Bel Canto if the thread continues for long enough.

Your photos are the best that I’ve seen so far on this forum. The others aren’t particularly flattering to this colour, but I know from taking pictures myself that it’s quite difficult to get a real-world representation from eye to screen unless you’re a pro, which I am not.

Merry Christmas!

Excellent acquisition and photos. Congrats!

We could use some of those photos here.
