That Deep Blue SC grabbed my attention, as did a few others. I’m being disciplined and holding onto my money for a 36mm Sealander.

Got a Hunter Green C63 GMT on the way.

I managed to last eight years since I bought my first CW and now I've ordered two in the last four days. :shock:

I really struggled with deep blue or the light blue and considered getting both but decided it’s kind of a jerk move to grab everything off the shelves and landed on the light blue. One can only own so many dark blue things.

I’m staring at a white Sealander gmt in my cart, trying to estimate my wife’s reaction if I pull the trigger….

It isn’t 36 mm though

I will correct that for you Andrew:

“I’m being disciplined and holding onto my money to save it towards my retirement watch - a JLC Reverso.” :)

You know it makes sense.

If you think it enough times it will be.

Some great pieces on there (the C60 Abyss SH21 really catches my eye), but I'm not in the market for anything new right now.

Good luck all who are hoping to pick something up this time around!

I got NN black c63 sealander gmt on the tide strap. First CW watch.

Not gonna lie tho, I think I have expected better pricing.

595 + 175 (if I want a bracelet) = 770, a brand new one on a bracelet is 970 and once the voucher is back it will be 870 with probably a new logo soon. Therefore, the difference between a brand new one and nearly new is 100GBP. Idk. We will see.
