Though the AD copy from the launch appears that they are promoting the twelve in all three sizes: 36mm, 38mm, 40mm.
No; all three sizes for both models will continue; four sizes on The Twelve, if you count the 41mm 12X versions. :wink: :wink:

Love this conversation… I’ve been holding up the clearance C60 Anthropocene to my wife as a shining example of my will power and forbearance. I’m the weirdo who likes the screws, the cloudy sapphire, and the visible date wheel. lol!

You & me, both. :wink: :wink:

At one point, around a year or so ago, I actually owned two C60 Anthropocene GMTs; one 'Christopher Ward' logo and the other 'Twin Flags' logo. I kept one on a bracelet and switched the other around on straps. :D :D

I’d seen the milky date wheel but not the screws. Now I’ve seen them I can’t unsee them and they’re definitely not for me.

Sometimes the forum is a good deterrent rather than enabler!

Interesting how this NN model has become a sign/signal of controlling impulses (aka watch purchasing). :lol:

I like the anthropocene, but I've just ordered a c60 pro 300 in white. I know the former is a GMT and there's other differences, but I think shaving 3mm off the thickness trumps the rest.

For about the same money as the anthropocene I think the Pro300 GMT with the blue and white bezel is a great and modern looking alternative.

Getting excited though I did technically buy it as a gift for my brother. He already has 300+ watches so maybe I'll keep it for myself. :lol:

I think that you are going to find this one to be a very nice watch. I wouldn't be surprised if you end up keeping it!

The Anthropocene was my CW dream watch for the longest time.

I still think it looks awesome and I'm surprised it's still there. They've usually been snapped up quick like.

It's gone so if one of you scoundrels on this forum purchased it, own up to it (dial screws and all). :lol:

One of these days I hope CW can get their listing pictures correct.
I wanted a CW watch not a Morgan watch (i.e. logo).
This one is going back.

^^^ Interesting.

A bespoke model. The C60 Elite 1000 Jedburgh. Is it a production prototype (000 serial number)?

What paperwork did it come with?

@Kip
Thanks.

Looks like a standard serial with 3 letters + 3 numbers, although seems to have personal engraving (but this a code of some sort). Would they make a prototype of this even if it is/was in (I think) standard production?

The only paperwork was a warranty card.

Waiting to hear back from CW-CS.
