Re: How often do you see strangers wearing a CW?
That's it, I'm determined to spot a CWL in the wild. I'll do it even if it kills me.

It was great to pop in and say hello to Tetlee today. What a nice guy.Tetlee wrote:I saw a stranger wearing a CW earlier today, it was a Scooter Blue C60, #001. Cool watch and cool owner too
Tetlee, I apologise for asking you if you thought my scooter blue needed a new battery before introducing myself.
Your professionalism in explaining that my CW didn't have a battery without calling me a plonker did you much credit.
Your Smiths Astral was lovely and as I said, AVO would have approved.

maybe this is what we all need to do - shorten the odds a bit.
for example - i can often be found writing and drinking tea in a place called Forest Cafe in Edinburgh. so if anyone wants to spot a CW watch 'in the wild', this could be a place to try!

watching you fail in your quest for a “one watch” has been great entertainment

Likewise Scooter, and no appology needed, you'd be surprised how often I get asked that question with mechanical and automatic watchesscooter wrote:It was great to pop in and say hello to Tetlee today.

Was great to see you, and finally the fabled Scooter Blue C60 in the flesh, it certainly is a lovely watch and far nicer than my old C60 Orange which I flipped some time back.
Did take me back a bit when I realised who you were, I actually get to see a good few CW's here(my odds are better than many it's fair to say ) but none from here until now.
Thanks for the comment on the Smiths, I do love that watch(wearing my Jump Hour today, dammit, one day out!).

I was exhibiting at IPEXPO within Londons ExCel this past week. A supplier whom I have known for some time but not of his interest in watches was lending a hand on our stand. He just so happened to be a brand new C3. My first wild spot!

I'll try to remember to wear my C60 GMT next time I do my shopping in Waitrose in Woodley.... would that help?Berkshire wrote:That's it, I'm determined to spot a CWL in the wild. I'll do it even if it kills me.
So I wish I was James Bond, just for the day.
