Hi Swelly

Welcome to the Club.

I have a C5 Malvern Aviator Mark II with a black dial on the tan strap.

Although I have other CW watches and a Steinhart Ocean 1 with a green bezel on back order, my C5 will always be my daily beater.

It's a truly great watch and a good size at 38mm.

Good luck

To be honest, the description of a 38mm watch which orks casual and formal, for use every day, and with a strap which can survive oils etc. in work is describing either a C5 Aviator with a steel bracelet or, for a little more money, a Speedbird III.

Do let us know what your decision is in the end.

Thanks again for all you advise.
I've ordered the C5 Aviator Mk11 with a black dial this afternoon. I've also ordered a couple of NATO straps from Time Factors.
Just need to be patient now and wait for the post.

So who does 1 know in Red Bull Racing :lol: :lol: and Glad you like your time piece but as we all said we only need 1 And Yet so so many down the line :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thought Red Bull had a deal going with Casio Edifice? Surely you should be wearing one of those instead :shock:

Actually, with the bonuses that must have been kicking around from last season, I would've expected something more in the racing line like a nice C90 Becketts :lol:

Only joking, a C5 is always a nice choice, so enjoy it. :D
