I just spotted the tiny red highlights at 6,9 and 12 when I posted this pic! Lovely detail and texture on what’s by nature a plain and legible design :D

That's a great pic. I've been trying to get a good day shot of mine to show off the green dial but haven't managed anything even half that good yet.

Just received a C60 bracelet in superb condition from our very own Mr Mc Dermott (thanks Ferg 👍) and it’s perfect on my CWEC… liked the #Tide, but the bracelet really makes the watch for me 😃

A recent arrival for me today... a Chris Ward C63 Sealander GMT..features the new SW 330-2 movement, and a 'scratched' green dial housed in a 39mm SS case..so far so good...

Excited for everyone who picked one of these up in the sale at a steal of a deal and discovered how awesome this watch really is!

Thanks. But I usually take about 10 shots in various positions and lighting before I end up with a good one! Then a bit of light editing… And I may have upgraded my phone to the iPhone 13 pro last fall just for the camera :D

Abyss runs about +12 so I expect it to break in and run about +8. Good enough for wrist duty!

I couldn't agree more. I was one of those people that picked up an Abyss on a bracelet in the January sale & couldn't be happier. Such a nice looking watch that exceeded my expectations in person. Your picture does bring some of those features out!

The rubber failed at the buckle last week so I put the bracelet on, it’s a completely different feel. It is like having a new watch.

Well thats probably the worst picture of a watch that looks fantastic ive ever seen! (Compliment!)
(Along with this being the worst written sentence in a while!!!!)

What a great way to show off a lovely watch. I thought it was a poppy field at a glance! :clap:

I’m curious if you know whether CW stocks replacements for the rubber?

I don’t know but it is/was a great strap so I’d like another if they do.

I’ll enquire.
