Re: C70 Brooklands 1926

Well, for what it's worth, I also took advantage of the recent sale to have a look at the C70 VW4 version with a brown strap. Though I appreciated the quality of the watch, I took advantage of CW's 60 day return policy and returned the watch. It just wasn't this Yankee's cuppa tea. I wouldn't be sur...

Re: Help me decide on a blue beater - Orient vs Squale

It's Squale for me. Besides the history, quality and homage look, I love the sunburst blue dial and bezel. My Certina DS diver has the sunburst blue and it's a delight to look at as it plays with the light.

Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military - any thoughts?

I've got the latest version and it gets a lot of wrist time.
Fits great on my 16 cm wrist.
Go for it! :D

Re: Sale is now on

I usually have to wait about one week once I get the shipping confirmation for the package to arrive at my doorstep in New York City.

Re: Why are all Tridents 50% off?

Gentlemen, I think you just stumbled across the end of season sale. I bought my first CW watch at the end last year for roughly the same discount. It wouldn't hurt to call CW and voice your displeasure at the timing of your purchases. Who knows, (Maybe Kip.) they just may make an adjustment for your...

Re: Poll: Which blue dress diver ?

It may not be your cup of tea, too much of an homage maybe, but I got to see and hold the Certina DS Action Diver in Blue at the AD today in NYC. Really nice. And the Jomashop sale has me seriously pondering a new purchase.

Re: The Bargain Hunters Thread

Jomashop gets flamed with horrific reviews on Yelp. They sound like a nightmare in the making should something go wrong with your order. Anybody have anything nice to say about them??

Re: Quartz reinvented?

Pardon me. I just saw the prices at the end of the article and I need to reattach my jaw to my skull. Some lovely watches but I could never imagine laying down that kind of money.

Re: Introducing the C60 Blackout PVD Coated Diver!

Well, I liked Reggie's Steinhart all black beast so much I went out and got my own, so yeah, I'd be interested in a C60 version. But color and top quality lume will be needed on the hands and hour markers. Also, I must add that the DLC coating on my Steinhart has proved to be tougher than nails. Unl...

Re: Tissot or Steinhart

I did buy direct from their website and the process was easy. The only complication came when I requested a variation that is not offered on their website, but that they did fulfill. Delivery was timely to my home in New York but I must say that both times I did have to pay a small additional custom...

Re: Tissot or Steinhart

Another :thumbup: for Steinhart. I have the Ocean Vintage Military and the Ocean Black DLC version. Both are beauties, well-made, and fine time keepers. The Rolex homage issue doesn't bother me in the least. Can't imagine them ever leaving my collection. I had a bit of an ordering issue when I reque...
