Christopher Ward Forum

For some reason this watch never gets worn as much as it should. And every time I do wear it I always ask why I don’t wear it more often.

I don’t think there has ever been any instance of its use on the forum in any kind of spiteful or derogatory sense. I don’t think that anyone who actually uses the term intends it to have negative connotations. It probably started being used on forums when it was more acceptable to use the word idi...

I believe the word idiot has now been replaced to better represent modern thinking. I think it’s perhaps more correct to recognise that the term idiot, once a medical definition, entered common parlance and became misused; changing, or at the very least distorting the original meaning of the word. ...

It could be seen an insulting to use this term now. The WIS acronym comes from the use of the term Idiot Savant. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/idiot-savant I’m pretty sure, but might be wrong, that the Doctor in the film Rain Man uses this phrase to diagnose the character playe...

Cheers to all and Dominic Cummings

Enjoy

Thanks Andy

Can I offer a Welsh word, which is also used when speaking English, which makes it a form of what's called Wenglish in Wales: Cwtch A form of tight hug or cuddle, often done side by side on a sofa. "I'm in need of a big cwtch" or "You look like you need a cwtch." Also proven to have medicinal benef...

Wearing this on a Red Rock canvas strap today, it’s been on this for a few days and it gives the watch a very different look and feel to the bracelet.

Enjoying a beer with this while sat in the garden after work.

It’s a shame they’ve lost the day date window with this refresh.

Just bought a Hirsch Robby, not leather I know, but it arrived with quick release spring bars fitted. Not sure if it’s just this strap or whether Hirsch have rolled out quick release spring bars across their whole range.
