I’m sure they can be attached in place and the fixings are only reachable from inside the box, which of course you’ll need the key to access.

Re: Ideas required

You could always fit something like this.

Do a google search for ‘home parcel box’ and you’ll find lots of inspiration.

Re: Murphy20 - March 2024.

Nice collection you’ve acquired. I’m a Bremont fan but agree with you that I don’t think the Airco looks right on that nato. The Bremont bracelet isn’t great but it would suit a strap well.

Re: Ooh - cancel the August holiday!!!

I was glad to hear that the new HQ will still be close by in Maidenhead. I'll be there asap. With rumours circulating that Bremont are scaling back plans for production in the UK, I thought CW could have put in a cheeky offer to buy the wing off them. :lol: We’ll have to organise another forum outi...

Re: Non CW of the Day

Home early from my cursed holiday. First the last minute change of accommodation, then this morning we have a call from my daughter’s friend who looks after the cat to say he’s not well. Pack up and head home and are now just waiting to go to the vets.

Re: Ooh - cancel the August holiday!!!

Thanks for sharing.

I did find it interesting to note that Kate, the marketing director, never once referred to the company as Christopher Ward, only ever CW. Especially given her role within the company.

Re: Non CW of the Day

Definitely give it serious thought. I've sold off watches that I really enjoyed as part of the process of "upgrading", only to now start downgrading as it's really not everything I thought it would be. :problem: They're just watches, so if you enjoy what you have, stick firm. Not everyone...

Re: Bracelet conundrum; Tudor Black Bay Heritage P-01

That’s unfortunate Guy. Of the ones you’ve linked to on the watchgecko site, I would say the Hylton or the Berwick would suit best. I’m not sure about the clasp on the Hylton though. If you do a google image search for Tudor P01 bracelet you can see what others have fitted to theirs if you need some...

Re: Bracelet conundrum; Tudor Black Bay Heritage P-01

Do Tudor offer a bracelet for this watch or was it available only on a strap?

If they did then I would be looking for one that matched closest to the original.

Re: Non CW of the Day

I’ve brought this away as my only watch for a weeks holiday. However while away I made the mistake of going into a shop and trying on the latest IWC Ingenieur. The black faced version and I found it was almost perfect. I’m now seriously considering selling this, my Seamaster Professional, my Bremont...
