Re: C63 SH21 Snow Leopard
CW ’s premier movement, in a special edition, and still no applied logo. hmmmm. :problem: I'm not sure that an applied logo would look good against the textured dials. A bit too 3-D if you catch my meaning. They can do applied logos now but for these two the printed one works best. Your mileage may...

Re: C63 SH21 Snow Leopard
…and at least they're not transparent dials 😁. Haha! So true. There was a period there where everything seemed to be about the sapphire dial! I wonder if we’re moving into a textured dial phase, kicked off with the LE with the Scottish saltire on it, then the forum LE, now these. :lol: The C63 High...

Re: C63 Snow Leopard or BMF or both and, if both why?
Overall I prefer the Blue Marine. I have a C60 #Tide and a C60 BLUE and I don't find the dial treatment too close at all. It's the colour of the dial that sells the BMF to me. The leopard print is a bit too subtle for me although I do prefer the treatmetn of the power reserve on the Snow Leopard but...

Re: C63 Snow Leopard or BMF or both and, if both why?
The sticking point here is "if you look". The GS are most likely standard production. The BMF and SL are limited editions likely to appeal to a certain very specific audience. There's also a 400 pound price difference which will definitely affect a lot of people's thinking. If these two LE...

Re: Why Always Out of Stock?
@Charlie Big Bananas If you are not comfortable with the stock situation at CW, just go for Rolex instead. The ADs are cutting prices like there’s no tomorrow, the stock is piled up in the aisles, they are practically giving them away. :wink: :irony: I can't tell if this is sarcasm, wishful thinkin...

I like to think of him as a second generation Max Headroom, only not as funny.

Re: Bel Canto - Ready Steady Teddy
Whenever I watch a Teddy video I always think he's a deep fake. Have you noticed that his hair never moves? At least he likes the Bel Canto. Thanks for findsing this.

Re: My thoughts on Omega
I own my fair share of Omega watches. The exact number is a closely guarded secret lest a higher authority find out. I have enjoyed this thread. My father owned and wore an Omega Geneve for many years and so I can plausibly claim that this watch was one of my reasons for liking Omega watches. But if...

Re: Banned without explanation
Sorry, I'm new here. What's a Bel Canto? Do I have to own one to post here? I think this should have been in the forum rules when I signed up. Please don't ban me.

Re: How important is the “Bel Canto effect”?
But I've spent a lot of years involved with a variety of businesses and if I'm putting myself in Mike France's shoes I think I see where this is going. The discount vouchers, a feature of the marketing over some years, are gone. There's more buzz for the brand and the entry level pricing is very co...

Re: Another Bel Canto thread: this one's for the non-owners, the unbelievers
One of the consequences of the Bel Canto effect (Thanks Kip) is the confusion between hype and marmite. This isn't a watch for everyone and isn't a watch for every occasion. The hype seems to have obscured the taste of the marmite but long term ownership would probably bring that to the forefront. I...
