Weird that they’d post it with a typo in the very first sentence of the ad...! (“...like they used too”?)

Re: Non CW of the Day

Great detective work to pick that one up. I often fancied the yellow version but I wasn't in a position to buy at the time. Guy Cheers Guy - I saw a blue one and a yellow one in Vancouver last year and nearly grabbed one on the spot, but decided to hold out for red. Then they started disappearing! ...

Re: Non CW of the Day

After a few years of obsessing over this one, I finally picked up what I think is the last brand-new red Autodromo Group B, from a shop in Montreal, and brought it back to Sydney. It’s getting a lot of wear (on a range of NATO and Perlon straps I’m trying out), even though it’s an early birthday pre...

Re: It’s not all about watches!

Here’s my new Canon FTb from 1971. (Lens borrowed from another camera) https://preview.ibb.co/hduNJc/6_BFA3_B00_40_E3_4_A86_9_D21_3_E47_EF4_A28_F8.jpg My first camera! That’s the same model (FTb) my dad gave me in the late eighties, when he upgraded to an autofocus Nikon. I had a trio of prime lens...

What do you want CW to release next

I’d personally love to see a C65 MkII Vintage, exactly as it currently is (38mm, automatic movement, no bezel, vintage lume etc) with a blue face. I reckon vintage lume against blue would look outstanding...!

Re: New C7 picture

Think it might be 7750. The small crosshair dail at 9 has a hand but no markings, so I expect it's the running seconds implementation. It's the same as a Trident Chronograph. I imagine the three red-tipped hands are the chronograph hands, and everything else tells time. It's a nice touch, to pull t...

Re: The New C7 Rapide Motorsport Collection

Is it weird that the numbers on the bezel change orientation, between 15 & 20? That seems odd, to me.

Re: Non CW of the Day

Still enjoying this one, as a daily beater / swim & travel watch, it's doing pretty well! And the lume lasts pretty much all night, given a bit of time under the bedside lamp.

Re: Favourite Watch Under £150 At The Moment

Is USD$220 less than GBP150? I've been really impressed with this so far, picked it up second hand (but pristine) for AUD$240, just last week...
