Re: CW Regrets

No regrets. There was a reason behind the decision to sell every one I did sell and the reasons still stand. I have more regrets about the ones I didn't buy, but maybe that's for another day.

Bremont definitely sells end links. Just give them a call.

Re: An Interesting Math Problem

I watched that last week and was (eventually) relieved to find that my initial answer, based on 2PiR was correct.... strange behavior depending on the point from which the rotation is viewed though.

"CW hadn't kept inventory of parts available for repair".

Unbelievable.

Trident mk2 bracelet end links - which bracelets will they work with?

I've been trying, for some time and unsuccessfully, to track down a bracelet for my 38mm mk2 Trident (20mm). However, I have found a set of PCL end links and I'm wondering which bracelets they might work with.

Thanks!

Phil

Re: CW watches getting smaller and smaller

Meh. Fashion is driven by the producers, and rarely by the consumer. The need to have people buy something 'new' is what dictates it. Marketing directs the attention. Anything sub 39mm looks ridiculous on me so I'll keep buying what I like, not what 'fashion' tells me to like.

Re: Falling out of love

Why get wound up about the delay? You've been told end November and been given a sweetener. Just sit back and wait patiently. If you cancel and get a refund, I'm sure CW will be able to resell your watch. Guy Sent from my Galaxy S23 Ultra using Tapatalk Way to go at minimizing his justified frustra...

Re: The Twelve Dial Colours

All I want is a Twelve with a grown up dial either plain black (not ombre) or white with good hand contrast, therefore white inserts on hands of the black dial or the reverse with a white dial. Am I so wrong as to want a sport watch to look like one rather than a dress watch? Nope. I'm completely w...
