I received a phone call, with a follow-up email as I couldn't answer the phone call, to say that the service on my "timepiece" has been completed and ready to pick up.
11 days not 10 weeks !
Now I have to find a spare day to collect it.

Re: Crystal and case durability of CW watches
In my experience the cases and crystals on CW watches are neither more or less prone to scratching than those of other brands. - Those that just wear their watches, but are sufficiently self aware not to get them banged up, whilst accepting an occasional scratch as part of normal watch ownership. N...

Re: Buy a 2020 Rolex or order new & wait? Same ref & price
Sorry but I must have originated from a different planet as I wouldn't be in a rush to spend virtually £13k for new or pre-owned. Time for me to go I think

Re: Moonwatch pusher fallen off - update
For a true one watch individual, perhaps AD's should start offering a courtesy watch for the duration of the repair, a bit like you get when your car goes in for a service. I love this idea :D Me too. I can't imagine what they'd have as courtesy watches though. If they were of a similar standard to...

Re: Non CW of the Day
Thnx, it is quite an discovery to admit that you sometimes just need to lie down, take your medicine and take a break for a few days. L4/L5 have gone askew and pushed the ischiatic nerve. I went to work for a whole week under painkillers and collapsed yesterday...off we go to ER. Its not dangerous ...

Re: New Omega Moonwatch - the "Daniel Craig" White Dial
^^ IMO the whole subject of DON really is a load of nonsense unless you are looking to buy what could be a vintage Moonwatch where the correct bezel would be 1 of the areas to check to authenticate the watch. Yet some people make such a fuss over it but each to their own. Maybe it's explained somewh...

Re: Automatic Watch Assistance
I don’t wear it everyday, probably 3-4 times a week. On days I don’t wear I try to remember to wind. stefs point was that you shouldn't need to hand wind it at all. Generally for a (CW) automatic that needs winding after a period of not being worn it should be enough to put it your wrist and the mo...

Re: New Omega Moonwatch - the "Daniel Craig" White Dial
Simply put, it's great! As for limited production watches, or limited release watches, it's not a new concept, and many brands have done so in the past, including Omega. And as for prices! Well, many of the big boys and others, CW included, have been raising them, some more than others. The Swiss w...

Re: New Omega Moonwatch - the "Daniel Craig" White Dial
What are people's thoughts on this? Launching tomorrow (apparently) - I spoke to OB on Regent street and they cannot confirm that that is what is being released tomorrow, but were happy for me to be put on the wait list of such watch if it's released! I understand there is a launch even tomorrow at...

Re: Moonwatch pusher fallen off - update
I don't know how much has been released about the likely specifications of it but they expect it to have sapphire crystal on front and back, to be a readily available model (eventually?) and sell around the price level of the standard black dial version. I guess we'll know tomorrow. Interesting tha...
