Christopher Ward Forum

The white hands look fine to me, edged with black. The watch is wonderful, especially with the black hands. There’s been quite a conversation in another thread about readability with white dials. I believe the hands on these are polished like the C60. Just the lighting making them look dark. Still,...

They'll do nicely when I win the lottery and have my own walk-in watch wardrobe.

They are pretty cool, although a notable absence being the ubiquitous 2824.

^^^ looks great on that strap Ferg

New CW hybrid arrived. Could maybe do with being a smidge thicker at the lugs for the MK2, but still a great strap.

Congratulations G, that is lovely. I would gladly take any of those top 3, but the shimmering dial on yours is quite stunning!

^^^^ Clever and distinctive, worth a premium. Just taking a quick look at the Cartier UK site seems the straps are about £150? If that's correct Cartier are not out of line with other high end houses or the quality strap people - if that makes you feel any better Steve! You are correct Nick. The pr...

I think a lot of the disappointment mainly boils down to the fact that members, secretly (or not), wanted to support Chris/family with their new venture. It sounds as though a couple already might be, some may be hoping to find a future model to their taste and others may feel (myself included) that...

I quite like the look of the PR GMT Sport w/ orange accents. Would like to see more of that movement in other watches.

Just had a quick browse of the strap section. They have a rubber strap for £120 that the description states is "crafted from silicone".

That's got to be wrong ... surely

Can't fault that Paul. Simple, robust, elegant ...

What's not to like? (apart from the wait)

nothing to tempt me either, quite liked the look of the red dial one till I realised the LFC tie up, which I just don't get. There isn't much to get tbh. If it's like any other football club tie-ups, Spurs-IWC, Man U-TAG etc, the brand will get coverage on the official website, stadium hoardings, m...

The lawsuit against La Californienne makes complete sense now

but I'd want sufficient WR on a daily. Spend time at greater than 30m underwater daily? No, but I do shower or swim with my watch on, so a watch rated at 30m that only qualifies as splash resistant probably won't cut the mustard. The topic has been covered a few times before, but manufacturers WR r...

Yeh, I was speaking from my experience of the Alpina which had a lug-lug of 42-43mm iirc. Thought Panerais also had short L-L lengths, but I jumped the gun. Having searched for the lug-lug on the Due, I can't see the size being an issue at 45.5mm. The blue is a lovely watch, but I'd want sufficient ...

Opted for the C60 bi-co today

I didn't think they came with useable WR? 30m IIRC

On top of that, I reckon that will wear very small. The 38mm Alpina diver I owned with a similar case shape wore quite a bit smaller than a 38mm C60.

Now a 40mm Panerai, yes! And they come with 300m WR
