Re: CW seconde/seconde/ collaboration

Despite the thought that the watch could be the worst CW I have ever seen I think there are some redeeming features... - Small 's' by the applied logo is a good touch - Applied and print can combine well. - Smaller round indices compared to the standard Aquitaine (maybe just needed to create more di...

Re: CW seconde/seconde/ collaboration

Ideal pairing with a comedy tie.

The art of design is when to stop. On this for me, they didn't.

That being said, I really like the handset changes etc on the other collabs.

Re: Fantasy Football - 2024/25; English Premier League

A decent couple of weeks and then the Salah / Haaland combination plus supporting cast managed to return 108 points last week. As usual (and normally eventually to my detriment), I've tried to not be too template and have included some less popular picks. The continued faith in CW connected Dominic ...

Re: Fantasy Football - 2024/25; English Premier League

First draft picked, may be some changes before the deadline though.

Tougher decisions to be made this season with some higher top player prices meaning a difficult balance across the squad.

Within tolerance of CWs integrity. Pity that it is not only the response of a general CW representative but MF himself. Embarrassing.

Re: The Bargain Hunters Thread

Devon If you are in the UK, it does say that the price quoted of £284.10 INCLUDES the fee to cover the estimated duties and taxes. The price is £237.73 with £48.37 added on. This will cover what is needed. It is just the vat of 20% on the item and delivery. Duty is either zero on minimal (less than...

True, I guess. Probably a 'Summer' watch and September or maybe later would miss that opportunity to get more sales before the sun disappears.

Re: NEW SUPER COMPRESSOR dropping July 11

CW pretty much sticks to the MOQs for a launch. So they probably have 25-50 on hand right now. However, CW has always had tight control on inventory. I do think that they are constantly balancing availability with the economy of scale. They want to keep their prices as low as they can without keepi...

Re: Pairing watches with tattoos

I'm in the camp of it never clashing regardless and even if they did it is you who needs to be happy with the look. Nobody else will likely care, not that there is a clash but that they won't even notice the colour of your watch dial! Items overly matching would trigger me more than items clashing, ...

Re: Celebrate CW's 20th Anniversary - "Back to the Boat"

Just a quick PSA, CW are manipulating the comments section on their 20yr anniversary video on YT. They are deleting anything that is not positive. The positivity of the comments must not have been within their their tolerance... Must be a narrower tolerance than they have when dealing with customer...

Thanks for the earlier boat link. Much fancier than I had imagined. For those who didn't attend there is a virtual tour of the vessel!

Was that the totally impartial ex Watchfinder and now CW special edition Bel Canto owning fan pictured in the first set of pictures?

Looks like the back of his head during the speech. How different does he sound in real life :lol:.

Re: G-Shock GA-2100 Manga editions

They look fun. I was hoping to buy the white one and got the notification email they were released this week.

I kept a check on email but didn't see the release alert message until about 2 hours after launch and they were gone - at least the white anyway and a queue for the blue.

Re: QC Issue with Bezel - Trident 300m

Within their tolerance of honesty and integrity. There have been a number of examples where their first answer is not the correct one, for whatever reason. It is the chance you take when buying a CW unfortunately. Amazing watches and value 95% of the time, the remainder is really frustrating searchi...
