Re: New release Dune GMT

Its good to see CW have gone some way to colour code the first part of the GMT hand with the dial, I was suprised they never done this with the white, blue, and green versions of the C63 GMT, I think this would be an improvement to what is already a near perfect watch, I understand part of it is to ...

Re: Ward Hoard

If I remember correctly, he had the watches delivered on the Wednsday, and he paid me on the Friday, so it was quick.

Re: Ward Hoard

I have sold 2 watches to him, he was very easy to deal with, reasonable with prices and prompt with payment once he had taken delivery and inspected the watches, i would not hesitate to deal with him again.

Re: Torn... Monta/Formex

I have just bought the Leggera version of the Essence, I am very happy with it, customer service seems excellent, the watch is fantastic, I only have 2 CWs to compare it to do in so I'm no expert, but it's put my MK 2 C60 away for a long time, The C8 PR still gets worn on weekends though, I would st...

Re: CheapestNATOstraps.com

Thanks for your comments, you are correct about the clue in the name, although patience was not my problem it was just not being informed, If they had told me it was out of stock and i would have to wait 6 or 8 weeks that would not have been a problem, its a shame because i was looking forward to se...

Hi all, just wondered if any of you out there have purchased from CheapestNatostraps before, I placed an order for 3 leather straps on the 6th of April, I was attracted by the prices plus they offer some with QR and XS sizes, I had an email confirmation on the same day saying they would be dispatche...

Re: C60 Trident 3 GMT Movement

The owners handbook does not mention the ETA Movement, it states the Sellita, even when the website still claims its an ETA, I did point this out to CW a few months ago but they have not altered it, a minor thing for most, but I think it's quite poor that they cannot get this right.

Re: 38mm C60 GMT

Thanks Lavaine, I agree, I know it makes little difference to the watch, but I really think the watch should come with the movement that is clearly stated on there website, looking between the 42 mms and the 38 mms there is no mention at all of two different movements being possible, I realize this ...

Re: 38mm C60 GMT

I agree with all that you have said, I just think it should be made clear and advertised correctly, which as you mention it is not at the moment, I am not sure if I will keep or return as yet, it just gives me a bad feeling and no confidence in the brand, if it had been advertised as one of the othe...

Re: 38mm C60 GMT

I've only just started with my interest in watches, so it may seem daft but I wanted a watch with an ETA movement because I have read that they will become increasingly difficult to get hold of, I realize it matters little where the watch is concerned, but it is not a good indicator for me for Cw in...

38mm C60 GMT

Just received my 38mm C60 GMT, On CWs website it states that this size has the ETA 2893-2 movement, and the 42mm has the Selita SW300, however the instruction booklet that came with the watch says that both sizes have the Selita SW300, I have sent an email to customer services at CW asking them to c...

Re: C8 POWER RESERVE

Yes I think your right, but does the gap in quality justify the massive price difference? I don't know the answer to that one, I am over thinking it I think, I need to get out and have a look at some these watches in the flesh rather than keep looking at them online, the more I look the more I find ...

Re: C8 POWER RESERVE

Thanks to all for your thoughts knowledge and advice, that's really nice on the leather strap with red stitching, I did wonder about the size, I do have a small wrist, I think my C60 at 43mms looks and wears ok though, will probably purchase soon, my problems now arise from the fact that the more I ...
