Great review - thanks! I remain dangerously tempted by the blackout version

I see Brosnan and think of Mamma Mia I'm afraid and his attempts at singing.

i can never unsee, or unhear that. Thank you very much for bring it back into my conscious mind.

CWE Trident for another hard day’s WFH

That is absolutely stunning. I don't think I'd seen the black rotor before. Congratulations!

The case is a gunmetal DLC finish (like the abyss), with a polished bezel and the white indices / lume (like a normal C60). So it seems to be a hybrid of an abyss and normal C60. It reminds me a bit of my Mk2 titanium V2 C60, in terms of the contrast and readability. I wonder whether CW were lookin...

Is the main difference the handset? I have seen CW watches like this, but with the teardrop hands that I’m not particularly fond of.

Patience and perseverance pays!

I enjoy buying and selling on eBay. Never had a bad experience as a seller and only ever had in issue as a buyer.

PayPal’s pay after 14 days option work brilliantly for buyer peace of mind, and in this case eBay refunded me directly when the seller stopped communicating.

Saw a C65 on a gentleman in specsavers last week.

We should have some sort of special handshake, if we were allowed to shake hands

Hi,

Thanks for the quick response.

I am wearing it fairly loose tbh, but it’s still leaving a mark (albeit much less pronounced than this time last week).

Oh, and thank you for the friendly welcome!

Having been the proud ownder of a C60 GMT 600 on a hybrid for three weeks, I can confirm that the strap gets more comfortable as you wear it. I'm not sure if it's the rubber or my skin that's being broken in! My one comment is that the embossed two flags logo is the single most uncomfortable part of...
