Such a great looking watch!! Normally I like smaller sized watches. Both sizes look great on smaller as well as bigger wrists. Personally - 18cm/7 1/8"- I think I would go for the bigger watch. I do like date windows so that plays a role also. Love that icey blue that will probably the one for...

....can't decide between blue and black any suggestions? Buying without the "tactile experience" is always a bit tricky but I don't think you will be disappointed in the CW's "feel." I like blue which is a bit more playful but black is a bit more versatile. I actually prefer the...

There's a decent amount of ripping on Christopher Ward for the logo and brand name alone. Among other frivolous reasons such as, "I would never spend real money on a CW". Keep in mind, I've noticed these types of watch articles and their comment sections tend to attract some of the faux-e...

Well as a good CW fanboi I did my bit and voted for the CW. Not a massive fan of either but the CW shaded my vote. It actually looks nice on the wrist I think.

I actually think it is kind of cute but I have no need for an hourly chime watch, what's it called, "rattrapante" I believe…… A rattrapante is a double chronograph. Like a normal chronograph but it has two seconds hands. You stop one and the other keeps going, then when you release the st...

.....these days 38 hours doesn't cut it, sorry..... I always wonder what the current obsession with power reserve is all about. I see it everywhere on watch forums. Certainly for a daily wearer everything > 24h is already overkill to slap it on in the AM after having taken it off before bed. And if...

For your wrist 38mm would be perfect but 40mm would be good too. IMHO of course. My wrists are a bit wider at 7 1/8" so 40mm would be my choice.
CW quality is great. I second getting a bracelet. CW bracelets are fab. Problem is ... what bracelet? CW seem to make 2 different kinds now LOL!

This is actually funny if you read it to yourself in a promo-like voice in your head. Well that it what happened to me anyway when I read it, it "sounded" like some sort of promotion for a trip to a tourist resort, a cure-all-for-all-ailments, or some sort of magical household appliance th...

It's not just a service innit. It's not a running watch sent in for some fresh oil and a demagnesation. It's a broken watch sent in for repair. UKP 550 doesn't sound unreasonable A repair, in isolation, should always be cheaper than a service, as a watch service requires a full strip down of each a...

"It was the chrono that wasn't running. " I got that. It's a broken watch. It needs fixing not just servicing. If I bring my car to the garage for an oil change and a tyre rotation I pay x. If I also need new ball joints and a hole in the exhaust welded I may have to pay 2 or 3x. You may n...

This watch isn't for telling time though. It's for "hey look what I've got! And it chimes on the hour!"

I’ve never made a comment on this but I can’t be the only one who thinks this is hideous, these real life pics only conform this I actually think it is kind of cute but I have no need for an hourly chime watch, what's it called, "rattrapante" I believe, and I like a watch to be LEGIBLE! S...

I like the white dial best. I would pick the 40mm. My wrist is 18cm/7.125"
42mm is doable but I prefer a slightly smaller watch on any watch that is not a Speedy
