Re: Six Nations 2024

You get to see different skills when the play is not dominated by overwhelming physical power. I wouldn’t rate my chances of stopping Sisilia Tuipulotu even in my playing days. She’s a force of nature! :shock: Indeed, she is! But, at least for the time being, she's more the exception to the rule. M...

Re: Six Nations 2024

I watched some of the Wales v Scotland women's match yesterday. Scotland won by 2, but really they deserved more. If the Wales #10 had slotted that late conversion for a draw, it would have been unjust to Scotland. The Scottish #13, Orr, is an exceptional runner. Why the Welsh #9 kicked the ball out...

Re: Incoming…

Looks great, Neil. What material is used on the underside, i.e. the part in contact with the skin? Is it leather or rubber - or, indeed, rubber-coated leather - or nylon, etc?

Re: moonphase and moonglow comparisons

Just to clarify, by "c1 malvern moonphase", do you mean the C1 Grand Malvern Moonphase launched in August 2017, or the C1 Moonphase launched in October 2023?

To help the comparisons, perhaps you could post pictures of the three models you are considering?

Re: Upgraded C1 Moonglow

I think this looks great. I've handled one too, and it really is lovely. The bracelet, in particular, is a great advancement. However, for the additional premium involved, I don't think I will rush to upgrade my Mk1 Moonglow, as I have other priorities at present. But if, in the future, a Mk2 appear...

I don't remember Will being on the Design Team. ;)

To be fair, we did consult him a few times regarding what was feasible.
