Re: CW weird use of black on white dates on black faced watches
I personally don't mind this at all, as I guess that's what I'm used to, and think it's probably easier to read with the white date wheel, but that's just my opinion :wink: All I can say is, that if you don't like that particular feature, then don't buy the watch!! I agree with this. I have a real ...

Re: Anyone bought anything nice in the Sale yet?
I also bought the C7 Brown with alligator, mine looks and feels so much better than the "alligator look" ordinary strap that came with my C15. I have been looking again at the sales to see what other watches are being sold with alligator straps, it would in my opinion be worth buying a wa...

Re: Anyone bought anything nice in the Sale yet?
Trying to imagin a C3 Corax (£120 NN) with a black Ali strap (£15 sale). Anyone tried the combiation? A bit topical. Paw raised the issue of white date wheels on black dial watches on another post. The white date window may show up a bit on the corax. I've got the ordinary black C3 though and the w...

J&T Windmill Watches
Has anyone heard of these, or even got one? They're silver very traditional old school watches and very delicate looking, probably only for use as dress watches nowadays. Not to my personal taste really, as I lack a velvet smoking jacket and monocle, although I can appreciate the workmanship. I thin...

Re: CW weird use of black on white dates on black faced watches
I remember this being raised ages ago. I'm not all that bothered by it, but having said that it seems to stand out more on some of the models than others. The one i have that I think is slightly ruined by it is the black C3 as it stands out quite a bit, but not enough to put me off it. The C7 brown ...

Re: Watch for young office dweller - C5?
Have you considered the C3? It was my first buy on SS bracelet and I changed to a black strap. Lovely watch for the office or anywhere you have to dress smart. Versatile enough for the smart casual look for going out after a hard week in the office. If you get a black dial you can swap between brown...

Re: Anyone bought anything nice in the Sale yet?
And I'm still waiting (impatiently) for my C7STS, which is somehow still being packed/checked, but has an associated tracking number. I'll just keep hanging on I guess... Give them a call asap Ailurophile. I did after waiting 5 days only to find there was a problem with my credit card and no one bo...

Re: Where did you see a CW Watch
It's true that most people only get a new watch when the old one conks out. Every bloke I know not in my proffession have only one watch. The guys I work with generally have two, one a workwatch for outside stuff and the other usually an omega or tag. I don't know anyone else personally that have se...

Re: Rapide question
May be too late with this bit of encouragement, but I also have just got the brown C7 and it's a very nice watch, my best looking by far. I'd buy if I were you.
