Re: Which hands for this dial?

I’m really drawn to the gold colored moon you have there, maybe emphasize it with some gold colored dauphine hands? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20231003/51445863c0eca6480bb09d3cb938fe03.jpg Perhaps something ornamental like these? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20231003/7be55f5f1adf73f3d03d36...

Re: “Monk Mode” - limiting social media.

I think it’s just a layover from when internet/smartphone tech was new and seemed to be solving problems, not creating them. So to many, it’s just another problem to be solved. But it’s like trying to use nicotine gum to quit when you’re still smoking packs a day. The apps that people are frustrated...

Re: I was hacked

Personally, I’d disconnect that computer from the internet ASAP and unplug it. I’d pull the hard drive out and never use it again.

Password theft from shared passwords isn’t uncommon, but remote controlling your machine is terrifying and I’d consider that installation compromised.

CW Survey

I just checked my inbox and had one too. I actually enjoyed taking that one.

Ranking attributes was pretty cool and well thought out. Did anyone else put “Swiss Made” last?

Re: The writing on dials

Suppose you pick up a watch you've never worn/seen before, a vintage model maybe, closed caseback, and it's not ticking, how do you know if it's automatic or handwound if it doesn't say it on the dial? I went through this with a family heirloom Longines. You can gently shake it to see if you feel a...

Re: Seaweed sealander coming soon

Not a fan of LE’s, but I think this looks good. Still don’t have a green watch but it’s probably not going to be this one.

Re: I think I'm DONE with Sellita movements

I feel like they definitely need to. Swatch really moved the bar up by making the Powermatic 80 and LJP with the G100.

I feel okay with that lower tier of power reserve from budget movements from Seiko and Citizen, but the SW200 really needs to do better for the cost.

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread

Citizen heard that CW has a new Moonphase incoming and decided to shoot their shot.

Titanium, red, solar, and radio syncing Moonphase? Would love to see one of these in person.

I think I'm DONE with Sellita movements

Is the desire for the LJP G100? Otherwise, I can’t see what they’d switch to.

I keep seeing mentions of Longines, but CW wouldn’t get Longines movements even if they were acquired by Swatch.

Re: The Twelve - New Colours?

I’d assume the JJ04 Moonphase caliber is a bit thicker than the regular SW200. I’m not sure how much extra room the Twelve case would have for that
