Special Edition CWL
I know there are a few Special Edition CWLs out there. The Submarine one, the 35th Engineer Regiment Limited Edition, the Harrier watch for the boys in Crab Fat Gray, Liverpool Pilots, sure I've seen a Royal Corps of Signals one as well, but what others?

Re: Special Edition CWL
^^ Think they've always been in the greater Maidenhead area. London was used on the dials in the early days - in the same way as Bremont use it - even though they are based in Henley.
If you look at a large-scale map, Maidenhead/Henley is virtually London anyway...

Re: Special Edition CWL
Cookham is also the home of the late great artist Stanley Spencer. The village hosts a permanent exhibition of his work in a converted chapel. A little way down from the gallery there was once a small jewellery store and it’s where I first learnt of a local watchmaker called Christopher Ward.Kip wrote:Their first office was in Cookham.Thermexman wrote:

Re: Special Edition CWL
And (Sir) Stanley Spencer's ashes are buried by the footpath through the Church that featured so prominently in his work. Glad to see I am not the only admirer of one of the UK's great artists here! I used to pay a silent homage before I wandered along that stretch of the Thames on my way to Marlow.Richard D wrote:Cookham is also the home of the late great artist Stanley Spencer.
