CW January ‘21 Sale
Re: CW January ‘21 Sale
Yeah, I'll shoot them an email (might be sold by the time they see it though). I wish it had been 1000m. That would have made the He valve seem a bit more useful. Still, a lovely watch.

Re: CW January ‘21 Sale
I see ebay has another £1 per sale offer on, out come another load of sale watches.
I think these two might be a bit hopeful. Anyone bold enough to buy it now and then cancel after the £1 offer ends

Thanks! Actually it's a brand new one, not used or refurb, was $579. I love it, it's awesome. I took a couple links out and it fits great.Mike2795647 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 06, 2021 5:50 pmCongrats, enjoy it when it arrives. If it was the one I saw at about £350 ish on a bracelet then that’s a superb deal for a great watch

Re: CW January ‘21 Sale
You may remember from a few pages back that a kind soul on the forum helped me get a C8 Power Reserve after I missed out in the sale. Well, it has now arrived! And here it is:
And the kind soul was Guy (Bahnstormer_vRS) was was willing to sell me his. It's in absolutely pristine condition and I love it! Thank you Guy!
I've admired this model since it was launched several years ago, but dithered because I thought it might be too large and because it doesn't have a steel bracelet option. I get an allergic reaction to leather, so tend to favour bracelets, but the rubber-backed Hirsch performance straps are a "get out of jail card" for me and I've now put one of those (the "James") on it. I also got a C65 SH21 just over a year ago, thinking that would tick the "SH21 Power Reserve" box and with a smaller case and steel bracelet. And it did. But no-one told my brain that you can't have more than one SH21 Power Reserve watch, so here we are! My brain justifies the difference as one being an automatic and the other being handwound!
Many thanks again to Guy. You're a star.

Been wearing mine most days since getting it (other sale watches permitting) and it's holding a solid -2 secs p/d consistently, even when I let the power reserve go down to 2 days
For SH21, I think the more the merrier... I'm also now thinking along the SH21 automatic route to complement the hand wound... but that's later, too many watches bought this last few weeks, so want to enjoy them first.
Thanks to Guy for his kind gesture, there's a lot of that around both here and on CWE, as I'm finding

Re: CW January ‘21 Sale
A power reserve is a very useful complication isn't it. The watch looks super in both the steel and the black case. Just a matter of taste.
Re: CW January ‘21 Sale
And in another act of generosity... Kev, a lovely chap from over on the CWE(FB) has very kindly sold me a watch he acquired recently from another member, which very much complements two watches I also recently bought... the C65 Black Gold and C65 316L LE (yellow)
It's this one... a C65 Blue Bronze prototype (Serial 0000)... very much looking forward to having this trio of C65 hand wind Tridents together in the collection, as I was missing a blue face and indeed a bronze watch
Photos from Kev (thanks)... mine to follow when it arrives...

I too thought about acquiring an C65 SH21 - a blue beauty - but finally decided against as dial layouts are very similar, while the C8 ticks all the boxes for me being bigger and more legible all round. Plus, the C8 multi layer dial really is glorious.

Re: CW January ‘21 Sale
It’s odd that the order “tracking” page doesn’t actually track orders at all. That’s great that it was shipped, but where is the tracking number? lol

Usually the Tracking number, for DPD / DHL, is on the dispatched email sent to you by CW (assuming you've received one).Robotaz wrote:It’s odd that the order “tracking” page doesn’t actually track orders at all. That’s great that it was shipped, but where is the tracking number? lol

Re: CW January ‘21 Sale
Neither of the watches I bought had a tracking email sent. Both got order confirmation emails and one got a “how to track your order” email. No tracking numbers.Bahnstormer_vRS wrote:Usually the Tracking number, for DPD / DHL, is on the dispatched email sent to you by CW (assuming you've received one).Robotaz wrote:It’s odd that the order “tracking” page doesn’t actually track orders at all.

If I was very busy and needed to know when to be home it would be a big hassle, but fortunately right now I’m always home for the most part.
Re: CW January ‘21 Sale
The links haven't always worked for orders from the recent sales. Only the two straps and the recent C65 316L order worked for me. In addition, the links won't go live until DPD/DHL have actually picked it up and scanned it at their depot. The dood news is that they are all turning up okBahnstormer_vRS wrote: ↑Sat Jan 23, 2021 6:09 pmUsually the Tracking number, for DPD / DHL, is on the dispatched email sent to you by CW (assuming you've received one).Robotaz wrote:It’s odd that the order “tracking” page doesn’t actually track orders at all.
