I think it does look better with a more pronounced twin flags at 12. One of the reasons I like the Ombre so much. The finish on the dial make the flags stand out a lot more adding balance.

I read somewhere that the current CWL font is the same as used in the London Underground, I like details like that.
Omega Speedmaster, Bulova Accutron Gemini, Tudor Black Bay Heritage Maroon & Black, C65 Trident Bronze SH21 LE, C65 Trident Black, C65 Trident Diver SH21, C65 Trident Ombre LE, Longines HydroConquest beautiful AF and better than C60 300

Writing "Christopher Ward" on the watch face is polarizing. While others don't mind it, this writing put me off buying the CW. If more watch faces only used the twin flags as per the C7 Rapide models, CW would have got my money!

And I agree with rkovars about the more pronounced twin flags at 12. It's the best CW logo I've seen :thumbup:
