Well it appears that we haven't had one of these guessing games for a while so...
I've made a rather spontaneous purchase and, based on the fact that I've posted here, you can deduce that it's a CW, but what is it?

Nope
...albeit I was seriously tempted by both the Matisse and Coral that Downer had for sale.
However, I applied his own very rules such that I didn't buy either of them.
Besides I already have a W8 Matisse (Diamond) for the GF.

So, we're still at a CW Chronograph!

One of @Laird's C70s, possibly the DBR1 (non COSC). He posted a 'come and get me' yesterday? - scratch that; you've got the COSC version so why would you want a regular one.

On the other hand a C70 Monte Carlo from somewhere, might be a proposition;-

Yay!! Totally top notch Nigel. :clap: :clap:

Looking at it carefully, it seems to be styled with more in kind with the C40 Speedhawk, than the C70 GP Series.

Just a thought. :-k :-k
