I have contacted CW and have been advised that if I could get at least 50 people wanting one they would try to do a "Bootneck" watch back with the "Globe and laurel" on it.

Here is Mikes email response to me.
Hello Malcolm,
I hope this finds you well.
And yes, I can confirm we will be releasing a watch devoted to the Royal Marines in 2020.
At present, it’s not likely to be until late spring but the new military range has been so successful (and it is still on preorder!) that you can be assured I am pushing very hard for as early a release as possible.
Hope that helps you with your decision making.
Best
Mike

The Black dial Dartmouth is on the CW now.
Re: Introducing the C65 Military Range - Dartmouth / Sandhurst / Cranwell
Black Dartmouth available already? My understanding was that we would need to wait until March?
No matter, it’s all good. I might just have to drop one in my basket...

Re: Introducing the C65 Military Range - Dartmouth / Sandhurst / Cranwell
Great. I was just thinking about collecting all the "military trilogy" and also add a blue watch along the way. Now I have to re-assess that plan because I am unsure which Dartmouth to get. I feel the black one (with the faux patina?) would go better with the other two.

Hi there Rambo jambo (bet your op'os don't know that's your handle on here ) I have also looked at the Bremont....but don't really like it, however the discount is not to be sniffed at (shame it's not for me) I look forward to seeing/hearing about an RM watch from CW and my palms are itching to a possible buy if it's decent and could stand the Endurance courserambothejambo wrote: ↑Tue Feb 04, 2020 10:00 pmAnother ex bootie here , count me in as one of the fifty you require.
