    British brand ,swiss watch,superb finishing, sensible if not decent price,great dimensions,handsome watch. Every time i see one on a channel without fail i'll say "that's a good looking watch" , definitely something to "seriously" consider.

    I own 3 MkII and 1 MkIII C60’s in different guises. Huge following in UK and becoming big around the world. For the price they are unbeatable. The quality is up there with the big names with 3 or 4 times the price. All the CW models are stunning.

    CW are way pass the microbrand stage, their a boutique brand
    they're watches punching way above their pricing point standing head to head with oris aquis as far as build quality and higher specs with the 600m water resistant and the quick release bracelet at about half the price not to talk about their 5 year's warranty

    Very nice . Way better quality than Certina, Hamilton or Tissot. On a par with Oris for less money. They can’t be described as a micro brand as they have retail shops and constantly stock the range. Micro brands piss me off because anytime you want to buy one they are all sold out.
    Micro brands suffer from small mindedness and low aspirations as they never ever produce enough to meet demand. Most are overpriced and I wonder after a year of two if you need say a new bezel will they have the parts. I doubt it.

    Thanks for the review Chris, CW are giving a lot of the bigger brands a run for their money.. Especially oris, the SH21 movement that CW bought out 5 years ago is a cosc certified twin barrel 120 HR power reserve in house movement.... that doesn't suffer with a jumping minute hand....

    Why do people insist on calling CW a micro brand. Micro brands typically have a limited range and don’t carry stock. They also nearly always under produce and never meet demand. CW have a large range and always in stock. They are a small watch maker NOT a micro brand.

    I like CW, have a trident elite 1000, upon purchase they were kind enough to arrange the production number matching my birthday. The only down side to me is that titanium gets scratches easier, can't wear it as carefree as some other alternatives in the collection.

    The CW logo on the side is done for a reason.
    It's because you can apply your own logo at 12 for series of custom watches. (available on their website)
    It is almost the same reason for Squale that has 2 logos at 6 and 12.
    Squale at the beginning was designing dive watch cases for other brand.
    So the brand put their logo at 12 and Squale at 6.

    • @skyfallseven365
      @skyfallseven365 3 роки тому +1

      Well that’s def not the reason it’s at 9 because the ghost twin flag logo is at 12. And it’s because it’s a refreshing break of the logo being at 12 like it is on every other dive watch. As said by Christopher ward and other owners in loupe magazine

I have owned a few CW watches (I even purchased Robs white one) the CW makes a good diver but the tribute is cheaper, more easily attainable in the U.S. and dressier.
