I'm guessing you mean this article?

At 2k thats just insane IMO
That is a lovely looking watch, but I agree £2k is a hefty price tag.
The more I look at it the more I want one but I can't get past the price...
It's not tritium. Why the T?
Really hate that uneven lume application, looks like a toilet bowl in a public loo.
I like the looks and thought that it might make a good replacement for my summer band-around Borealis Estoril 300, however after seeing the price tag.. not anymore..
The T is strange
The lume (apart from the shine) is pretty similar to my original T dial.
The miss matched hands especially

I really like the old style CWC logo, but I am not sure about the aged lume colour, it looks like they went overboard with it. I would be interested to see what it looks like on the wrist, lume is always difficult to judge on photos.
The numbers 3, 6 and 9 should be white and not the same colour as the lume.
I think the idea is to give it a vintage look.Quote:

I do agree with you, the numbers are not lumed and therefore should be white.Quote:
