    Is this CWC's worst idea yet?

    SBS diver minus day/date but with skull and crossbones in luminous green covering most of dial.

    https://www.cwcwatch.com/products/cwc-e9-sf300-qs120

    I love CWC for a number of their models including 'heritage' reissues but I do despair ..

    It’s aimed at the Submarine boys.
    Traditionally they fly a skull and crossbones after a successful kill.

    Yes, I read the marketing blurb - but what has that to do with producing a watch with a huge luminous skull and crossbones on the dial?

    The only boys who are likely to be excited about these are the 13 and 14 year olds who may already be saving up their pocket money for one.

    I thought that was just the on-board chefs?

    Oh wow, double whammy of horrid CWC this morning. Looks like it was designed by kids. I don't care if it's symbolic, it's horrible!

    Yes, no, maybe. Can’t decide if this or the white dial release is worse!

    I'm the happy owner of two CWC's, but I won't be adding this to my collection LOL.

    Is that "no, it isn't CWC's worst idea yet"?

    Or is that "no, argh, my eyes, take it away"?

    I think we know, but just asking for a friend...

    That just spoils a very good looking watch.

    I am on Silvermans mailing list and they sent me one yesterday, so without further a do I had a browse at the RAN Clearance diver watch, but you can only buy it if you are a member of the aforementioned service and the buyer is required to produce there mil id card and or other proof of id.
