    Excuse the bad pic, but this is my C6 Kingfisher - one of CWs first offerings in quartz, and the first logo I believe. I don't wear it anymore as it's too big and heavy for my liking, but style wise...

    I assumed there might have been a story on the BBC website (and by extension based on history I'd have thought that it would have been communicated on here if there had been one). At the very least...

    This would’ve been great to see and I think most people would definitely have been singing RM’s praises if this had been the case. Sadly not to be though.

    I've always taken it as read that keeping a copy of the certificate of posting would provide enough evidence on that front. If sending an expensive watch I will take a picture of the packaged up...

    I wonder how it works with sales where the RRP of a watch (and any original receipt if you have for it) is over £2500, but it's been sold at a price lower than that (i.e. on SC or eBay). The sender...

    Completely agree on all of this.

    As for the green GMT hand, they're trying to market it as something to do with a 'connection to the land' or some other guff...I glazed over by that point of...

    Very uninspiring Tudor releases this year, and when did "Waterproofness" become a word?

    Great comparison ACG. Admittedly I've only ever seen it in pics, but the dial on the 300 has always seemed very small (emphasised more by the box crystal I think). Interesting that the 200T looks to...

    With the bracelet/rubber strap flare as it comes away from the case, I'm guessing it will wear more like a 20mm though. I'd be interested in seeing the weight listed too (and a comparison to the...

    It makes my teeth ache just thinking about that! 😂

    I've now bought my wife a dremel (long story) under the condition I can use it for any watch strap-related jobs that need doing.
