Looks lovely - but crazy price over the standard offering.
Agreed. The specific features to make it more like the original take it to another level, but the price jump is a bit ambitious.

A few changes. The version I have from a few years back has a sapphire crystal, but this new batch has mineral glass. Closer to the original, but I prefer sapphire. The new batch have a Ronda rather than an ETA movement. I couldn't find details on which Ronda but it may not have the redundant day/date function.
Hard to justify the price increase if the components are not as good,Originally Posted by gerrudd
Mineral to sapphire, ETA to Ronda have not been done for authenticity sakes have they?
I love a CWC but it’s proving hard to buy a new one at the moment.
I hadn’t spotted those subtle changes.
I wonder if the movement changes are due to ETA supply issues.
I find mineral is less reflective than sapphire, and maybe it is closer to the original, but there’s no denying which is the superior material.
Agreed. With the exception of a GS with tritium dial, which was a custom order, I think used is the always the way to go with CWC
Almost certainly true. The only think they have that is tempting is the custom automatic diver https://www.cwcwatch.com/collections...ver-auto-diver
I like the dial and handset, but not enough to pay that money.
