Are OcUK affiliated with CW? Members here are obsessed with this brand.

I like some of the watches they produce. But you're right, there does seem to be a pretty big following on here (although you can say the same for various watch forums).
 
finally got through the whole thread. Some lovely watches, yeah there are a lot of CW watches, probably because he is london based I guess the bang for buck we get here is just a touch more than getting an "imported" watch from overseas? (not sure how loose u can use the word imported but here goes lol) Or maybe because he's british he caters to our taste more.

Still so undecided, CW, Skagen, break the bank and go for a 1k hamilton i really dont know. arrrghh the choices !! buying a lottery ticket this week though.
 
My new purchase... loving it - solar powered, radio controlled, black ion-plated. (Though sceptical how durable the coating is going to be!)

Tissot T-Tempo (Linky). I'm really not a fan of watches with buttons or dials all over them, prefer something quite plain and simple. First one I saw that I liked was a Roamer Stingray III (Linky) but it's not avaliable outside of Switzerland, so after a bit more searching I found the Tissot which I actually prefer.
 
The day I retired which is almost 4 years ago, I took a 2lb hammer and smashed my watch to smithereens & havent worn one since.

It was a cheap one mind. :D

Yeah I wanted the white one at first but seen the black face in store and preferred it for some reason or other. Both very nice imo though. I'm like you I also prefer the face to be simple without dials etc.

Finally got it today, absolutely love it although i wouldnt personally spend £300+ on a Casio but seeing as the missus bought me it...i cant complain.

Lovely watch with lovely turquoise colour to it, thought the strap was rubber but seems to be of a resin type material.

But really liking the colours and styling of the watch.

Excuse the crapiness of the photo, my Blackberry doesnt take very good pics:p

Do you have any better pictures of that watch? Really quite tempted by it! Is it solar powered?
 
Nice watch GSXRMovistar, I like the way it looks especially when you can see the luminescent hands an numbers.
 
Not owned a watch since i was a teen, but the power of this thread has pursuaded me to give it another go. Should be delivered tomorrow.

Yep solar powered and radio controlled as well so the time is always spot on...tbh mate pics do not do it justice...i saw it on the watchshop website a few weeks ago and mentioned to the missus that i like the look of it...its a beautiful watch.

If you get it, get it from the watchshop as they give you 30 days to return it if you arent happy...mind you if you scratch it or scuff it then they wont take it back for obv reasons.

Its on sale at the watchshop, £337 i think...down from £450 originally.

Edit: Interestingly its no longer available on the watchshop site...strange :confused:
