Your disagreement with the OP is clear, but for the sake of accuracy it's actually a layer of blue sapphire and not plastic.

Re: January 2024 Sale
I keep looking at that blue C60 at 30% off. I kept doing the same, and had it in my cart several times before finally pulling the trigger today. After viewing some videos of the watch I decided I couldn't pass on picking it up. The shade of blue used in the dial and bezel are near perfection to my ...

Re: January 2024 Sale
No one wants the thick C60 chronograph ? At first I was very taken with its design, but there are two issues which have prevented me from pulling the trigger. I have a big wrist at 8.25" and like larger watches, but after seeing several side shots of how high it sits on the wrist it's just too...

I find her content so much more enjoyable since she stopped her earlier drinking on camera rants when known as The Watch Gringa, I couldn't tolerate her then.

Re: Mike Pearson is CW's new American Brand Director
Congrats to Mike Pearson! I've seen him on several watch forum streams while he was representing Zodiac and he's an enthusiastic watch aficionado and quite an engaging chap. I expect great things from him as the new American Brand Director for CW.

Re: Tidlos Watches
They previously sold direct on their website as well as at some retailers so their regular pricing was significantly higher. I also don't see any of their rubber straps on their site, all of the Marin models are currently shown on bracelet.

Re: COSC: What Does It Mean?
Technically speaking the COSC rating is made to the movement before it's cased, however if the encased movement is significantly outside the COSC spec it will often be addressed with a regulation by the manufacturer. I'd suggest contacting CW about it and see how they'd like to handle it. I expect t...

Re: A new Tropical Trident tomorrow?
Disappointed it's only available in 40mm, if they had it in 42mm I'd have been tempted by that reef blue.

Re: Currency transfer

The only fees I've encountered are currency conversion fees either from PayPal (which are displayed during the checkout process) or ...
