Re: Back on my feet, more or less

No hurry John. I don't know why they keep going back. I get about 50 emails a day and havn't noticed anything in my spam folder either. I'll be here.

Personally I find this very off putting.
Never noticed it till you brought it up, so I guess it doesn't bother me at all. Did anyone else notice or care?

Re: My C3, a year on.

It looks like it is serving you well. If you need to spruce it up a bit, just add a new bracelet or strap and do a little polishing and it might look like new. Thanks for the update and photos.

Re: The New Brochure

If the move to Swiss made improves the overall Quality, fit and finish, then I still see this as good value when compared to other completely Swiss made watches. That's right Kip, 'if' being the operative word. I'm hoping CW Swiss Made owners will come forward and convince me otherwise. As soon as ...

Re: The New Brochure

I agree if you compare to the old prices and quality. If the move to Swiss made improves the overall Quality, fit and finish, then I still see this as good value when compared to other completely Swiss made watches.

My reservation is in for #13 with Wera. Don't know if the pre order and release date is the same for the BRG as the rest of the C7 line. I am presuming it is.
Any Idea's how much more the C7 LE will be Kip?
300 BP is what I am told for the LE, with a release date early 09.

Re: New Pocket watch cabinet

Very nice collection Kip! Why the interest in pocket watches? The interest seems to stem from my grandfather and also my uncle. My grandfather worked for the Canadian National Railway for 52 years. He presented me with his railroad watch for my 12th birthday. It has been a personal treasure since t...
