Whilst the Jump Hour does absolutely nothing for me on a visual level I understand there are inner complications way above my understanding.

I wish CW well in this competition though.

Thanks

I don't see why the breamont would win its a plain over priced field watch, the cw watch is much more interesting.

I really like the look of that Bremont Solo; simple in design and elegant in execution.

I dont like it enough to spend £2,250 on one though ;)

Can anyone see / tell what the differences between the CR and WH versions are? Looks like the hands on one are WH-ite, but the other is yellow?

It is WH-ite and CR-eam. The two colours will show different lume colours (white=blue, cream=green, I think). The next Solo will have a cream dial and raised silver numerals. Lovely.

While I wish Chris all the best and hope he wins, I actually quite like that Edox. I know it's a mental looking thing with one huge green pusher but why not? It might be a mash up of some other elements but I'll give them some credit for having a go

I know this is an older topic, but I do like the CW. It stands out quite a bit, but with all do respect I'd take the Edox. I'm not a huge fan of the large green push button, but other than that it's a captivating time piece. My vote if it matter would go to the Edox and the CW a close second.
