C7SBS-390-BB Bluebird # 0673/1912

Post by MiniMpi »

As a lot of you know, I've wanted a C7 Bluebird since they were released and today I've taken delivery of it :)

This particular Bluebird has a nice little story behind it in that it was the prize in a CW Facebook competition back in April this year. I entered of course, actually many many times !!
Alas I wasn't the winner.
But the forum member I bought this one from was the winner and was already the lucky owner of a Bluebird so hence the sale. I just think fate intervened ;)

I am over the moon, I really love this watch.
I'm very impressed with the quality, look and feel of it.
The bracelet strap adds a nice bit of weight and gives it a very high end look in my opinion.
This is my first bracelet strapped watch.
I normally get a leather strap so this is all new to me. The clasp works great.

Here are the unboxing photos, very quickly taken by my HTC One.
I'll post proper photos at a later stage so please excuse the fingerprints etc.

This one taken today after getting the bracelet strap resized.
Getting used to the weight now and loving it :)

Ferg,

Glad to see you finally got the Bluebird - I agree that the watch works better with the bracelet.

Enjoy.
