Re: 2010 Models
Isn't it great to see the development process from this early stage - and to have some kind of input?
Fantastic! Thanks for posting these Kip!

Re: 2010 Models
Great to see something new on the forum for discussion Kip, getting a little tired of the sale bargain threads.
No more Quartz (except when I cannot resist).

Re: 2010 Models
I get the horrible feeling I had better start saving my pocket money, looks like some must have's coming up this year....
Great to see some of the up-coming designs early on and to see some of the feedback. Thanks for the heads-up.

Re: 2010 Models
Not sure yet...everything is too new but it looks like CW is moving back towards the "Classic" looks he should be known for.
C9 and GMT Trident of interest so far.
But just 2 requests, please:
1) Black date wheels on black dials
2) Decorated movements (not just the rotor) if watch has exhibition back, otherwise what's the point!
Yes they will put the price up but not by much

Most definitely....it will make all the difference.

Yep, I'd go with that!!
As for the date wheel......think it depends on the the watch and dial to some degree?!! The date wheel is white on the Trident, which I think would make it more visible and not detract from the look. On other watches, this may not be the case?!!

Re: 2010 Models
1) YES, black on white doesn't make it more visible against a black dial, it just makes it stand out for all the wrong reasons But seriously Guys, when I'm diving I don't suddenly need to know the date, do I? I'd rather have extra lume so I can see how many minutes I've got left.paw3001 wrote: 1) Black date wheels on black dials

2) This could even be a cost option,but I for one would pay the extra for a fully decorated movement,especially on an LE.

Excellent to see the design process and get a chance to provide feedback
Thanks Kip & CW!
Re: 2010 Models
I am so pleased. I've liked CW for a while but I'm a GMT fan so haven't made one mine. Now two come along at once.

Re: 2010 Models
Not sure about that as my Omega Seamaster has a white on black date wheel and it pops out at you. Saying that,I have never felt the need to check the date on a Diver when 120 feet underwaterMonkey wrote: As for the date wheel......think it depends on the the watch and dial to some degree?!!

I see your point I don't 'do' diving, but I can't imagine you'd suddenly be needing to know the date while you were down there, and then thinking 'oh if only the date wheel was white on black' !! lol

I'm struggling to see where the drawings are? Have they been removed?

They have their own topics.
Go up one level and check topics 'Trident', 'Trident GMT', 'C9' and 'RAP AD Astra'.

Help please. Like oragdav I cannot find the pictures for the sneak previews and Richard's guidance didn't help. I couldn't go up a level into topics.
