I'm just hoping it doesn't carry an "Omega" price tag!
I wait the price
I bet it is more expensive than an original (£2500+)
Yes the price will be the most decisive feature I suspect. I reckon around £1500.
42mm case now, which is a shame, but it will be prohibitively expensive anyway. I reckon they'll try for £3k on this one.
I’ll guess somewhere in the middle, £2250. Certainly more like it though.

But, 39/40mm, hand wind and 13mm thick would be better!

Going to put my guess at £1500
Loving this. Shame it isn’t 38-40. Hoping the price isn’t prohibitive. Sellita movement?

If you don't want to pay the high price tag, you could always try the cheap version from Baltany for a fraction of the price....I have four of their pieces and they are well made for the price point.
Not on the CWC level at all but if you wanted a taster so to speak....

100M water resistance is nice, but the 42mm diameter spoils it for me unfortunately.

The Baltany version is 39mm :chuncky:Quote:

Shame about the increase in size but I suspect will likely be fine on the wrist. I wear my 42mm aquaterra on NATO most of the time and looks great even on my small wrist.
Sadly I'm still selling rather than buying, including my original version, but if I was a buyer and not owning an original one I'd be tempted to try this as long as price isn't silly.
Although sapphire is a shame as acrylic on a watch like this always gives a much nicer look imo.
I'm predicting £2,499
15mm thick too! Not to mention 49 lug-to-lug. That'll be a no from me.

I was going to post the same. I’d be sorely tempted if I had the coin to spare.Quote:

Negatives for me, auto instead of manual but I guess more mainstream popular for anything that isn't a moon watch, sapphire in place of acrylic, but again same thing tbh. Size and thickness but I suspect it'll look amazing on the wrist anyway.
I certainly won't be buying(can't see me ever buying another watch at this point) but I think they've got this spot on tbh.
Makes the Hamilton equivalents look like particularly good value.
Good point, not keen on the overdone faux like which they made look more lume also looks more radium than tritium. That aside though also a great watch and available at near half the price.Quote:

The Hamilton is too faux for me, aesthetically I prefer the CWC by a long way.

This is a good shot. I am excited to see the white dial, too.Quote:

Price is not rediculous. For me, automatic is a plus.
Had convinced myself that I didn't need any more watches, but this is tempting...
Have to admit, I am with you.Quote:
