Show us your Senraw watches

[TaketheCannoli]

Most of us have seen the development of Karl's (Senraw) watch business via the ongoing Sales Corner post. It's fair to say Karl never had any intention of ending up where he is now and I'm blown away how it went from putting a few parts together on one watch to an operating online business so quickly. I'm in awe of what he's achieved.

When Karl signposted us to the website last week I could no longer resist and ordered a Clearance Diver Grey. The price of £199 inclusive of delivery seemed very reasonable.

I ordered at the weekend, received notification of dispatch yesterday (Monday) and the watch landed today (Tuesday).

The first thing I couldn't help noticing was the size of the massive box and then inside, loads of protective packing looking after the watch box. An excellent start.

The Senraw / Broad Arrow branded watch box is great and unlike any I've seen before. The paper binding around the box is a lovely touch indeed. Clearly a hell of a lot of thought has gone into the branding and boxing which I love. Inside sees foam inserts holding the watch steady.

Now onto the watch. Here's the spec:

Watch

• Weight : 67 grams (Watch head only, excluding strap)
• Dial : Matt black, no date
• Hands : Polished Sword Hands
• Crystal : Flat Sapphire

Case

• Material : 316L stainless steel

• Water Resistance : 200 meters
• Diameter 39.5mm, 43.5mm including the crown

• 13mm thickness from the the centre of the flat sapphire crystal to the centre of the case-back

The dial is lovely and the Broad Arrow branding is, for me, perfect and much better than a written word. The plots are coloured just about right for the style and the hands match perfectly. The bezel action is firm and crisp with no play either way. The crown action is spot-on and it's great not having the ghost date position.

All-in-all it's a great little watch and without question is worth the cost. The service Karl provided was as good as it gets too.

I'm very happy and hope all those that bought these are too. It would be great if you could share your views, experiences and photos here please.
