A little while ago there was a shit-stirring poster here who tried to write off Christopher Ward as a fancy version of an AliExpress homage brand. Now, I'm not saying this watch is perfect or anything, but I seriously don't understand how someone could say this about the company now that they've released this, the Twelve, and the Bel Canto. I have some serious respect for CW and the way they've evolved from micro to independent. I think we're going to see a lot of companies make that leap (Baltic and Formex I think are both outgrowing the microbrand label) and CW is showing how it's done.

So you haven't seen the Sugees

I can't tell the time!

Seems pricey compared to what I remember the old moonglow being (And turns out they’ve got a new moonglow too which I didn’t realise)

I want to see the aventurine in person. But it’s pretty nice.

Just The Moonphase

So what we end up with is a watch that can't be set accurately but possibly twice a month, cannot be read accurately, day or night, and is a knock on at least 3 others. Someone once said CW is like Swatch+. The Sugee is a better deal. $189

Between this and the dinger CW's finally putting out some designs I like - thanks for posting, OP

Their moon looks really too simple for the price honestly. Compared to this one anyway.

[–] dilldoeorg@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

my issues with moon phase is that it looks like the moon is passing over a butt. looks like someone is mooning the moon, lol

What’s the price on this I really like CW moonphases could someone loan me one to try out for a decade and then forget you lent it to me

People act like illiterate children like you can’t tell time without indices. You can tell time knowing where 12 and 6 are, unless if you had a stroke.

OK now I am finally interested in CW as a brand. That dial is in my opinion, better executed than any other Aventurine dial I have seen, including Lange's limited edition two-hander, which was one of my favourite dials up until now. Now just have to figure out to get one!
