CW Follow-Up and New Item on Wishlist
The above is a Titoni that is on my wishlist, but I may go for a less Swarovski crystally one.
The Christopher Ward C5 I reviewed is still working well and I'm happy with my purchase.

Beware of Claude Valentini wristwatches - they're rubbish. Click here for details.

I've found my Tissot! My PR50 was stuck down a sofa and it doesn't look like it's in good shape.

Christopher Ward C5 Malvern Automatic C5SSS
The C5 Malvern is the best watch I have ever owned. It is elegant, unknown (as a brand) and good value for money. It's a heavy, well-weighted watch and could easily sell like hot-cakes for £600 with a better box.
The clasp is well-made and sturdy:
It comes with a lot of "nice touches:"
Cleaning Cloth
Good Box
Velvet-like pillow thing
Hand signed and addressed note from Chris himself
and
A very tempting catalogue
It has a reliable ETA 2824-2 gold-plated Swiss automatic movement:
It has a useful date display among other things as shown in the following image:
Display case back:
And If you don't like boring old stainless steel, it's also available in these different colour-combos:
If you have a bit of money burning a hole in your pocket, go and buy one today - I guarantee you wont be disappointed.
