Christopher Ward Future Watches
The C1 (Classy small second quartz) should be around £165
The C6 or Kingfisher (Diver) should be around £185
Gold C4 concepts are in the works.
He will consider my idea of adding tags (like Rolex's COSC red tag or Steinhart's brand name tag.)

So far only a T-Shirt, but I'm a bit short of ideas at the moment. If you would like that design on another CafePress object, write a comment and I'll see what I can do.
