Del 4,463 Posted February 28, 2017 Couldn't resist buying this Christopher Ward Typhoon C1000 FGR4 Cockpit Edition when the price was reduced by 50%. It just arrived and I'm absolutely over the moon with it! I feel like I robbed somebody - Swiss Made watch with ceramic/titanium case, 7750 movement, SuperLuminova, sapphire, etc.... all for just over £500. Some quick iPhone shots in the sun...

greg_r 81 Posted February 28, 2017 From the title I was expecting this post to say "Severe damage estimated at over 35p caused" Nice watch mate, I really must buy myself a CW one of these days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

splke 4,383 Posted February 28, 2017 worth the trade off for the longy Del ? I think it looks chuffing ace By the way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,463 Posted February 28, 2017 worth the trade off for the longy Del ? I think it looks chuffing ace By the way Thanks mate. Yes, I believe so at the price I paid. It's a higher spec and something completely different. It has an superb caseback too.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rikracy 1,693 Posted February 28, 2017 That's a bit tasty mate!! Surprised you moved the longines on but fully understand why now! Great watch for a great price buddy! Congrats! PS...let me know when you want to move it on!!! Lol! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MAJ75 922 Posted February 28, 2017 worth the trade off for the longy Del ? I think it looks chuffing ace By the way Thanks mate. Yes, I believe so at the price I paid. It's a higher spec and something completely different. It has an superb caseback too.... It's certainly not a regular event that the case back is the killer picture.... It looks like a super investment mate & as stated it does have the IWC vibe..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Del 4,463 Posted February 28, 2017 @ splke! Thanks chaps. Definitely some IWC Top Gun similarities. I love the Top Gun (had a rep for a bit) but I couldn't possibly justify buying one! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rusky27 1,761 Posted February 28, 2017 (edited) Always good when you get that "wrong change at the shop feeling" enjoy Del! Incidently I saw some typhoons or some sort of fast air over royal Dornoch beach yesterday. It was scorchio too. Edited February 28, 2017 by rusky27 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just couldn't capture the jet in my pic - unlike your pics capturing the typhoon perfectly! Here's a pic I took of a Typhoon at the Scottish Airshow last year - not the best of quality but it was going rather quickly...... Very nice Del :thumbsup: Thanks mate.
