Christopher Ward C7 Rapide....
Discussion
Just released on the website. Is anyone else here thinking of getting one of these lads?
I have to say following some of the previews I'm a little disappointed that the black face model didn't come with a red second pointer, but still a great looking watch for the money.
Kind of like a Speedmaster, but actually within my budget.
PS - if anyone is interested there's a 5% discount on orders before Sept 12th. Have a sniff around the CW forums - it's easy enough to find.

Concur with the thought about being a little disappointed with the finished article.
The development drawing all the way through had a brown faced model with a perforated brown leather strap, but that has not been included in the finished model line up. Although there will be a 100 piece limited edition British Racing Green version.
Also, that they have decided to go with a quartz movement instead of the automatic movement which they now have access to, but in conclusion, like you said - it is a lot of watch for not a lot of money, but at the moment I won't be getting one straight away.

It looks really like the TAG Carrera that I want...

I can't find it. I found the discounts for the C2 and C8, but not the C7. Is it there?Edited by mulletmark on Tuesday 2nd September 12:28
