It's like Renton or Francis Begbie become a watch reviewer. And it's amazing. Excellent look at this watch.
😆 🤣
Brilliant 😂
This looks so much better than the rendered photos
They almost always do. Love this one.
Hi there! Nice review, love the banter. I previously owned the white-dial c63 Sealander (which I think was the exact same specimen that you reviewed (I believe it came with a card saying 'Zaltek Reviews'). Anyway, I ended up selling that watch because of its poor legibility, both in broad daylight (the hands and indices would disappear) and during low-light conditions (lume was pretty much non-existent).
Now, how would you say this C60 Atoll stacks up to the Sealander in terms of lume and overall legibility? I'm very tempted by this one, but previous experience is holding me back.
Cheers!
Lume is always going to be better on a diver compared to a sports watch, especially with the same brand.
Love hearing a Scottish Watch reviewer, great review and insight, Christopher gives you so much quality for the money and I think embarrasses more expensive brands like oris that you mentioned
I've ordered one in this spec. Already got a couple of black dial watches so wanted something different. Looks brilliant👌 Cheers
You won't be disappointed bud 👍
Cheers Dan, this is Sean in Atlanta. I have only recently found your channel, which I subscribed to, and I am re-watching your video on the Christopher Ward C60 Atoll. I feel the same way about that Watch that you did when you first saw it, and I am wondering if you still feel the same way? I was just about to buy the C 63 Sealander GMT, but this watch looks so devastatingly beautiful to me that I am on the fence and I don’t know what to do. I can’t afford them both, so I rely on expert reviews like yours and wanted to ask you to tell me your thoughts about it now that you have worn it for while. My God, that watch with that dial and bezel takes my breath away!
Thank you so much and I really have enjoyed your channel so far!
Sean
If I had to choose just one, I'd opt for the C63 Sealander GMT (in white, of course 😉)
@@ZaltekReviews Thanks. I would have bet on the other one so I’m glad I asked you!
Very pleased to hear they have now changed to single head screws! Those double headed ones drove me insane! How have you found the sand blasted bezel for scratching? I’m looking at the blue dial one and it’s the only thing I’m a bit worried about. Stunning watches!
You've nothing to worry about, mine is still unmarked.
@@ZaltekReviews good to know. Thank you. Oh and BTW I don’t think there is anything wrong with your face….and you should show it on the videos 😆
What a great channel and a breath of fresh air! I subscribed a while back and have watched this review 2 or 3 times now. Many thanks 🙏
Thank you so much! Cheers 🙏
@@ZaltekReviewsI’ve now bought the Reef Blue edition…..what an amazing watch. The rubber strap isn’t a patch on the bracelet! Many thanks for giving me the confidence to buy this!
So true about having load of watches which don't get worn...I rotate between a Tissot visodate 40mm white dial and a casinoak blue metal.. I love the look of this Atol..I'm very tempted 😍
First time viewer. Man ye can blether some pish (but in a guid way) 😂. Liked yer banter so now a subscriber. Thanks for this review. I was looking at this watch on the their website but no sure if I prefer the Sealander GMT with the orange accents. Both are braw.
Thanks buddy, yep, my wife would agree with you too, I blether some amount of pish! 😆
Top quality watches CW and excellent prices,put bigger brands to shame.
What a beauty! The watch of course... Not your mugshot... I got Scottish Marc from Long Island Watches vibes when your face popped up! Nowhere near as bad as you made out!
Great video. I love finding your videos when I search for a watch. Thanks for making and sharing them. Super useful
Thanks very much buddy, I'm glad you like my videos. Cheers 🙏
always love the wafflin’ mate
lol, thanks buddy
Just got my CW 12 grey dial and I'm in love the Finnishing is amazing I have a Tudor which cost double and the Finishing is no better this white dial is on my to buy list .
Great choice👌
I was in two minds about going for one of these. Cheers you just cost me £915 🤣. Seriously though great review and great looking watch.
Cheers mate 👍
What do we think of the reef blue? I have a seiko '5' sports automatic (23 jewels, 100M)
In blue and it cost me the truly 'Scottish' price of c.£160 five years ago.
I am tempted by the CW though - it looks awesome.
I watched your C63 Gmt review, which was great. Do you think you can buy that on a strip and this new braclet separately? This watch looks amazing also.
I believe they're different. Maybe ask Christopher Ward directly to confirm.
Are we going to ignore what this animal did at 11:50 😂😂😂😂😂 love it!!!
😆
I'm subscribed, permanently!!!
Great review! Looking to hit a personal goal this year end and if I do, I will be celebrating with one of these!!
Wish me luck! 🎉
Best of luck 👍
I always say this but, the trident seconds hand is killer.
It's an absolute gorgie this is. I might have to get one for myself.
How would you compare this C60 Atoll 300 vs. C60 Trident Pro 300 ? Other than the different bezel. What's the biggest difference?
There isn't much difference to be fair, other than the colourways and bezel.
Have you ever held a Traska Freediver, version 4 or 5? How would you compare the two? Is the CW really worth nearly double the price?
I reviewed the Traska Freediver v5 a couple of months ago.
Ward.. get your all watches COSC certified, i don t mind paying extra usd 250 - 300 more for that. Tks for the vid, man.
i was on the verge of buying a c60 anthropocene gmt until i saw a lot of reviews about poor quality and issues getting watches repaired when there are issues. customer service seems to have gone down the pan. as it sounds like you have had a few CW's have you had any issues?
I've never had any issues whatsoever.
Stunning!
Gorgeous watch!!
So that’s what became of Stevie Wonder 😂. Excellent review. Congratulations on your beautiful new watch. Cheers from 🇺🇸
Cheers 🙏
C63 has a different movement which is more accurate and has a longer power reserve of 56hours as opposed to the 38 this watch has, but the obvious thing to note one if a tool GMT watch and the other is imply a diver so they are different watches to begin with.
Great review. I’m not that familiar with CW but this is definitely an interesting watch.
Thanks for watching!
How does it compare to the SeaMaster to the Trident?
I've not reviewed the Seamaster
i shit you not Titoni seascoper is the best diver up to 2k,case,dial,materials and especially clasp is really something to behold.
I wouldn't know, I've never seen one.
Quick question. My watch came today but the bezel wobbles about like it's fractionally too big for the fixed minute track. I'm going to send it back but does yours do the same?
Nope
@toothy3637 My bezel was too loose with too much play as well.. and I couldn’t get the bracelet to lock in at noon position. Sending back
Hi,
I have it for a few days and I have noticed an uneven gap between the external bezel and the smaller inner bezel. It gets more noticeable when you push the bezel to one side, it then creates a gap on the other side... the gap is barely 1 mm large but it is enough to create an assymetrical look :/
Can you relate to that ?
Sorry in advance for my english, I'm from France
Nope. Mine and every other one I've seen have been perfect. If it's so noticeable, contact Christopher Ward.
@@ZaltekReviews Thanks for your promptly answer :) I will contact them.
The answer of CW customer service : "I have checked my model on the showroom and it is also the same. I have also checked with the head technician and they are aware of this and it is considered within our tolerances I am afraid so we cannot change/improve that movement at all."
I guess I am too demanding but still I was expecting more from this brand...
@@alexisfischer5546 I understood that if you return your watch within 60 days in an unmarked condition, CW would re reimburse you. Have you asked for a refund (assuming your watch is in A1 condition)
Mine is exactly the same. Very disappointed. After the last the few days trying to get through to CW customer service (absolute headache) they have said exactly the same response “within tolerance” and I have had to take an 80% refund after nearly 2 weeks of back and forth. Poor QC followed up with uncontactable customer service. When you are spending this much money you shouldn’t be faced with these issues and just for them to be brushed under the carpet. Such a shame.
Why no wrist shot. Hee Haw. 🤣 Great video and lovely watch. 👍
😆😆😆
11:55
Beautiful,I like pure white watch.
What's your wrist size mate ?
As I said in the video, it's 6.75"
@@ZaltekReviews Thanks mate..I must have missed it.
I would like to see from CW some refinements on the bracelet. If the case has some polishing, continue that to the bracelet. Clasp is way too large for a 40mm watch,put that on a mega dive watch not on this
To be honest, I love the clasp and think it's perfectly balanced in relation to the rest of the watch.
The CW bracelet is the best in the business
What language do you speak? We need subtitles.
I'm Scottish, turn on the subtitles if you need them. 🙄
38mm version and then take my money!
Very interesting subject. Too bad, for me: I just can't get through your thick accent.
At 51, I'm not going to try and change it.
You have a far less thick accent than plenty of other Folk from up north!
No probs for me.
Is that English? Love the review!
I'm from Scotland 🏴
