Next watch??

Gray1972
After much consideration, I've decided that I'm going to pull the trigger on a CW piece in the next few weeks. I had decided on the Sandhurst Series 2 in the steel. Various reasons for my decision, one of which is the COSC certified movement. And then the Dune models came out. The bronze is the only COSC certified one. I have never owned a bronze watch. I'm kind of drawn to them, but only on the straps. Not overly keen on the date, but I do like the dial colours. Not sure whether to go with my original choice, which is A on the steel bracelet. I would also add a couple of the alternative straps from CW. Opinions and your choice would be great?

I'm hoping to upgrade my Seiko field watch to a CW at some point. Absolutely had to have numbers on the dial (for legibility on hikes) and be able to take some knocks. Hence I chose A.

I am exactly in the same dilemma !!!

I had my eyes on the CW Sandhurst 2 and then saw the Dune drop and I also wouldn't mind a bronze watch. 

I dont like the idea of a bronze bracelet though as I think it is gonna go past the stage of looking good and I don't fancy a green wrist in the summer.

I voted A , it will be the most versatile , not listed was the black dialed Dune which for me is a tie breaker on the bracelet with a leather tan strap added as an extra. Not COSC but I could live with that.

Yep, I think A is the full package! Good luck with your upgrade 🥳 mate.

I think A is the one. And yes, agreed, a green wrist would not be good 🙈🤣. 

I'm partial to a green dial, but not my actual wrist. I just think the bronze bracelet is a bit overkill for me. 

Black Dune is lovely too! I think they are killing it at the moment. I would prefer a better power reserve........not sure why, as I have fingers to wind it. I think for the money, it's hard to beat.
