It’s such a shame because they’re spot on in so many other ways. The 3rd edition of their diver is super nice apart from that logo again.

those look really good but for the money i think you can find better watches.
i'm talking to a guy now for a diver 65 42mm (although i prefer the 40mm) if i can get it down to 850 euro i will take it. -

Nice!
But that's not the the dbl subdial versions so it would be less.

Wild that you guys take issue with the very considered Christopher Ward logo and not with setting the word “Tourbillon” in Arial on a Patek.

Have you considered therapy? You and Arial clearly have some issues to work through.

Funny, I have the same logo feelings about Oris
-
• #36413
U make a good point but I guess the subtext isn't as prominent therefore not really an issue for the majority. 😎

I'm with you on Oris too. Its more ignorable than CW though.

They should drop the ‘Christopher’ and Steinhart should drop either stein or hart. I think that offends me more.

• #36416
awesome (what model is that)

That Oris having the minute markers twice (face and bezel) is well annoying

Yeah I don't get the hate for the CW logo. But then I'm more of a modern type fan - it feels miles better than their old logo.
And I love their stuff - the C65 GMT is on my birthday list.

I fully understand the ickiness, and I say that as a fan. Christopher Ward are unique in that their logos keep getting worse and worse, and I think that's made it a bit of a 'thing' that it wouldn't otherwise be.
I bought a Trident from the second generation (with the old ChrWard logo) and I always wanted one from the previous generation because I hated the logo so much. (It looks like the word COWARD from a distance, and once you see it you can't unsee it).
Then the third generation logo came along and I started counting myself lucky that I got the second generation one.
It's a bit like the problems Helson had at the start with waterproof-ness. It could've been brand-ending but they sorted it out within 2nd gen and now no-one really talks about it anymore. Christopher Ward could've done the same quite easily with a decent logo.

It's the placement I struggle with (CW logo). The characters have too much presence to live on the left hand side of the dial comfortably.
I think if it was traditionally placed with the text center oriented I don't think half as many people would find it problematic.

I think it's because Rolex has the bezel ones much bolder and the Oris are both the same weight.

Personally I prefer the new sub bezels. I think some asymmetry, be it colour or numeral scale change looks better. Even more so if there is no date. Otherwise it's all a bit roundy.

Mostly because I might consider buying a Christopher Ward. I think I've only ever seen one Patek that I ever liked. I think they're really dull
Yeah, the first moonphase that I think would actually work for me. But the logo :-( Just sort it out CW!
