One off CWC incoming!

Been looking hard at vintage rolexes - 1680, 5512, 5513, and the transitional matte dial variants of the 16800.

But I want something I can actually enjoy in the water but yet with the flavor of yesteryear.

So shot Mal at CWC a message and here is the proof of concept (MKI case that was out was used) they threw together today. I’ll have the matte top MKII case but there’s the theme.

- 1980 SF300 dial and handset in C3 lume.
- ETA 2824-2
- MKII case

So it’s a classic design, modern build, and no faux patina.

Remember if you want a one off Mal at CWC will do whatever you think of with their parts/watches - why I love my 1983MKII and the brand - they enjoy doing fun things for the buyer.

Thank you - Mal just shot me a message and said the piece is in timing and once all checks are complete (timing / WR / QC) it will ship asap in the next day or so.
