New Club Watch Confirmed: Last Chance to Express Interest

[Alex Rae]

If you have seen Low Flying, you may have seen the article about the new Club watch. Further details are shown below.

If you would like to express interest, please email me at alexjrae@hotmail.com. If and when we reach the minimum order number, I'll pass names and email addresses to Peter at Christopher Ward who will be in contact.

If you have any questions about the watch or ordering, then please get in touch with me.

Many thanks,

 

Alex

Thanks for organising this Alex, but at £685 it's difficult to justify.

A couple of hundred would have been easy to get past SWMBO.

Thanks anyway.

If the quality is good, sounds like a fair deal for an automatic watch, which is bespoke - might be something to pass along with the caterham to the next generation ;-)

[Alex Rae]

A bump to remind folk to email me if you are interested. 
 

Thanks,

Seems lower interest this time round?   

[Alex Rae]

That is true, but given 150 were sold last time them that may not be a surprise. 
 

There are a number of reasons why there will be less interest this time, including the number of people who may not want another Club watch and the higher price of an automatic watch.
 

In terms of people emailing me expressions of interest, there are a lot more people wanting one than it would appear from the lack of engagement on Blatchat.

I didn't express an interest because I don't like dark blue, same as the club jacket i won't be buying one of those unless it will be available in other colours.

Email received.

Morning folks,

I am due to speak with Christopher Ward this week about next steps. If anyone is thinking of expressing interest, but has yet to do so, it would be good to hear from you sooner rather than later. 
 

I don't know what the process will be once we have the green light and I'd hate for anyone to miss out who would like one. 
 

I will email everyone who has expressed interest when I have spoken to Christopher Ward and outline what happens next. 
 

Many thanks,

Alex

Hi Alex

I did express an initial interest but on seeing the pricing I'm afraid I will not be taking it any further !

Chris Ward products are brilliant nothing to do with the quality ect, just the wrong timing.

Thanks

If it's down to "wrong timing", maybe a new wristwatch will be just the thing!

[Alex Rae]

The good news is that I've spoken to Christopher Ward and we are all good to go ahead. There is sufficient interest and the price is fixed at the level shown in this thread. 
 

I need to send a list of those wishing to order to Christopher Ward. I'm happy to wait to the middle of the week to allow anyone who is interested to buy a watch. 
 

Drop me an email to express interest or to ask any questions. 
 

Thanks,

 

Alex
