QUOTE(MaxWealth @ Dec 7 2010, 07:25 PM) Huh bro? Made in china? Any further info i can get from the web? search with uncle G but info is limited...it says it from italy bla bla bla... Cerrutti is famous for their fashion, watches are just their sub line, which they don't make their own.

QUOTE(evilnickwong @ Dec 8 2010, 10:06 AM) My contribution back to the thread in the form of a photo.  Was asking recently about buying online. I ended up with this Mondaine Sport I Chrono in PVD black that arrived yesterday. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Sweet looking watch! Very 'clock' like. Is the case PVD-ed?

QUOTE(Prometric @ Dec 8 2010, 03:02 PM) Im currently looking for a luxury watch. I have scale down to between a Panerai 312 and a Graham Chronofighter. Any opinion on this 2 watches? 2 very different animals. Graham too over the top for me. Up to your personal choice. Panerai 312 is own movement, but read got some issue on that. http://www.sg-roc.com/showthread.php?t=38725&page=1http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=130758&drgn=1This post has been edited by ck77: Dec 8 2010, 03:14 PM

QUOTE(Prometric @ Dec 8 2010, 03:14 PM) What do you mean by " too over the top" ? I can get a 40% discount for a Graham, hence that is why it's included in my choice. The design is too bold for me, aka ugly. Well it's just my view. Many people like it.

QUOTE(jamescooper @ Dec 9 2010, 10:48 AM) Hi guys!! I'm new here. Reason for being here is that I was planning to get myself a new watch but I have little knowledge about watches. So I found myself here and have read through the thread and learn many things about watches. After 2 weeks of research, I have decided to buy my next watch, which is the CW C8 MK ll. Ordered last week, and still waiting for the delivery. Hopefully I can get it by next week =) Congrats on your new purchase  Share us some pictues when you got it. Seems many CW owners here already  patryn, we might post a list of the owners
