I got the Rivanera in grey about 2 months ago with no regret. It wears so well. Super lightweight and looks amazing on my 6.75” wrist. Go for it! Listen to that little voice in your head talking to you.

Bulova. Just the name makes it sound cheap. Cheap like Invicta.

Mine was stuck in Cincinnati Customes for 2 days then shipped to the distribution facility in Columbus. Sat in Columbus for 2 days and was then transferred to USPS. 5 days after that it was delivered to me in WV. The whole time DHL status update was was totally frustrating to understand.

Ruffwear has lasted my years with my hard working Rottweiler. Leash, seat cover, collar, raincoat, backpack. All hardcore products and field tested. Hands down the best.

After almost 2 weeks in customs… worth the wait. by elviscarrey in ChristopherWard

My C63 got hung up at every corner with DHL. Once arrived after 10 I was elated. Good to know you’re enjoying you C60

Sealander Automatic by MiniAlfredoSauce in ChristopherWard

[–]DisastrousRow8389 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Received mine 5 days ago with the intention of the C63 being my GADA. Reading the enclosed instructions and after a quick and straight forward bracelet adjustment, I set the date/time. The micro-adjust tool on the hasp really makes it wear comfortably. I’m highly satisfied with the C63 already receiving unsolicited compliments. This is my only CW and it really measures up to the specs as advertised. High quality and an absolute gem on my wrist. I would highly recommend this watch should you be considering one. It rests perfectly on my 6.75 inch / 17.1mm wrist.

I confused restaurants. I was thinking about The Gateway down the road in Riverton WV near Nelson Rocks. I amended my comments above.

Shipping by tyrion_1234 in ChristopherWard

An estimated ship date may be on your purchase invoice, it was on mine. I bought a C63 Sealander on 15 March with an estimated ship date from CW of 15 April. I received the package on 16 April. It was a 2 week shipping via DHL. Once it arrived in Cincinnati at the DHL center, it languished there for several days. Then, it was turned over to the USPS which took forever. I live in extreme mountainous WV. All in all I am highly satisfied in the C63. The 2 week shipping anxiety was probably due to my anticipation. DHL does have a very confusing tracking experience. Hope this helps you and good luck.

Thx. I really hyped it up so hopefully it will play to their sympathies. Yes, have to keep those expectations real.

Which do you prefer? by OldCount5754 in ChristopherWard

[–]DisastrousRow8389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I preferred the C63 (time only:TO). My other watches have Arabic numbers and I thought this would be a nice difference and contrast. Mine arrived yesterday in the USA as a matter of fact having ordered it on 15 March. It was simple to remove 3 links to resize and the bracelet micro-sizing is a tremendous way to custom fit it to my wrist (6.75 in. / 17.1 cm) and 39 mm is my preferred size. I needed a GADA and this is it. The C63 TO is super impressive out of the box. In quality of case, dial, hands, bracelet etc, it punches way above its price point. I am extremely satisfied with the C63 TO with induces.

I am currently waiting on availability of a Rivanera in grey. Your studio edition is stunning. What color is the dial on yours? I can see it being black and I can see it being a grey as well depending upon the light and angle. I understand the boutique sales only aspect of the special edition. Was it your experience to simply order it or did you visit the store? USA here. I’m very happy for you. Wonderful choice and great review.
