Anyone got any steampunk-y ones or ones that have a clear clock face that show moving gears?

My wife purchased a Christopher Ward Malvern Automatic C5SKS for me for Christmas.

It's our fourth order from Chris Ward to Canada. Saved lots of $$$ on duty via Royal Mail rather than the US outlet. Between 6 and 8 days is the norm. This one was ordered Dec 8th and was signed for by Canada Post Dec 12. And now it sits in Canada Customs. As the email from Canada Post CS says 'they have the legal right to hold as long as they see fit'. As such, it's been sitting there for 13 days. Understanding this is a busy time of the year, it is still so bloody unacceptable. So, thanks Canada Customs. Thanks a lot! Merry ******* Christmas to you, too.

Royal Mail passing through Canadian customs, is that how it generally works?

My current watch is the Christopher Ward C3 Malvern Chronograph. It seems to eat battery life though!! The dials are based on the dashboard dials of a vintage Aston Martin!

Sorry to hear the watch is stuck in customs. It's a real beauty, though. Congrats on the purchase. I intend buying the same watch, soon, but on the steel bracelet. Christopher Ward watches look fantastic, and such a great price too.

It is a Cartier Pasha, and I purchased it at more than half off of retail!
