[@michaelbedford8017]

Don't hold your breath.

[@tivobelievo]

Yes. Precisionist movements are for real. The sweep truly is other level. Cannot be overstated. Their accuracy, in my experience tends to be a bit hyped. Most of my Precisionists are about as accurate as my other "regular" quartz watches. Meaning generally about 1 to 5 seconds per month fast. Casio seems to really understate their accuracy. Virtually all of my Casios gain 1 to 5 seconds per month, and a couple will lose 1 to 3 seconds per month, and a couple gain more than 10 seconds. THE most-accurate watch in my collection is a Casio G-9000 which is reading 0-seconds error after almost 4 months. And everytime I've checked it, it has never been more than 1 seconds off. Pretty good for about 80 bucks and a spec of +-15s/mo. Back on topic, lol, Bulova is sitting on a goldmine. And what do they do? Flood the market with garish huge ugly af 3-or-4-subdial chronos that read to 1/1000s. 🤦‍♂️ Full disclosure; I have 3 of those 1/1000s chronos, but they're more classic-looking. Not the freaky-futuristic newer stuff. They are still too big though. And heartbreakingly, my Lunar Pilot's seconds subdial has a mecha-quartish 3-ticks-per-second sweep. 🤦‍♂️Who's idea was it to make a Precisionist movement sweep like a VH/VK? 🙄 Man, if I could be King Of Bulova for a month! Dude, I'd change the freakin' world! 😄

[@richardshaw1968]

Cannot believe that you don’t mention Certina, they do quartz COSC chronographs in 41, 42 and 43mm. They have been offering the same movement for years.

[@Mister_Phafanapolis]

Certina, Mido, Rado have absolutely no Q rating within the watch idiot savant community. These brands allegedly tick all the boxes of historicity, provenance, tradition, Swiss-ness but people just DNGAF in the slightest about these brands. Every once in a while a model from one them will shuffle out and into the consciousness like the Captain Crook or the Nintendo DS but I never see those models present in SOTC pics. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.

[@OriginalBreezy]

I agree those Certina chronos are fantastic watches. Bought one last summer and I love it.

[@allanandrews7247]

Spot on.

[@jaysterling26]

​@@Mister_PhafanapolisAgreed. I got a DS38 diver ( good discount) as it ticked all the boxes in looks ( perfect size for me, retro but not too much) & specs ( sapphire, precise, anti magnetic ( just my 'issue'), etc. The movement gets a warning from some reviewers for having to be sent back to a Certina approved ( as most know) watchmaker but the prices are OK.

[@MADHIKER777]

Nice looking watch for sure. I actually like the big subdials. My complaint with most chronos is that I cannot read the tiny subdials making them useless. Also, I think I would prefer this on a strap as the bracelet steals some of the show from the watch.

39 is a perfect size for this. The proportions are fantastic as you can actually read the subdials. The market is oversaturated with 42mm chronos and most of them are a miss. This is a major hit. I guarantee he would complain about the size if they made a 42 instead of this. CW did everything right with this watch and quartz is a welcomed change of pace for them as they haven't done that in a while.

Jody, congrats on 300K subs! That is amazing for a watch channel. I think this is 3x over the price it is worth. I have two Seiko chronos both quartz. One has the 1/10 of a second dial and the other is a mecca quartz. Each was less than $200 USD. I don't see how you can see this as a good value for the Christopher ward. It's way too much money for the watch. I also hate butterfly clasp bracelets. And yes the Seiko watches have crappy bracelets on their Chronos so I use leather straps. Much more comfortable.

[@JeffKassel-x7m]

Hi, Jody. You mention that chronometer certification requires an average rate of +/-7 seconds per year. If your standard is the COSC specification, I found that to be an average rate of +/-0.07 seconds per day. That translates to about +/-25 seconds per year. I don’t know whether Christopher Ward specified the rate for this watch, but an overage rate of +/-25 seconds per year seems more in line with a standard frequency quartz while +/-7 seconds per year seems more in the realm of high frequency quartz movements. Still, beating +/-25 is still good performance.

Hey Jody, just wondering, if you could only wear one model of the ascent, which one are you choosing? Maybe a tough one for you and a little unfair to ask, but I’d really like to know what you’d choose! Can’t wait for mine to arrive 😃

[@nicksims2827]

I get the commenters saying that it’s expensive for a quartz, but it’s the same case as my C63, and the quality is FANTASTIC. This is a luxury watch and should be measured against Longines or maybe even Hamilton or IWC. Yes, you can get a Citizen or a Baltany for less money, but if price was everything, we’d all just have F91Ws.

[@lookatwrist]

'expensive for a quartz' doesnt make sense. A good quartz movement may be $50, around the same as a cheap Auto. These off the shelf mechanical movements aren't $500. Movements aren't the dominating cost.

a few very valid points...41+mm watch would sell much better than sub 40 in today's market. personally i love watch with no date on it.... automatic or manual or quartz... but i do not wear anything less then 42 because it looks like a toy on my hand. CW was always a nice brand that i liked. also its hard not to mention bel canto when you think about CW watches. they do make some very nice pieces. one of my very favorites by CW is c60 lympstone... that black on black carbon looks sick

[@Georgy_47]

just do what seiko did with their speedtimer but i would buy this over the seiko any day it's unique and the movement is serviceable for pennie's and looks amazing for a daily ❤

[@patrickhartmann1540]

Love CW. But agree that the sub registers are too large for the dial. Glenn should have reduced their circumference and increased spacing between them.

[@YouTube_is_full_of_trolls]

I hope CW goes in a two prawn direction. Make higher end models and make the "budget" models. They shouldn't pull a seiko and blow their base away to chase short-term gains on squeezing their customers. CWs were built on $1000 and less models. P.s Thank you for explaining the quartz chronometer certification. I saw it on a tissot quartz and thought they were taking a piss and just putting it on the face for marketing.

[@squirt12]

a two prawn direction? you mean like a shrimp? you think they should go in a two shrimp direction? please clarify.

[@ElectricShadowsZone]

Thanks for the review. I didn't see if the chrono seconds hand snaps back 12 when you do a reset like a Seiko meca-quartz or is it a lazy sweep to 12. Also I think as far as size is concerned, the sub dials could be slightly smaller and the overall size retained.

The movement is the same as in my Tissot PRS 200. It is an use and throw, non repairable entry level movement. Mine gave away after 10 years and took $120 dollars to replace The current Tissot Seastar chronographs also have the same movement

[@jazzman5598]

Someday somebody will modify a VK-67 to replicate a VJ 7750. They are close now. This watch needs a Mecha-Q style running seconds on the center seconds hand so no need for the sub-register to 1/10th of a sec. as 1/5th of a second is perfectly adequate. So, the 1/10th sec. sub-dial is replaced with a 12 hour totalizer. This watch has a very legible and historically correct : a 30 minute totalizer. Add a day/date at the 3:00 and call it a day. Oh….one more: Look to Seiko’s quartz movements with 8 to 12 jewels and made to be serviced. I will pay $1K for such a watch at 39 mm like my Glass Box Carrera. Just need screwdown crown & pushers :-) Great vid as always Jody, Thanks

[@johnmexico61]

The subdials are just too big for me. That and I’d have to get the one on that bracelet that makes it $850. I don’t think I’m down for that. It took me a minute to figure out that the thing blocking the subdial at 10 o’clock was the hour hand, which is weird. So those hands definitely get lost with all of that going on. Looks like I’ll still be maybe one day getting the twelve. If I could ever figure out which size and/or which color. Thanks for the review!

[@philspencelayh5464]

It's £750 in UK on a bracelet, the quartz movements is only about £60 as opposed to £400 for a valjoux 7750 from the same stable so it not exactly a bargain. I don't get chronographs at all but I'd have thought that if you want one then this size where its essence is emphasised would the way to go rather than a larger dial with smaller subdials. The accuracy of the watch is pretty impressive (forgetting the in my view largely pointless chronograph functions) so it compares well with Longines VHP and Grand Seiko and could make it seem more like a bargain.

[@ph8077]

How many watches is a reasonable number to own?! I won't be buying any more because I now own 8! Inc a brand new Rolex Yacht-Master as of last week.

[@23727bgk]

Great quartz grab n go chrono but my Pagani Mega quartz watches are a bargain by comparison. Slightly larger would be nice to free up subdial space. How about offering a more expensive day date, automatic using the Valjoux (or whatever new brand is called) 7750?

[@tivobelievo]

VERY impressive accuracy from this movement. But when I think of Christopher Ward, I think of mechanical movements. And the once-per-second ticking of most quartz movements irks me. Plus, I'm pretty much over chronographs at this point. The watch market needs another chronograph like Elon needs a Starbucks rewards card. I'd be WAY more likely to drop $650 on a quartz CW if it had a VH or VK movement in it. Preferably a VH so no chrono. Yes, I know I'm sacrificing hair-splitting accuracy. And I don't care that manufacturing costs would be way lower but that I'm still paying the same price. I don't need or want a chrono, especially one that ticks once-per-second. But I do want a CW with sweeping (or sweeping-ish) seconds hand and a great dial for way under USD 1,000.

[@JoseReyes-jt6ob]

Creo que el tamaño del reloj es perfecto. Lo que está muy grande es el área blanca de las sub esferas.

Good looking watch Jody but for a quartz, to my mind still too pricy for around $1000 aud. I have zero issues with quartz watches and own plenty of them but $1000 ! If Bulova sort out the correct size Lunar Pilot that's what I would buy.

Rather than the no doubt huge cost of designing and making a bigger case why not just make the sub dials a tad smaller on a 2.0 version 🤷🏻‍♂️ It’s easier to move Mohammed to the mountain than move the mountain which as far I know tend to be a little bit difficult to move.

[@bigsmooshflopdong33]

The moonswatch uses a G10.212... Almost all ETA quartz movements have the option for a "precidrive" version. Swatch group brands barely advertise this, but you'd be surprised at how many "cheap" swatch group quartz chronos have the exact same movement, like half the price of the Chris Ward. Even then, the G10 movement is likely the most basic swiss quartz chrono movement you can get. The ETA 251.264 PRD would've been absolutely amazing to see in the watch, 27 jewel quartz, actually serviceable, 5 motors, rattrapante hands, preci-drive and power-drive, also can tick up to 100 times a seconds and measures 1/100th for the chronograph. Not that impressed with the G10 to be honest.....

[@fontyyy]

You just doubled the price of the movement.

[@marcusdare1688]
