Nice one and perfect size for your wrist. I loved the PRX but my wrist is kind of in-between sizes so I sold my 40mm and got a killer Nivada F77 at 37mm instead. It's got heritage since it first came out in the 70s, a ton of personality and great quality too.
Bro that looks so sick. You absolutely nailed the colourway. I don’t even know you and it just feels like it suits you more than any other colour. This review sold that colour to me. Glad you’re enjoying it.
I have the same size wrists as you and for me it’s no question that the 36 is the right size, looks great. It’s good to see people going for sizes that actually look good on them - unlike some who look goofy with comically large watches for their wrists lol
Great vid! I just got my Maen Manhattan 37 seconde/seconde Limited edition and have been looking at the Twelve this spring/summer! Great looking piece and also would look propably nice on my 6.5’ inch wrist!
@@TattedTroyGuy How does one assess the quality of the movement? It's barebones Sellita. It works. So it does its job for this watch. I also got my Manhattan few days ago. One does not buy this watch because of the movement - you buy it because of the design and finishing!
Nice review. People also need to know that just becauss someone has the same wrist circumference, the watch is going to fit the same. I have a 6.5" wrist as well but flat horizontally and the 36 was too small for me. The 36 looks nice on you.
My wrist is about 17cm (6.7 in) and I have yet to figure out which size would be better. I wanna go for the titanium version that has the more accurate movement. But then again, the available colors are so different. Loving the 'Nebula Purple' on the 40mm case but it might be too big. Aaahh the decision is hard x)
Awesome watch, great vid! I have roughly 7 inch wrist so i think the 40mm will sit better on me, tho could probably swing either way. Im waiting for a black dial variant to be released, hopefully next year
awesome awesome video and review!! I was waiting patiently for the 36mm and loved they finally released it. I just hope they release it in Basalt Grey next, dying for this color to be released!!
I was shopping for a integrated bracelet sports watch a few months ago. The CW12 was on my short list. It would have been my second CW. I chose to purchase another watch. Still, The 12 in an amazing watch. No doubt. Maybe I’ll talk myself into buying one next time CW mails out coupons. A 36mm is a wonderful size to wear. Great review.
I'm really in doubt between that CW 12 in white dial, smiths everest or a lorier falcon 3. Could you help me out? between that smiths and cw12 what do you like more
I know I'm annoying but I personally think that every review should put their wrist size in the video description and in the channel description as the first thing
I held off buying the TRX. Just seemed too entry level ish, very basic and lacking refinement. I was hoping you bought the white dial to see what you think but I will know soon enough because mine will arrive in a few days. She seems like she will be a beauty but I’m scared it will look too feminine. I’m really bummed this watch is not COSC certified. Unless I fall in love with her, I will return it since I’ve grown to value COSC certification in a watch. Im with you that I would pay a bit more for added finish detail and that lacking in the PRX would tire me quickly. Thanks for your first impressions.
I agree, it’s better built than the PRX - but it’s definitely not worth double. I look at the sum of the parts. Both the Twelve and PRX are just steel sport’s integrated watches with workhorse movements so there’s no reason to pay double for the Twelve unless you’re clear in your mind that you’re paying a premium for the extra little details if that matters to you. This is because the cost to produce steel three -hand watches is extremely low. Just look at your Smith’s Everest. It comes from a factory in China. You’re merely paying for the design. It costs very little to make these cookie cutters in China.
The bracelet ‘feels’ more quality because the metal is thicker. That’s all. The PRX bracelet is thinner because it was a design choice. And the bracelet uses screws because it’s thicker. The PRX uses pins because the bracelet isn’t thick enough to drill holes in it that would hold screws. That’s the differences. If you feel that makes the Twelve better quality that is a reasonable sentiment. But remember one thing. Steel is a very cheap material. So giving you a thicker bracelet won’t cost CW that much extra vs Tissot. It’s just your perception, that’s all. Steinhart uses screws on all their bracelets and they sell for considerably less than CW. So drilling holes for screws won’t add that much extra cost either. You’re just paying for that ‘perceived’ premium. CW is making a bigger profit per watch than Tissot and Steinhart, that’s all. And the chamfering on the bracelet. A lot of cheaper watches have that detail too. Labour cost in China is still low versus Switzerland etc.
Well said, " not worth double a PRX"....If you did nit waste money on two PRX and a CW yoi could have spent all on a real watch and not 3 useless paper weights.
I can’t take anyone seriously when they wear a baseball cap indoors, in a video! Why do so many Americans feel the need to do this? - at least it’s the right way around, I suppose 😂
Dude, haven’t you heard, the she watch is the new he watch. I have this same 36 arriving in a few days in white with gold indices and scared it’s going to look too feminine but I have a feeling it’s going to look “perfect”!
Great review! So pleased to hear you're loving your Twelve (36) 🙌
Guys please release the grey in 36mm🙏🙏
the grey in 36mm, pls!!
We want grey in 36!

it fits your wrist perfectly 😀 I myself would never buy a watch under 40 mm as I myself have a large wrist
diameter case = wrist circumference(cm) x 2.4
I have been looking at one of these for my son, it’s between this and the 35mm PRX. Nice detailed review
Great looking piece, in my option the twelve looks far more expensive. Very stylish indeed.
It should, because it is.
I ordered the 36mm Nordin blue last week. Delivery end of Sep, can’t wait!
Very sick!
I saw this in the watch collection video and instantly nodded my head through the screen.
Love the colour as well!
The PRX has a 80 hour power reserve, surely that would make anyone consider that more over this, shame CW didn't release a gold version.
36 looks really good on your wrist. Right size for sure
Love that color choice. Great video, as I've been considering this exact watch since it came out.
I've got the Nordic blue 36mm. Love it so far. Bracelet was easy to size aswell.
It's a waaaay more handsome watch than the PRX. No contest.
The colour you chose is really beautiful too. I'm currently awaiting one...
Great vid! I just got my Maen Manhattan 37 seconde/seconde Limited edition and have been looking at the Twelve this spring/summer! Great looking piece and also would look propably nice on my 6.5’ inch wrist!
Have my eye on that Maen as well. Do you like her and quality and movement?
Maen Manhattan is awesome! The triple calendar one is on my list 🙂

Trying really hard not to buy one. It’s a struggle every time I see someone wearing one. 😢

Did you ever make a decision on the size?
Thanks for this video! It looks great and fits you perfectly. I'm really tempted to pick one up as well! Even more so after watching this!
Great review man. I love this watch. How do you not have more subscribers
Nice video! Just wanted to say I think the watch looks like it fits you perfectly.
This review is going to make me buy my second Christopher Ward.
Great video man! Congratulations on the new piece
Awesome watch, great vid!
I have roughly 7 inch wrist so i think the 40mm will sit better on me, tho could probably swing either way. Im waiting for a black dial variant to be released, hopefully next year
Dude, great looking watch and it looks perfect on your wrist. Congrats!
36mm fits you well. Your wrist looks smaller than 6.5".
awesome awesome video and review!! I was waiting patiently for the 36mm and loved they finally released it. I just hope they release it in Basalt Grey next, dying for this color to be released!!
We’re still waiting. I don’t get why they haven’t released it
Damn you are building a serious collection now, would you do a SOTC, the ones you were the most and the ones on your wish list 🙏

Looks great and love the size
The CW logo is the Swiss flag and the UK flag .I like the twelve TI 40 mm purple edition releasing in November 2023.
It's the swiss flag and the English flag.
NO ‼️ You obviously know NOTHING ‼️ It’s the Swiss flag next to an ENGLISH flag! 🇨🇭🏴 🤬
Awesome watch! Really love the dial color on this one
I'm really in doubt between that CW 12 in white dial, smiths everest or a lorier falcon 3. Could you help me out? between that smiths and cw12 what do you like more
Great video mate, wear it in good health my friend 🎉🎉
i was100% set on the prx for my 1st watch but your videos have me second guessing it now for the 12 lol. im stuck now
I know I'm annoying but I personally think that every review should put their wrist size in the video description and in the channel description as the first thing
Great choice, and thx for the unboxing!
I'll wait for the 38 :)
If you wanted to, you could become a big watch TH-camr, seriously. Great vid man
I love my 40mm glacier blue!!! ❤ Congrats on your pickup
What watch did you had on when unboxing ? 🧐
Honest review. 👍
Thanks for the great video! How do you like it so far?
Nice. I’ve got a 39mm Speedmaster and much prefer it to the professional. Great watch and sorely tempted
Bro where did you get that hat?! I must know…

what watch were you wearing before the unboxing?
Smiths Everest PRS 25
Nice watch....Enjoy !
great video
Nice video!
Why compare to the PRX? It's twice the price. Of course the CW has better finishing.
People seriously gotta get off the PRX
Exactly! Even on video, the external difference in quality is plain to see - then there are the plastic parts in the PRX……
It’s definitely worth twice the PRX
Can you feel the rotor move on your wrist?
It’s a SW200-1, so no.
The movement doesn’t seem to the best value for $$. I mean 38hrs compared to a prx of 80hrs
Zenith bracelet
Your brain is correct. Like buying a larger-screen TV. The first thought are "Oh that's big" By day 2 you think it's perfect

I hate their logo. It reminds me of a hospital emergency center.

“Real Watch” 😂😂😂
@@JacoBee93 yep, alias not a piece of shit (probably what you are wearing)
I can’t take anyone seriously when they wear a baseball cap indoors, in a video! Why do so many Americans feel the need to do this? - at least it’s the right way around, I suppose 😂
With this price, you could have bought a Hamilton or a really good Seiko..
i'm sure that, like most enthusiasts/collectors, he probably already has half-a-dozen seikos.
It’s not the same in term of finishing. But you are trading brands equity and movement for the finishing and “Genta” homage
Great...he clearly didn't want any of that. Hamilton also uses no AR coating on their watches and it's retarded
Hamilton are boring, and Seiko are ugly
And niether would come close in terms of finishing cw on another level
grown ass man with a tiffany dial 36 ? 😂😂😂
Tiffany green
Nice ladies watch brah
Nice brah watch ladies

diameter case(mm) = wrist circumference(cm) x 2.4
Not every man has a 7" or larger wrist, and that's okay!
That’s a pretty nice ladies watch.
once you resize this watch.....the box is useless.
What do you mean?
Much like your comment
@@Valentin_97 buy one...resize the watch to your wrist and find out....
I *think* he means the watch will never see the inside of the box since you'll be wearing it all the time, and hence the box being useless.
