I think you should send them an email so they can charge you an extra surcharge to make sure you're satisfied

I know it won the best watch under $8k award a couple of years ago but I still feel something is missing!

In my opinion, the answer is obvious. Christopher Ward makes his watches under his own name, as the "great watchmakers" have done for centuries.
But, as a result, he does not have a heritage of several hundred years.
And he did not even dare to buy some forgotten, long-closed big-name watch brand, to "resurrect" it and sell the same wonders at exorbitant prices. This is something, what you can appreciate about them. I, for example, like this attitude

Anyone who owns the watch or any CW can share their experience? Reliability, accuracy, QC issues??

Phoenix, Vulcan: no problem at all. All perfect, solid watches. You can feel that these are not just "small-scale" works, but that there is really serious engineering behind them.
JasH always shares the pictures of his special editions. And honestly, he has a much better ability to take good pictures than I do.
