Signed crown, screwdown, well-made threads. You can also see the screws on the strap as well as the brushed case finish. The Lido is brushed throughout, for a low-key appearance. I took this picture to show the polished surfaces of hands and applied markers, and it also hints at the domed and coated crystal. A nice play of light as you move your wrist. The dial is brass with a central guilloche pattern. I'm a big fan of the Christopher Ward brand. I've bought five of their watches since 2006, including a very nice C5 Malvern for my brothers' college graduation. CW makes really nice watches that are stunning values: Swiss made, ETA movements, sapphire crystals with anti-reflective coatings, good lume, excellent straps or bracelets, and under $1,000. The Lido here is 254 pounds for non-EC buyers, which works out to $420 (US Price here). A wonderful deal.
