Re: 2024 expectations
I would like to see a 38mm C63 Sealander offered in Marine Blue, or even Dragonfly Blue, but don't know how likely it is that they would add a model in that size when they already offer it in 36mm and 39mm.
I would also be very interested in a C65 Dune in Marine Blue with white lume instead of the Old Radium lume it currently uses.

Welcome. Do please visit the Member Introduction section and tell us about yourself.
I agree that a 38 mm Sealander would probably not be likely given that the larger version is only 1 mm bigger. I have one of the GMT models and it’s very wearable.

Re: 2024 expectations
Having just become the proud owner of the C65 Aquitaine I think the natural successor to this would be a 39mm version, with COSC movements in all case materials. I also think they should drop the trident seconds counterweight keeping it to just for the C60 Trident range….. After all that’s the signature seconds hand for that model, but it seems kinda out of place in other ranges, in my opinion anyway.
Re: 2024 expectations
I personally love the trident counterweight, but I'm not a really big fan of the Trident line. So having it on the Aquitaine made it perfect for me.

Re: 2024 expectations
I do love it in the Trident range and think it’s CW’s signature Mercedes hand moment, but don’t see the point in using it in other models, It kinda devalues it in my opinion.alexqaws wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 8:46 amI personally love the trident counterweight, but I'm not a really big fan of the Trident line.

Re: 2024 expectations
The C60 Trident Pro 300 on the CW website now has applied logo. I think this is new? Pretty sure that wasn’t the case when I was looking a month or so ago.

Re: 2024 expectations
Applied logo you mean? It looks rather good!
Rich.

Re: 2024 expectations
Would the 1mm from 39mm to 38mm really make a difference to your view of the Sealander? I can barely see 1mm on a measuring rule !Tad Queasy wrote: ↑Thu Jan 18, 2024 5:36 pm I would like to see a 38mm C63 Sealander offered in Marine Blue, or even Dragonfly Blue, but don't know how likely it is that they would add a model in that size when they already offer it in 36mm and 39mm.

I know "Never say Never" but I would never expect CW to release a 3rd size in range of an existing watches that's smaller by 1mm unless they are re-vamping the whole design.
Re: 2024 expectations
I think it's always had applied indices but the applied logo is relatively recent. 2023 Pro300s on eBay show the "painted" logo.
Re: 2024 expectations
Doh. I did mean logo.
Re: 2024 expectations
I've got a few watches in my cart but none are perfect... i kinda was hoping for a new sapphire, a smaller one maybe based on the c63 instead of the c60. might i might end up pulling the trigger on a c63 anyway tho.

Re: 2024 expectations
Yeah i know, which makes it hard to pull the trigger on any one particular one, since this is going to be my first CW.
Re: 2024 expectations
The fact that you have a few in your basket and not one you love make me question your purchase. Are you buying because you think it’s a deal, cos you just need a watch or some other reason?

Re: 2024 expectations
I think CW will limit it's up market potential if it it continues to rely on the SW200.rockchalk89 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 04, 2024 6:14 pm What are people’s thoughts on development of a modified SW200/SW300 to add a longer power reserve? Would be great to see something like this while maintaining the same beat rate. Curious in general if they’ll lean more heavily into the engineering/technical side.
