Going to hazard a guess at Trident Pro 300 GMT.

Maybe 600m as a special edition now and then. I'm not sure CW would want to spend a lot of R&D on a new 600m model, though.

We will see in a couple of days.
Miss the 600 for the people (Me) who do not like the inner aluminum ring.

I think this last teaser seals it.
It's a Trident Pro 300 GMT.

Regarding the T4 I think it would be a much more bombastic announcement. And to be frank, given the success of the Pro 300, I don't think they are in any hurry to relaunch a Pro 600.

If it were me, I would fuse the Pro 600 and the Elite and for the future T4 would make a 600 in Titanium as the "deep diver" addition to the Trident family.

The second teaser suggests a GMT, and maybe with a yellow cabs theme so the C63 Bronx maybe?

I very much agree that this is a dive watch deduced from the first teaser with the water background & definitely a GMT from this latest teaser with the yellow GMT arrow. Makes sense that it would be a Trident Pro 300 GMT with a 12 o'clock double indice to match the teaser.

@tikkathree
I spotted the yellow cabs too, and reckon that CW are opening a boutique in NYC.
Perhaps? :D

That all makes a ton of sense! I think it’s a very logical course of action for CW.

I'm going to wish for a Twelve GMT, I can't say why though.

Next thing, whichever case it turns out to be, is the online watch community getting into a state over "traveller" or "office" GMT?

I'm pretty sure it is a GMT Pro300. Now the question remains: will it be GMT watch or a Diver watch ? (It's all about the bezel)

My money would be on a GMT. The Elite Pro GMT didn't sell very well I don't think. It isn't officially retired but hasn't been restocked either in a really long time (if my memory serves not since the initial release in 2020).

It is probably a 300 GMT. They just released the Dragonfly C63 in August 2023 so it probably isn't that variant.

As far as a 600 Pro MK4 goes, it does probably make sense to drop the good, better, best and just keep the 300 and introduce a 600/elite hybrid. I still think there is room for a better model than the 300.

I think the current Elite is a good watch but there are a couple of nagging things that keep me from getting one. I think they should ditch the 0-16 minute underline (should only be 15 minutes anyway) and go with hashes like the Ombré. They should have updated the dial too. It didn't show much confidence putting out a 'Back In Stock' media hit in Sept/Oct with the old style marking on the dial.

Would anyone have any guidance on the time new releases tend to launch on the website? New to CW and I’m hoping these teasers are indicators of a Trident 300 GMT.

I was wondering the same. What time of the day do they normally update their website?
