c60 anthropocene discontinued?, no it's back!

A warm welcome to the forum. The Anthropocene was a C60 600. The success of the C60 300 has put the C60 600s on hiatus. I do see them come up with some regularity. After 5 posts you will have access to the sales corner here and there is always Ward Hoard and eBay.

Oh never a truer word was spoken. In my working life I spent some time helping people get back into work and regularly was presented with "I can't cope with change" or words to that effect: it was always an easy one to get beyond.

Anyway, back to watches.......

Bought the 12 and then went to buy the C60 because I liked them both just as it disappeared from the website. I had at the time direct contact with a project manager due to issues with the 12 I got (-20 sec a day which is poor considering its certified Chrono ) and was told they had issues with manufacture of the see thru dial and would be back when issue resolved but I guess the success of the 12 put the C60 on the back burner and ultimately they've canned it due to slow sales compared to the 12 and bel canto. Just my insight. Shame as I really liked that watch.

Personally I'm not enamoured with the four black screws holding the dial in place and, I think, all the see-through dials have the same arrangement. I've trained my eyes to look elsewhere and not to get angsty. I recall seeing a few social media posts showing cracking through the drilled holes.

There's always the C65 Anthropocene by the way; the dial might not be frosty, more of a snowfield.

@tim12 - welcome to the forum.

As I wrote in this thread back in March (quoted below), and as alluded to by Rich @rkovars, the primary reason for the retirement of the C60 Anthropocene GMT is the switch away from the C60 Pro 600.

I have a C60 Anthropocene GMT as well (I actually have two, one with each logo ) and quite agree with you.

I think though, the harsh reality is that CW retired the main C60 Trident Pro 600 range, on which the Anthropocene GMT is based, last summer. I imagine they set aside the required number of cases, crystal, movement etc. to go with the dial, bezel etc. they had for the Anthropocene but thereafter, once it's gone it's gone.

Maybe, in time, there'll be a C60 Pro 300 Anthropocene GMT.

PS> I've owned several of the C60 Sapphire and a couple C60 Anthropocene GMT and the four, black locating screws have never bothered me.
