I just read the digital copy of Loupe and also perhaps a hint of a new C11 Makaira. Would be interesting for me, I’ve owned 6 of them I think, would prefer a slightly daintier updated model though.
I'll have to rethink my whole collection (again ) if there's a re-issued C11....

From CW:
The C60 Trident Pro 300: There’s another 300 on the horizon, which will be very special. “We’re going to take the technical and tool-watch ability of the C60 Pro 300 to the next level,” says Product Designer William Brackfield. “We’ll play on the themes of accuracy, luminescence and case finishing to make what we think is the ultimate C60 Trident Pro 300.”
The new watch will use the strongest and lightest metals in its construction and bring finishing standards to those of the most esteemed watch houses. “We’ll be using a unique combination of case finishing never before seen on a CW watch – and rarely seen in the industry,” says William. “And mixing the quality synonymous with the Light-catcher™ case with a rugged tool-watch feel.
You could say it’s the best of both worlds!” With a release date in 2024 confirmed, it won’t be long until you can judge for yourself.

I was about to buy a trident pro 300 until I read this.
It’s stopped me buying the current model in case I prefer the new model when it’s released. It makes me wonder how many other people are in the same dilemma?

They would be perfectly happy for you to buy both, then you wouldn’t be assailed by doubt or FOMO.

Same here! Any idea when we'd expect this new model?

Definitely sometime in 2024; and hopefully sooner that later.

I've got a C60 Trident Pro 300 already (bought last year) but I feel the new 'ultimate C60 Trident Pro 300' with be just that 'Ultimate'.
Thus it will be top of the range / Elite / Apex / Concept / Halo level and most likely priced to match.
Better start saving.

I expect the 36mm aberration may last a year or two, and watches will gradually increase in size again. It will depend on sales volumes, because the alternative to buying a 36mm watch may be not buying a watch at all, with no FOMO.
I look forward to this prospect. Im hoping a Ti 300Pro Cosc in 40mm with that fat lumed triangle from the concept in it. That would scratch that Tudor P39 itch for a 3rd of the price.

A new and different hand set will be welcome. The current ones let the watch down for me.
I found the old c60 handset to be very Bremont. The new ones, while better, are kinda Seiko. Personally, I like the minute and second hands, not so much the hour hand.
As an aside, I've been thinking about a tool watch version of the 300 line recently. I'd really like to see that. Would want drilled lugs, case hardening, a one-piece steel bezel that's fully indexed... And I love a crown at 9 o'clock.
