Eleventh straight day of wearing this (although I switched to the rubber strap halfway through) since I received it. One of my longest honeymoon periods, as it is an awesome watch. IMHO, of course. :)

I picked this one up 4 December - still running, I still haven’t been able to observe the mainsprings powered down. :)

A great everyday watch, suitable for all activities. Although I would likely put it on the rubber strap if I get around to revisiting the scenery in the background this year.

My apologies for using an old (blurred) photo and not 1 specifically taken today but I have so much going on today that I probably wouldn't have time to put this on here unless I do it this way.

This is my 38mm C60 Trident 600 that I bought at the CW showroom exactly 10 years ago today.

Originally it was on a black bader deployant strap but when that started looking scruffy I switched to the bracelet and it's been on that for a few years now (I've kept the strap though). For its first 6 years it was my main daily wear but my watch wearing habits have changed in the last few years so it doesn't get worn a lot now, the previous wear being a month ago on 27 December 2024.

I'll touch wood while I'm typing this bit - it hasn't been serviced yet since purchase (that might be considered bad or good by some on here I suppose) but still keeps great time and starts moving immediately after some gentle arm movements.

and here it is with my white dialled 38mm that had the bracelet and watch case brushed (by the previous owner on this Forum).

I think the Mk2 C60s are a great watch and the 38mm models wear very well for size on me even though I have a biggish wrist (I had to add 2 or 3 links to the bracelet on the white dial). Unfortunately recently I had to turn down a Forum member's thoughtful offer to buy his blue/blue model due to my change of watch wearing and not having justifiably spare funds and I also missed out on a white dialled/blue bezel that was on WardHoard about 6 months ago.

First day wearing the C63 Sealander 39mm GMT that I picked up in the sale. Very happy with it. The strap is still a bit stiff so the watch isn’t settling right on the wrist but that’ll fix itself with time.

I was on the fence of black vs white dial but think black was the right call (for me, of course) as legibility is great. I also lack anything with a black dial in my small collection.

What a cool combo. The more I see of the older models the more I like. That logo, hands, and wave dial make a great looking piece.

This is my first experience with the Seta leather strap. The palette is nicely cohesive.
