Great ‘point’! :lol:

Thanks Guy for the other reply on PR also.

I picked up a gorgeous Prototype in the recent Exclusive CW Forum Prototype Sale.

C60 Trident GMT MK3 Red Bezel.
White flags logo which is also lumed and #0000 serial number.
Also has a matt dark grey dial compared to the usual glossy version.
The Trident second hand is also the same as the MK2 style which is fuller and more stylized than the standard MK3 second hand.
The hour hand is slightly larger too.

The watch is in mint condition !
Very very happy with it.
I'll get a bracelet for it at some stage I reckon.

That's a cracker, Ferg. I think the matt dial is a big improvement. I find the standard C60s too glossy and reflective, which is why I went for the Ombre, but this resolves the problem in a different way. :thumbup:

Loving that white on matte black, hour hand looks the right length to me so maybe everyone else's is wrong :lol:

I like the white flag logo. Out of interest how much was that prototype GMT?

I wonder if this is maybe a sign that the contrasting flag motif will become more prominent on the watches going forward, and the name less so.

The lumed motif looks great on that dial. A winning future combo for CW there.

NB> Photos were taken in a hasty moment sat in my car this afternoon; I'll aim to get some better ones taken soon (including a lume pic).

Stunning piece of kit, Guy. I haven’t been able to get this watch out of my head since you posted these pics and every now & then I revisit them…is this normal behaviour? 🤷🏼 Best regards, Phil.
