So, I finally pounced on the red bezel C60 42mm and it arrived yesterday. It’s interesting that old stock got the new box. I’m not complaining, just a little surprised. The watch is, as expected, amazing. I absolutely did not need it, I’ve waffled over wanting it, and now I have yet another, “too many,” to choose for my wearing pleasure. I’ll get to sizing it later as the latest summer storm damage will take some time to clear.

whoa. Glad no one was hurt.

Ok, in daylight, my NN Twelve looks pristine as well! Very happy.

[ADDED] wow, titanium is really light. Have to get used to it. I've shortened the bracelet - thankfully the screws in the links weren't tightly screwed in, so removing them was not difficult.

The 36mm case size is a good fit for my 15.5++ cm wrist.

I'll post more thoughts after I've worn it for a while and have taken some pics. The dial is very pretty, though!

I'll now fess up that I bought a blue C60 GMT in the sale at 35% off. Described as NN, but unmarked from what I can see. I have a few weeks to be sure, as I don't really need another watch. I do think the bezels are less shiny than they appear in the renderings, and look rather more classy as a result. I was sent a red one like yours mistakenly a year or so ago, and I remember thinking the same thing then.

I hope you didn't get any structural property damage, and it's just fallen trees.

Not sure if anyone has noticed, but stuff does keep appearing on the sale page still, albeit very briefly. There was a blue c63 on there for an hour or so yesterday afternoon. Guessing it got snapped up. Wonder if they're returns from the sale?

Sorry to see your storm damage and really hope there's nothing beyond clearing fallen trees.

I too fell on one of these C60 red bezels, I didn't "need" it but thought it was good value for money. On the wrist/in the hand, it's a really sharp thing with great depth of colour and contrasts.

Good grief…

There is still a C12Ti 40 AG in the clearance. Does no one have good taste. :problem:

It’s a far better watch than the stuff that was originally listed for sale and seemed to sell straight away. :)

I was surprised it stayed so long. Very tempted but not at moment. Waiting to see what happens in August with talk of a new trident.

Interesting! More items have been added to the CW Clearance page. I am seeing an Atoll, Moonglow & Bronze Dune among others.

There are a couple of C60 Trident Pro 600, pity they are the 42mm as that would be too big for me, but the discounts look good.

@Devon
I think it might be one watch, listed with 2 different straps. There were 4 dunes earlier on, but all strap variants of the same watch, which might have been the same thing.

They seem to have disappeared for now but will probably reappear later as that seems to be happening on the sale page.

This just popped up:
C1 Moonglow - Nearly New
