Looks very nice, but I was already thinking I now have too many blue dive watches. So probably not for me!

The lume on the rubber strap though…I really hope they sell that separately soon!

Nice to see a C60 return, especially with the SW300 movement.

And a 42mm case👍, which floats my boat far more than the latest trend of smaller sized watches.

Picked up an Orange Sapphire from CWs most recent clearance sale, so I won't be venturing any further with this one, for now at least.

Is this the same as the last with a piece of coloured plastic over the sapphire? if so they do not make it clear on the website.

Getawayfromme!

I almost slipped on an earlier generation of blue C60 chronometer with see-through dial....

Very nice. Not for me, but very nice.

I suspect the lumed strap will be a ‘love it or hate it’ feature. Totally unnecessary but it does look pretty cool.
I post a few watch pictures now and then to a little Instagram account - 15 followers and counting!

I want a strap, not fussed about the watch.

It is encouraging seeing CW being more playful with models though. Bold is good.

Wait, just stop! I haven’t finished being indecisive about the clearance listings. :D

The new C60 looks great. I don’t need a new diver so I’m on the sidelines - for now.

Specs state 1mm thinner than C60 Trident Pro of the same size. Different case?

^^^ I would say so. The SW300 allows for a slimmer design. The SW300 is 1mm thinner than the 200.

I'd say this was a return to form for CW. Something a bit muscular and sporty for a change. I quite like it but want to see it in person before making up my mind.

I like the bezel design. I like how they’re keeping it in the same vein of the standard trident pro 300 with the white inner ring, but still different enough to be its own thing.

Very nice. I think I would have preferred a no date and a skeletonised movement.

Would like to see in the flesh though.
