Anyone else notice this little gem @MikePearson55 shared on Instagram? It’s a bespoke watch for a watch group in the US. What grabbed my attention was the bezel! Has CW done a bezel like this before? I’m assuming they have, as it would be one helluva bespoke job otherwise.
They should use this bezel more. I’ve cropped the screen grab just to highlight the bezel.

Re: This bezel!
Being a GMT watch, they've likely used the new C60 300 GMT as a base.

Similar to the Atoll?

Re: This bezel!
I like it, but think the 300 bezels are a bit narrow and would be better without the inner ring. The proportions seem better to me with the smaller case sizes.

@Bahnstormer_vRS and @Trs1982, I knew it looked familiar. Now I feel like a bit of an idiot.

It’s OK Drew, we’re used to it now…….

Maybe when the white Aqua Terra goes I'll grab another.

Re: This bezel!
I run the Midwest Watch Club that had the opportunity to work with CW on the above watch! It was an amazing experience and was honored to have the opportunity.
My first post on the forum and the MwWC watch will be my first CW! I've very excited.
Look forward to getting to know all of you.
