Is this the new Trident that Loupe Mag was foreshadowing. Or is something still coming.

I want to buy a trident watch, but if a new one is still coming out I’ll wait. The bronze one doesn’t quite fit me. If not, any idea on when it might come out?

I doubt it. Loupe showed a quite different hand set.

^^^^ Although I have no idea on timing other than it ought to be soon(ish), there was much discussion in this extensive thread earlier in the year;-

Coming: the ultimate C60 Trident Pro 300.

According to the Esquire article in another post, I would assume that the new watch is coming in August.

And Mike F. has said the same in multiple YouTube interviews including the CWL 20th anniversary video: "Something BIG is coming in August".

To me, that means Titanium. They have used similar words when describing the 12Ti and 12x.

One of the you tube reviewers (I forget which) was discussing a CW watch, (in the last few days, and it might have been this bronze) and mentioned he had been told there was going to be a new release in the next couple of weeks, but he could say no more. I think that might have been it. :D

[Edit]
I meant it wasn't the bronze, or whatever existing watch he was talking about, it was another watch being released in the very near future.

SH21 Pro 300 in titanium, would be my guess. It would be toolish, light and big, all at the same time. The price would also be ‘not small’. Probably be a version similar to the C60 Apex.

Actually…I bet you’re 100% right. Makes perfect sense. They would want to get the new SH21 into multiple watches. Darn, the 12-X is 4K. not sure I want to spend near that for my next dive watch.

I think that the SH21 in this thing is up for debate. It will definitely be COSC whatever the outcome. A non SH21 would be cheaper of course.

I do think it will be Titanium.

Don't forget the 12X is a skeletonized SH21 too. Thus making it more expensive than a standard SH21.

An SW300 powered version would be the one I'd go for...

I like the idea of the SH21, but it's size puts it in the concept bracket, for me.

It's easy for me to say "not long now boys" with that naive air of optimism hahaha

What we really need is one of those "Watch your emails" messages from @Kip

Honestly, I've got itchy hands and my credit card knows. Two watches at CW for service/repair, two watches in a pipeline, an LE Sealander GMT and the Twelve X and somehow I'm impatient!

I'm a newbie and still do not own a CW watch.
I am going to the NYC event on 8/1 and hope maybe there will be a preview (but probably not).

I too am hoping for a Trident Pro 300 Titanium but if not I will probably pick up this pair...I think it would be fun to own both.
