Re: C60 Trident Lumiere
The more I look at these, and they are quite nice, the more more I realize I ought to wear my Graphite more. It’s money already spent.

I'd love to see some shots from further away of the full arm/body, curious what the overall wrist presence is like!
Re: C60 Trident Lumiere
Think this wears quite similar to U50 which works from 6.5” -> upwards. Thats how I feel comparing l2l and heigth.joshwhite wrote:I'd love to see some shots from further away of the full arm/body, curious what the overall wrist presence is like!
Would love to see more wristpics

Re: C60 Trident Lumiere
Looks really cool on the Black/Orange Aquaflex Rubber strap. I’d not considered such a strap until now, but I might need to invest in one.

Re: C60 Trident Lumiere
A little over a week ago I posted pictures of the grey and orange Lumière dials on the combos of the Bader bracelet and black/orange rubber. I quote myself as saying at the time: “The Orange rubber strap I thought might just be too much so didn’t opt to add that one.”
Well, after a week of travel, now coming home and going through all the paperwork to take pictures for my records, I noticed a little something in one of the boxes. Lo and behold it was an orange strap! I feel like a bit of a wally as I completely forgot I had ordered it, even going so far as to ask other members how they were finding it and adding (another) one to my cart.
It feels like a free strap at this point and I’m pretty pleased with it. After a week of wear with the black/orange I’m not sure whether I yet prefer the full orange and suspect it will be a bit much for permanent wear, but it certainly stands out.
Full picture collection of my six options below, with bracelet now resized as well.

Re: C60 Trident Lumiere
@timepieces_and_bags They both look great but for me they both excel on the bracelet. That pop and fade of the dial is made more prominent by the grey hue of the titanium all around. For all day comfort though I imagine the straps could be a preferable option.

Re: C60 Trident Lumiere
Thanks Pat. The grey on the bracelet is 100% the right call for me. The orange I’m still not sure; I've never had a bright dial watch on a bracelet before so maybe I’m just getting used to it, but a bracelet feels more formal and so maybe a little incongruous with the dial.Redpat wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2024 5:03 pm @timepieces_and_bags They both look great but for me they both excel on the bracelet.

The answer is to wear them more and see! And hope that I don’t have to buy a second Bader (unless I find that I’ve already ordered one…)

For me, the orange dial really works with the back and orange strap. Looks perfect to me.timepieces_and_bags wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2024 5:54 pmThanks Pat.

Trying not to buy any more watches...
Re: C60 Trident Lumiere
Had to do a doubletake here, the angle makes the grey look so much bigger than the orange that I thought they were two different sizestimepieces_and_bags wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2024 9:15 pm Apologies for poor lighting, not setting time and not yet fitting bracelet, just couldn’t wait to fire some pictures off to the forum! And maybe I need to revisit that “how to take a good photo” thread…
Best,

Interesting and balanced review if you can get beyond the pizza.
But why oh why oh why oh why cannot a professional reviewer align the minute hand with a marker at the top of the minute?
I’m not normally OCD but that infuriates me because it’s so easy to get right!

Re: C60 Trident Lumiere
That's the trouble isn't it. You think long and hard, buy a watch, and then you're looking for the next fix immediately. It can be really hard to stop.
And many are really desirable.

@timepieces_and_bags
When I saw your black Lumiere on the orange strap, I realized it was surprisingly similar to the watch I am wearing, which I've just posted in Non CW OTD, and then realized that @rkovars black dial PO in the Non CW thread is also similar as well.
