It looks good but between the original and the sealander it’s all too similar for me. I can’t see it being easy to market a fat or thin option.

You are out of luck, all of the launch colours are already up.

Wow! Here for the ‘soft launch’ without trying! :lol:
It’s all looking really good. I have a lot to think about - at the moment it’s bezel or no bezel :D :thumbup:

The 36mm Sealander is cheaper than the 38mm Trident 300.

It is.... it’s also a great looking 36mm watch. I feel that for most of the time I’ve been here I’ve followed the company without buying any of their watches. In the last few years that has turned right around for me. The SC and the sandstorm duo are exactly my idea of slightly different watches that I enjoy. And now they’ve nailed two white dialled watches that I covet too. I’m enjoying being in the thick of CW and what they’re up to :thumbup:

How tall is a sealander compared to a new 300?

On a dive watch, with a screw in crow, and a movement with a PR of 38 hours? :problem:

Really, you seriously think manual would have been better? :lol:

Next you will be saying it would have been better as a quartz! :)

Haha. Point taken, I just mean to achieve the thin profile.

At least on the smallest models, 36mm Sealander - 10.75mm, T300 = 11mm

That’s the Sealander GMT, the auto is 11.25mm thick.

Now that the cat is out of the bag, can we discuss some things that were talked about on the call yesterday? I have a question I couldn't stick around to ask.
