Mine differs dependent on the light......

The red is fabulous imo. Don't worry about matching straps, just where it on the bracelet!! Although there are plenty of suitable straps that I have found.

Go with black if you need to be conservative. Otherwise, red all the way. I follow the same rules for my clothing and footwear; too. :D

I would choose the red bezel. Subtle but different. I have the previous version of the trident in all red on a braclet and it is surprisingly pretty universal in when you can wear it. A black face with a red bezel would be even more versatile.

Good luck and let us know how you get on

Red would be my choice, tag heuer have released an aquaracer with this coloured bezel so they must think it is going to be popular.

I think you'd need to compare the TAG Aquaracer with the CW 300 Red as it looks a very different shade of red with an aluminium bezel and it's quartz also (for £1350).

I have the black bezel with the white face and am now currently looking for a red bezel with the black face. So, I would say red!

I love my Red bezel white dial. I prefer the extra flair I get from the red. I have a few different trident variations so for me the Red is a nice change. Image

Ive been waffling on the red/black or the black/black for a day or two now. Im glad to see i am not the only one with this struggle! I think the red/black might be the way to go after seeing more of the pictures in the reference gallery and this thread. However, there will probably come a day down the road where my collection will hopefully have both :)
