Nice the see real images of the case profile, I’m glad it takes the sculpted looks of the C65s I also like the way the bezel slopes, in my experience this makes it less likely to catch in cuffs etc and so still be able to slide under even if it is relatively deep still. Can anyone tell me if the cry...

Sticking with the Trident II theme, this one for me today. Since the weather is warmer here it’s also time for a few funky NATO straps to jazz it up a bit
For those who celebrate it, have a good Easter,

Case side profiles look more like a C65 than C60, lovely!

I tried the bronze edged bezel Oris in an AD last week. Loved the subtle hit of bronze (and would like to see how it’s patina develops over time) and the 40mm size was pretty decent on my wrist. A couple of thinks put me off though. Firstly was the bronze. The one I tried had clearly been on and off...

I have pretty much the same wrist size as you and I can easily pull of the GMT. I also have the Diver C65 that has exactly the same case and these two get a lot more wrist time ime then my smaller, 38mm Trident C60 600. I used to abhor anything over 39mm (I put too much store in what online “experts...

I’d always go for raw. I saw a pair side by side on a showroom visit at the back and of last year, as well as a third one that Declan had that had started raw and been tried on by (many) previous showroom visitors. This “used” one had, to me, by far the best finish and patina. It looked old, used an...

Ah, what a choice to make! I currently have the C60 (Vintage) and both the C65 Divers (hand wind and auto versions) all three are in black. Many, many moons ago I also owned (briefly) a blue Seamaster Bond. I second most of what Lavaine has said above, especially as far as water resistance goes. I a...

@stefs Very nice watch, and a perfect match on that strap. I am thinking of adding the Ranger to my collection as I am very drawn to the simple dial layout. However, I seem to recall it has pretty long lugs (50mm?) and at 41mm diameter as well I fear it will swamp my tiny wrist. May I ask what wrist...

Mine for today - C65 GMT on a chocolate brown, vintage oak leather strap

Thanks, guys. Looks pretty ideal to me.
Can’t wait so see it in the flesh!

As well as the hands and general layout of the dial, I am keen to hear more about the side profile - will it be thick, deep and slab-sided like the current Trident, or will it be slimmer, sculpted and have a variety of finished like the C65 Divers?

Anyone got any detail on this?

One question from me and it is based on a recent scan of the CW site and the absence of availability of 38mm C65 Trident Vintage, 38mm C60 600s (aside from bronze) and 38mm C60 300s. Question: Will CW continue to produce diver/sports watches in sizes under 40mm, and will there ever be an in-house, C...

I’d dearly love to see some images. Unfortunately I’m not a member of either FaceSnap or InstaBook so missed the cerfuffle that must have happened earlier. This is definitely on my radar and I’m already setting funds aside for the launch date. 40mm size, here I come! Anyone got an idea on its total ...

I’m not so hot in colour combinations, but I seem to remember the blue/black bezel and dial combo is pretty rare. Passing colour combinations by, having had a look in CW’s website I notice that there are no 38mm C60 300s left for sale. I’m guessing they are running the stock of all 38mm sizes down b...

Just to add a thousand words to an image... This is a side profile of my C65 Trident Diver Auto 291ACD18-9F4B-453E-9F51-11D6140B99B4.jpeg 89B38054-E1A7-479A-9D17-B18B318F43BE.jpeg As you can see, the sapphire crystal has at least 1mm extra height above the bezel. Add to that the thin profile of the ...
