C60 Trident Pro 600 - in orange bezel
As per title - Do you guys know if there is an automatic version of Trident with orange bezel? as the c60 300 version? I can't find it on the website. Perhaps quartz is my only choice...

Re: C60 Trident Pro 600 - in orange bezel
There's not.
Reason being that the Quartz Trident has an aluminium bezel, same as the MkI Trident, which can be coloured Orange well.
However, there are technical difficulties with getting an orange ceramic bezel, as used on the Trident Pro 600 (MKII Auto), with the correct and satisfactory hue of orange. CWL decided not to put this into production.
There is a prototype, orange ceramic bezel, Trident, which was sold and is owned by a Forum Contributor; can't remember who. The orange bezel looks pale and 'washed out'.
Hope this helps.

Seems fine to me.
I prefer the word subtle (just like me ), rather than washed out.

Fair enough
Still love the orange so much I might have to get the quartz one

Was there an orange bezel GMT MK1? I seem to remember seeing one somewhere?

Washed out isn't the best description. Looks brighter than I remember. Apologies.

Re: C60 Trident Pro 600 - in orange bezel
It’s interesting to note that Omega, who started the current orange bezel trend with the first Planet Ocean, still make the current orange PO with an aluminium bezel, even though the other colours have been ceramic for ages.

^^^^^ No need to apologise Guy.
It gave me an excuse to post a couple of pics.

Re: C60 Trident Pro 600 - in orange bezel
I have a PO 8500 in the Orange. I do wish it had a ceramic bezel, but there is clearly an issue getting it right if they can't get it sorted.
I also have a CW Trident Pro 38mm with the Orange aluminium and I still prefer that over every other Trident I've seen. The CW is what I wear when I want to wear my Omega but there's a chance it will get damaged, aka Holidays abroad. Its like a little Omega PO homage watch for me.

That is how i found CW brand and Trident. I wanted a orange PO but it's out of my price range.

Re: C60 Trident Pro 600 - in orange bezel
Omega cracked the orange ceramic, but have only used it on their platinum PO as far as I'm aware.
Possibly the manufacturing process is too expensive to allow it's use on the standard steel range. Or maybe it's for exclusivity on the above model. Who knows?? (someone at Omega )
