Height of approx 16.5mm with a lug-to-lug of 54mm. A beast (monster) of a watch.
Maybe price is a factor of the watch mass?
Relatively the same, + or - a whisker, as the C60 Trident MkII with SH21 and the C60 Trident Pro Chronograph.

Oh good lawd, I just noticed something.
It is a black date wheel. There is literally no other black on this thing.
Why would anyone spend this kind of cash and not get a nothing date wheel.
Specs are great but geez, attention to detail people.

Is that a statement or a question?
No matter. The C60 Trident Elite 1000 had a black date wheel, as does the rest of the blue dial C60 Trident Mk3 versions, and it hasn't stopped those selling well (Elite is a 300 piece LE and is Sold out).
If it is a question; why would people buy it? Well; I am buying it because I like the watch as a whole and I do not have OCD over small items.
Now where are my credit card details?

Sorry, I was thrown off, couldn't think straight!
Question is the answer. I understand Omega did it, but that doesn't make it right. If it were dark blue it would still pop. Make it blue with orange as the date and it will pop as well. You just can't make it a color that are not on the watch anywhere else, makes it look like a parts bin job.
CW went to a lot of effort to make this a cool watch, but I just can't understand why this detail was overlooked. It is not due to cost, the retail of this thing is high so cost is not a factor. It appears to be a custom date wheel anyway, so make it match!
I understand many people don't care and I'm cool with that. If it were my company I would have done it differently, especially because the cost is not significant.
