I voted for the c60GMT as the next forum watch, however I don't fancy any of these designs.
The closest if I was really pushed would be the black and yellow face, but not the "split" colour bezel.

AND
I would want the new bracelet! :D
(assuming its chunky, diver ratchet etc etc)

Really like the red. Might be better with a darker dial though

I'm very attracted to option D actually, closely followed by B.

I quite like the combo of round and line hour markers, something different!

The red gets my vote for now. But to be honest they all have an appeal except for D. Having seen the first photos in the gallery of the Tridents they do appear to be a whole lot better in the flesh (as usual).

Would be nice to see a round date window to match the other markers and really set it apart from the normal versions though. ;)

I prefer the existing Trident models.
No more Quartz (except when I cannot resist).

C is vile, B might give me nightmares.
I like the bezel colours of the Red and Green, but the dial colours, as rendered, don't seem to suit them at all. The red is the nearest to acceptable for me, but I've gone for the final option.

I quite like the red bezel, but I don't like the dial colour on that one. The rest look like we are trying too hard to be different.

I had to go for the "not my cup of tea" option, sorry.

Unless Chris is going to release a teal C60 soon, why don't we go for that as the LE?

I have to agree with Downer, a nice watch "blinged up". A watch of this type is not jewelry, IMHO. The red dial makes reading the time difficult as the markers and hands are indistinct. The yellow markers on the orange combo are a colour too far. The green has some integrity but too much green.

I voted for not my cup of tea, I don't like any of them. Either of the standard GMT's are fantastic looking watches and I'm very tempted, but not by any of these.

If these are the candidate for the LE then I don't think they are going to work, for me what made lasts years LE a success was the fact is was only a subtle change to the dial and a quartz to auto upgrade.

Voted for Red Option A. But I think it needs a darker dial to really be to my completely to my taste. I can't say I care for any of the others at all. Perhaps the green could work, the current rendering of the green is too 'in your face'

Where there is the marker saying chrome pointing at the lugs, does that mean the whole case will be polished? (If so I think thats a nice idea, means I can polish it to hell when I scratch it) But if this is the case, the bracelet would need to be completely different (I'm not sure I would buy on the current bracelet anyway).

How about a design with a PVD case/bracelet? Would that work on the Trident?

I like the red and the green, but not as set out here. Make the face red or green and put a ?black bezel on it. The red bezel just looks odd, the all green is too much. I do like the green colour on the face a lot though.

Just my two penn'orth.

Problem is, I have a GMT on order, what do I do if we're goin to make an LE??

These are slightly sickly (although i see where your coming from with the "vancouver one" i.e A, it needs adjusting though and to pull off B it should be made in PVD). Not my cuppa reallly.



Any chance of a C8 6498 selection? (with a combo of brushed and polished surfaces on the case please) Watch people fall in love then! :D

(i recently sold my C8 and whilst i miss it a little and like the ideals of the company, i just cant find anything else in the range designed well enough for me to part money)
I miss all the great things that may never be.
