Re: C65 Trident Diver Automatic
Impressive that CW fit the SW200, rotor and all, into the same 11.55mm thick case. Many thanks Guy.Bahnstormer_vRS wrote: ↑Sun Jan 20, 2019 9:54 pmThe C65 Trident Diver (handwound) uses exactly the same case as the C65 Trident Automatic.Bident wrote:Are the dimensions for the C65 Trident Automatic identical to the C65 Trident Diver? The YouTube video is quite blurry, but I think the case thickness reads the same 11.55mm which seems unlikely given the thicker SW200 movement.
I’m assuming the Pepsi C65 GMT has the same dimensions as the oringal C65 GMT?
Thanks for any responses.

Thanks Guy. Same case; do you know if it’s the same case back or a slightly deeper version?Bident wrote:Impressive that CW fit the SW200, rotor and all, into the same 11.55mm thick case. Many thanks Guy.

Same case with the same caseback.
CW deliberately made the C65 case and caseback for the automatic. With the handwound, there is therefore some room to spare.

Re: C65 Trident Diver Automatic
Wow, if it is the same price as the handwound, and therefore much cheaper than the Oris 65, then I am saving for this model. Love it.Thegreyman wrote: ↑Sun Jan 20, 2019 7:06 pmMick, just reading about the watch in the latest edition of Loupe.
The article mentions that the auto (SW200 movement) will sell at exactly the same price as the handwound.

Re: C65 Trident Diver Automatic
Guy obviously has the current info on the caseback of the new C65 Automatic as he was at the GTG and saw the specs, but just as an FYI CW did already change the caseback between the C65 Vintage Diver and the C65 GMT to allow for the automatic movement in the GMT. If you look at the CW site it shows the C65 diver as 11.55mm height and the C65 GMT as 12.05mm height, a difference of 0.5mm. I own both watches and the difference if barely perceptible. I'm assuming the ETA movement in the GMT movement must be a little taller than the Selitta movement they are using in the new C65 automatic, which is why they made the GMT caseback a little taller.

Re: C65 Trident Diver Automatic
CW's website for the C65 Trident Diver says: " A slim movement at only 3.35mm high." The ETA website for the 2893-2 movement says its height is 4.1mm, so indeed, the ETA is taller by 0.75mm. That the difference in height at 0.75mm is greater than the difference in case thickness of 0.5mm between the C65 Trident Diver and the C65 Trident GMT foots with Guy's earlier comment that CW deliberately made the C65 Trident Diver case thick enough for the forthcoming C65 Trident Automatic so the same caseback could be used.mvlow wrote: ↑Mon Jan 21, 2019 4:19 pmGuy obviously has the current info on the caseback of the new C65 Automatic as he was at the GTG and saw the specs, but just as an FYI CW did already change the caseback between the C65 Vintage Diver and the C65 GMT to allow for the automatic movement in the GMT.

Re: C65 Trident Diver Automatic
The SW200 is actually 4.6mm thick (0.5mm thicker than the 2893), so there must be room to spare in the GMT as well.

Re: C65 Trident Diver Automatic
Whether it's 11.5 or 12.0mm, to all intents and purposes, essentially the same and a very nice case diameter and height. I agree this is quite similar to the Oris 65 and will be about half the price, arguably a real bargain.

C65 Trident Diver Automatic
Watches with a GMT movement have to also provide a little bit of extra height between the dial and the crystal to cater for an additional (GMT) hand stacked on the same shaft. I don’t know whether that accounts for any of the overall height difference or not, but it may...
Nonetheless, half a mm is bugger all

Re: C65 Trident Diver Automatic
Very smart! Now do I purchase that as my third trident or should I wait in case they release a bronze version in the future?!?
Re: C65 Trident Diver Automatic
Love this black dial with vintage lume blobs/batons markers. Reminds me of Tudor BB 58. My next purchase definitely.

Re: C65 Trident Diver Automatic
Does anyone who attended the recent GTG know if CW mentioned the Khaki dial as a future colo(u)r for the upcoming C65 Trident Automatic and/or the C65 Trident GMT? Having a blue C65 Trident Diver, I think either model in Khaki would be the most appealing version.
