C65 Trident Automatic
£695 - £760
Combining the rugged ‘60s appearance of our acclaimed C65 Trident Diver with the convenience of a self-winding Swiss-made movement, the C65 Trident Automatic offers more than just a mechanical upgrade: with the adoption of raised circular indexes and a refined dial aesthetic, the Automatic has its own iconic look and feel.

I love this watch.

Re: C65 Trident Automatic
The C65 case and overall design is a delight and CW are to be congratulated for creating it. It's so versatile and I'm sure further different options are planned or are potentially possible, a Speedmaster style auto Chrono for example if it could fit the case.
The cleaner and less busy bezel is outstanding and I like the blobs which is unusual for me.I 'm sure it'll be a winner.
9 o'clock still prevents a purchase by me as discussed on other threads and a black date on a blue dial is 1 of those minor details that shouldn't happen. I realise the financial benefit of 1 colour date wheel for all dial colours but black on blue sticks out somewhat to prevent a perfect watch face.

Re: C65 Trident Automatic
Agreed, 100%! This is the one for me. It's just a matter of when. I'm hoping it's still available when I'm in a position to add it, and the C65 GMT, to my collection.

Re: C65 Trident Automatic
That’s one pretty watch.
I’d go for the black dial on a bracelet I think, but I’ll probably wait until the Trident3 comes out so I can compare them side by side before parting with any cash.

Re: C65 Trident Automatic
I didn't expect to like it from the teaser pics. I was also worried that the blobs would be too 'homagey' but I reckon they've pulled it off.

Re: C65 Trident Automatic
I’ll echo comments that this is one lovely looking piece. I’m particularly keen on the slim edge profile of the case. Funnily enough, the logo at nine no longer bothers me like it used to.

Re: C65 Trident Automatic
That's where I'm at, I might well buy one of the two so want to see the Trident first. But leaning towards the slimmer C65 which I think looks lovely. Probably the blue dial on the bracelet as I have plenty of black dialled watches already.

Re: C65 Trident Automatic
I do like the blue and pricing is a steal. Pity about the black date wheel so I'll have to cogitate on that a bit.

Re: C65 Trident Automatic
Just not keen on the blob indices. The rest is great.

Re: C65 Trident Automatic
Just clicked the button on the blue w/ camel strap.
Oddly enough the black does nothing for me but blue looks great.
Opposite with the handwound version. Like the black more than the blue.
