C60 Sapphire owners...

Does yours ‘wind’ when screwing in the crown? Mine doesn’t. I can’t recall if it ever did. I gave it around 30 winds and now it clicks as it winds (clutch?) and once the crown is depressed to screw in, it seems to disengage completely and screw in silently. Seems to run fine..? Thank you for any rea...

C60 Sapphire Black strap options

Hi all, I have a Sapphire Black incoming (pics to follow!), can’t wait. It’s my second CW, after my well-worn C65 I bought on the forum a couple of years ago. I hear that good strap options for the Sapphire Black are hard to come by, and many just don’t look right. It’s coming on the rubber (I could...

Re: C65 Trident GMT - Pepsi

Wow, I live and learn. Fair enough. I guess CW’s transparency policy really does hold up. Kudos.

Re: C60 Trident Mk3 - pictures..!

I'm desperate to see real-world pics of the mk3. It will ultimately decide whether I hold off - or buy a current model C60 or 65...

Thank you, much appreciated! I must say, it’s seems very friendly around here. And lots of good quality info being shared. Cheers Chris.

Re: C65 Trident GMT - Pepsi

Beautiful, IMO. But £200 more than a C65 auto? Is that the price differential in the movement?

Re: Trident C60 Pro 600 vs. C65 Auto

Thank you all for the warm welcome and informative responses.

The discussion is tipping me towards the C65. This surprises me as I thought people would be recommending to the C60 as the ‘original’ CW and a safer bet.

And a new C60 is due? I had no idea! What do we know about it?

It will be my most expensive watch, and will probably remain so for many years. My real desire was for an Omega Seamaster, but I simply cannot s...
