Nice watch. Looks big for your wrist.

Re: My beater came today.
Very nice
It's very big and rather shiny for a beater though and depending what you intend to beat in it I'm not sure an auto is the best choice...

Re: My beater came today.
The Trident is a CW classic model. When it also has the discontinued red bezel and even better the SH21 then you have a very fine watch there.
I certainly wouldn't call this one a beater either (although I'm sure that was a tongue in cheek comment!), I guess that depends what else is in your collection though!

I'm only calling it a beater because Its huge on me and It will probably be scratch a bit when I wear it often especially right now in the summer timeThegreyman wrote: ↑Tue May 25, 2021 8:07 pm The Trident is a CW classic model.

Re: My beater came today.
Well it is meant to be worn, as long as the scratches and dents have memories attached they are part of the ownership experience. Glad to hear it's not in for an intentionally tough life

Re: My beater came today.
I think you landed a very nice one! Especially for a “beater” watch.
