Trident

I can only tell you that this is a Work in Progress and that it is meant to be a quartz movement.

Shame about the quartz, but maybe something we can work on for a future forum LE. :D
No more Quartz (except when I cannot resist).

Looks good, as always would better with and auto in it.

I'm wondering about the choice of name though Trident - chewing gum and nuclear submarines, I don't get it?

Since it's a C6/C60 case it will take an auto movement. Another reason why it'd be a good LE candidate. :D

I think it's a reference to the shape on the end of the second hand?


The more I look at it, the more I like the colour of the bezel.. :2thumbs:

I think Trident is a good strong name for a diver. The PRS2 Dreadnought was a sell out and still a sought after watch. :D

Dump the onion and this'll look good.

(of course, in 6 months I'll have changed my mind... let's see...)

I quite like the name Trident to be honest.

Yep - like this one. As others have said I would prefer it if it was an auto - but a future LE perhaps. Also like the bezel colour - wonder if there will be choices of colour.

That looks really, really nice. Shame the wacth strap is the standard CWL SS bracelet. It would be nice to have a different style.

I agree, it is time for a new style C4/C6 steel strap.

Like it and would probably go for it depending on the price mainly because it is a Quartz!
I'd have that as a perfect watch for work that would get knocked about and totally abused and go where an auto would dare not go.

I think that looks pretty good, but would concur with the general feeling that an auto would be nice!!

Trident is a good strong seagoing name.......and the weapon of choice of Poseidon!! :devil: :)
