C60 Trident colors

Post by Kip »

Several of you have asked me about colors for the C60......

Although no official timetable at this moment, the plan according to Chris is to be introduced in 2 stages.....

Teal in the Trident Pro and orange in the gmt to start....

If accepted well....then reversed out late spring ....

That's the latest word I have regarding colors.

I took the teal bezel off one of the early Trident pics, and welded it onto the latest image of the Trident PRO....

Thanks for the teal preview downer.
I'd buy that if it were quartz - no, seriously. I have enough auto divers, but I could do with a grab and go one, especially one that looks like that.

Nice. But the teal needs to be tealier and the black needs to be blacker and the silver needs to be very shiny. Then it will be perfect. :lol:

Nice.

I agree the teal colour could be richer/brighter.

Maybe I just am not that good at identifying colors, but when I heard about a teal version, I thought it would look more like the C70DBR1. I think it would be nice to have the same dial color as on that watch as well.

Teal is a blue-green whereas the sample ones look more like a light RAF type blue which is also nice.

Some teal image samples
