I quite like the orange bezel version but not the orange leather strap :shock:

As for the blue version, I'm not a fan and as mentioned by others, it definitely appears to closely resemble the scooter FLE.

I reckon a Pepsi bezel version would have gone down a storm and not upset anyone.....nevermind.

Well I love both of them.
I was unable to obtain the C60 FLE blue unit last year as I was too late in reserving one. So for me better late than never. So this year my spending plan is as follows.

Mid March: C60 Blue
May: FLE 2013 (number 23)
July: C60 Orange (for holiday)

I just need to work some overtime (not tell the wife) and save.

Happy Days :thumbup:
Life is always full of surprises
C60 - 300 Green, C65 Sandhurst; 1962 9ct Omega Auto; Tudor Black Bay GMT; Tag Heuer Monza; Omega Aqua Terra Blue; Rolex Explorer 114270

Gotta love a man with a plan! :thumbup:

I've just ordered my orange Trident on steel. My first brand new CW after a year of owning a second hand C8 Pilot.

Won't be my last if the C8 is anything to go by. :D

Sorry to disappoint you, but the teal has never been produced. Chris was never happy with the true color. :(

You will just have to select another one.

Thanks for clarifying and to me it is a shame because the current blue just doesn't do it for me, to each their own I guess

Teal is a very interesting option, more subtle that the striking Blues and Reds used on the Racing watches

Really like the orange bezel. I may have to strike fast, before the orange crocs go extinct...

Does that photo not make anyone else shudder at the fact the crown on the big blue is touching the c60 bezel :-(

Relax AdDaMan. Mr Rick is one careful individual and he has protected the bezel of the C60 by placing a small piece of rubber on the opposite side of the C9 crown. Fret ye not ;-)
