I think it would be interesting to see the C60 Sapphire with a gold or red translucent dial. I like the blue but there are just so many blue-faced watches out there.

I’m more partial to dress-oriented watches over dive and sport models. My preference, though, seems against the tide.

I liked the C60 40mm Sapphire but there's only so much room for blue watches in my life. 3 is enough :)
And yet I’m struggling to find a blue dialled watch that I like all aspects of and can justify the cost enough to buy as it wouldn't be my main wear but I'd like to have 1.

So maybe a C65 41mm case with a dark navy dial that doesn’t have round markers, isn’t as busy on the dial or bezel as the Dartmouth or recent blue Chrono, can be a 3 hander or 2 or 3 sub-dialled Chrono (but not with the big screw down crown and pushers), doesn’t use orange or a plethora of other colours and doesn’t have “vintage” lume. Oh, and of course for me the name at 12o’clock.

Alternatively a nice simple dark blue dialled version of the Sandhurst but with white hands and markers.

I could get on board with that with a white dial!

I'm with you on the color varieties for the C60 sapphire! I would love a yellow or orange dial one - could call it the "OJ" :D But more colors in general I think would be a big hit among enthusiasts and the general public.

Something like the Birkin's Blower that looks like it will fly off the shelf :lol: ( They really can't get rid of it)

I’m not sure about this. A couple of C60/ C65 variants perhaps, but it would be good to see innovation and to extend the range beyond the diver focus

I'd like to see a C65 in bronze with a blue face and blue bezel.

I'd also like to see a C60 in bronze with a blue face and blue bezel.

I think both these prototypes sold in the recent sale?

I'm a sucker for bronze/gold hue and blue & blue.
Omega Speedmaster, Bulova Accutron Gemini, Tudor Black Bay Heritage Maroon & Black, C65 Trident Bronze SH21 LE, C65 Trident Black, C65 Trident Diver SH21, C65 Trident Ombre LE, Longines HydroConquest beautiful AF and better than C60 300

Did someone say bronze and blue?

I came across this about 60 seconds after reading your post. Bronze and blue make for a beautiful combination!

I agree about a red dial (well, a deep red). I think orient did well with the red Kamasu/Mako3, and I noticed Marc at Long Island is now doing a similar red. I think a deep green would do well also, Aquis green rather than Hulk green.

+1

I like everything about the Mk3, especially the fully lumed bezel, but won't/can't buy 1 due to the 9o'clock name logo.
