* "Official" Christopher Ward C60 Trident Pro Owners Thread *

Great thread! I agree with you on the value proposition of these watches when they're on sale.

While there were many things about the watch that impressed me, the clasp, with its internal, tool-less micro adjustment feature, was the thing the feature I was most surprised by. I wish some other affordables would copy it!

Let's hope this is not going to turn into another CW logo or customer service thread..!

Bought my 43mm Vintage about a year ago and paid full price. Still worth every pound sterling I paid for it. I have a PVD version coming in that was shipped out yesterday. Can't wait to see how they compare.

Looks good on nato/zulu straps

My current favorite German leather strap from cheapestnatostraps (currently not available anymore).

Cool caseback

Nice fit for my 7.5" wrist

 

That's a great looking Trident vintage Nordwulf. I am almost sorry I sold mine because I decided to keep my white Trident instead. Looks like the vintage can take any strap you throw at it.

Pictures of mine soon, great thread OP. Looking forward to seeing a lot of Tridents here!

 

I agree with the above comments. Got watch a year ago during the 50% off sale and got bracelet off the most recent 50% off sale. The quality is over the top. Is it worth the retail price? That depends on the individual and how they regard the value but it is a great watch never-the-less.

Be well,

It can be difficult to fit a nato/zulu strap on the C60 using straight spring bars. My C60 came with the leather strap with curved ends and springbars. Using it with a nato/zulu and the curved bars works perfect as opposed to using straight bars.

I also had a hard time with using leather straps with straight ends and bars. Using the curved bars on a straight end strap also makes it a lot easier.

 

Really enjoy mine as well.

Thanks for the tip on the curved spring bars nordwulf. Going to have to pick some up. It was a major pain getting the new strap on.

 

Crazy deal for $350ish shipped to me in Canada. I am waiting for the Vintage Leather strap to arrive as the first one they sent me did not fit. Seems like a pretty versatile watch so far. Curved spring bars are the way to go.

anyone recommends where to get curved bars? i have bought fat boys, chinese springbars, expensive swiss springbars... but never curved
22mm (i have a 43mm 600 GMT white face with bracelet )

 

I bought these 22mm from eBay and not impressed. They are thin and not long enough for a secure fit so I don't feel comfortable using them. 4 PCS Stainless Steel Curved Spring Bar Pins Link For Watch Band Size 10mm-30mm | eBay

The curved spring bars that came with the C60 are much better and stronger quality.

 

 

yeah i was looking on the bay and some look like the chinese crap put into the cheap chinese "spring bar curve tool", or even curved by hand.. thats why i have asked. also i think you should use a 23mm straight bar for that tool to securely put it in between 22mm lugs...

 

Im all in :-d
Great watch, great value, in the recent sale was impossible to resist this beauty:

 

Got my c60 vintage pvd 38mm on the way. Wonder any picture of pvd with bracelet can help my thirsty?

This thread needs a chrono

 

very interesting bezel!

 

I really like this new design. Almost more than my older style.

 

I'm usually not a chrono fan, but I like that one. Very nice.

I'm surprised at how many other vintages have already been posted. One of the reasons I went with that is that they don't have the wave dial. I got my wife a black C60 300 (quartz) during the black Friday sale, and after seeing the wave dial up close I decided against it for my Pro 600.

 

Sold my "wave" dial. I didn't really mind the wave but the red was a little
too much for me. Still a beautiful diver though.

 

Glad to see an official thread for the Trident here. Here is a question that I have been very hesitant to ask on the CW Forum - anyone moding their Trident? I have picked up a few different colors through various sales and have been thinking about swapping bezels. Anyone swapping bezels? In a side note, I have a bezel and insert from a Seiko SSC019 solar diver and it mics out to be the same size as the Trident's bezel....

 

^ I have not seen any yet. I've never been able to remove the bezel on my SKXs without causing minor nicks and scratches to the case, even with taping. The concept and technique should be the same I'd guess? But for me personally I would not want to risk damage. YMMV of course.

 

I've wanted one of these bad boys since CW first brought them out and the 30% off that they ran at the end of last year was all that was needed to push me over the edge.

 

Hi from Vegas.

Love this watch.

 

Which one to choose is the "problem". All these great pics of different versions of this watch, have given me what to think about!
Do you still love yours?

Mine says hi

The version I wanted (exact same one but the 600) was sold out by the time I got on the sale so I figured why not try a quartz out. I needed a grab n go anyways and figured it would be a good and cheap way to see what the quality's like. Long story short....Horrible decision because now I'm gonna have to end up buying a 600 as well.
