New CW Biscay

Thoughts on the new CW Trident Biscay? I quite like them.

I do like the retro skindiver look. Unusually for me I think the smaller of the 2 options looks better

the 3/6/9 dial in this style is just too Explorery for me, I think. Either that or I am not sure it matches well with a dive bezel?

Love the bronze and the Pepsi - Tudor-esque.

I have a bronze c60 with that leather strap, thankfully I took a black rubber strap as an option as the leather ages really badly.

Only just bought a trident lumiere in orange as a summer piece otherwise I would be in there like swimwear

Ha ha, I'm in exactly the same boat.

I love this, not sure what strap though but definitely in the larger case.

CW do seem to be doing something right currently.

I have a C60 Trident #tide which I'm extremely happy with but I do want to add another "timepiece" (gag!) to my "collection" (of 1), every time I'm set on something in the range (obviously money allowing, but still waiting!), they launch something else which I like.

Think it looks OK.

Went onto the CW site and was quite shocked at some of the prices being asked for some of their watches, as I haven't really looked at them for a couple of years.

Coincidentally, I've been wearing this C63 for the last couple of days as it really hasn't been on for well over a year and a half I'd imagine.

Really warming to it again and realised the only reason it hasn't been on is down to the strap which I'm not keen on, so a sailcloth one was ordered on Tuesday.

Once they could finally use the two flags logo they revamped their whole business and approach - been hugely successful to be fair. The prices have gone up but I think the quality and innovation have gone *way* up so feels justified.

I agree. The Chronometer SW300 movement is a good one, plus the light catcher case is a really nice design. Tudor could learn a thing or two here. When I went Tudor shopping I was quite disappointed by the case design on the BB58.
