Boasting a buffy acacia titanium case and three retro dial finishes, the C60 Trident Lumiere combines tool watch quintessence with a sophisticated feel. Globolight lume, a blend of Super-LumiNova and ceramic, creates a three-dimensional glow. Powered by the COSC-certified Sellita SW300-1 movement, it contributes to the 10.85mm case thinness.
There are plenty of Swiss dive watches that offer great value for money, but if you’re looking to buy one, Christopher Ward is one to consider. The C60 Trident has been one of our best sellers for 15 years, and it has always evolved to keep up with the latest trends and quality expectations. The latest version is the Christopher Ward C60 Trident Lumiere, which places as much emphasis on luminescence as it does on technical specifications.
Every watch enthusiast has a “Swiss Diver” box filled in their watch box by now. To get past that hurdle, any brand needs to find a point of differentiation. The new Christopher Ward C60 Trident Lumiere checks a lot of boxes in that regard, and it excels in a lot more than an attractive dial color. For starters, the 41mm case is made from titanium and measures 47.9mm from lug to lug. Not only is it comfortable due to its light weight and wrist-hugging size, but it also has an impressive overall thickness of 10.85mm. A deep-sea diving watch with a water resistance of 300m It is equipped with an automatic movement and, to prove suitable for professional saturation divers, the watch case also incorporates a helium escape valve.
Dial legibility has always been one of the most important aspects of a dive watch, and Christopher Ward has gone the extra mile here: the hands are completely different shapes and sizes to make them easy to distinguish, a seconds hand with a trident counterbalance lets you know the watch is running, and an inverted triangle at 12 o’clock points you in the right direction. What really shines here is the It is a method for measuring brightness at night.The watch employs a three-dimensional luminous structure rather than just a layer of paint. Produced by Xenoprint, the luminous body, called Globolight, is made from a fusion of Swiss Super-LumiNova and ceramic materials. This ensures an incredibly intense glow when the lights are off, as well as the faceted edges of the applied luminous hour markers.
The grainy dial behind the lume is available in three fumé variations: the first is a light ocean blue, the second a dark grey, and the third a punchy orange. The bezel insert has a matte finish that might lead you to believe it’s made of aluminum, but it’s actually brushed ceramic. When it comes to scratch resistance, the bezel and sapphire crystal have you covered. Grade 2 titanium cases are significantly softer and more susceptible to scratches than steel.This watch is equipped with a Sellita SW300-1. COSC-certified accuracy, within -4/+6 seconds per dayIt has a 54-hour power reserve and a beat rate of 4Hz. The titanium bracelet is also notable for its on-the-fly micro-adjustment via a push-button clasp.
