@@RabbitWatchShop it’s like you reached into my soul with that comment my brother! Couldn’t agree more. Nearly 3/4 of my watches are dive watches but it’s the Explorer that is the only one that competes with them for wrist time. It’s the only watch that I own that is not at least a 39mm plus and although I’ve never experienced a 39 or 40mm Explorer I’m convinced from my visuals of them that the Explorer is meant to be and is perfect dimensionally at 36mm! Even the current 36 Explorer (124270) seems off to me when compared to my reference 114270 they stopped in 2010 and started messing with its size. Amazing what that 3-6-9 does for the Explorer’s dial!

Nor will we ever get tired of it! It’s awesome. Even if it was a $1000 watch I’d think the same! Insane it’s so affordable!!

You mean I’m NOT the only one!!??

Congratulations! My first one was a “Submariner”…. I understand the appeal of having the Original design with the symmetrical dial. Certainly a purchase you’ll never regret! Enjoy!

@@danionescu1271 I had just put on my Sub 200 before I opened your comment, the wearability of that case is growing on me big time! What a great trio that would be to have to cover their 3 case designs and to have those 3 colors!! I’m big on Blue divers as well and really want a Caribbean Doxa at some point. Enjoy the 300T, you’ll fall more and more in love with it! Thanks!

@@RSSpec Yeah, that was my thinking exactly, 3 colors, 3 cases :) Plus, I've been collecting vintage Doxa for years, have many different models and I said why not take a shot at the new ones as well....Funny enough, a vintage SUB isn't in the cards, because a good condition example costs too much....

I could see that with the old Subs especially if it actually was used as its intention of a dive watch which they did back then before dive computers. But growing up with Jacques Cousteau and The Calypso I’ve been aware of Doxa for years! The vintage bug hasn’t bit me yet but I’d love to find an early Sharkhunter from ‘63 that the Sub 200 is basically a reissue of.

Unbeatable value in my book! … Did you see the brand new drop they just did with The Lumiere Trident? They just keep killing it!!

Same answer I gave on the bezel video. Lol. I would rather have the applied logo but it’s hardly a big deal. They have since added the applied logo on the whole Trident line and I do have the applied twin flags on my CW “40”. But yes the applied one is a nice touch!

@@RSSpec maybe you should sell your watch and get the applied logo!

@@Clubbow5 Congratulations on the purchase. I believe those are only in the 42mm, I have no doubt it will fit as well as my 40mm. They fit so good!! Absolutely you buy a watch for aesthetics and how it fits. The fact that CW’s have a great bezel in my opinion is an added bonus. I’d guess it’s a very large majority that don’t use these watches for actual diving but always reassuring that if it can take that pressure of 30 atmospheres it’s a robust watch and will survive our 8 hours at the desk. Lol … Enjoy, great looking watch!!

Yes since I got mine almost a year ago they have added the applied twin flag logo to the Trident. I also do have a 40mm “12” that has the applied logo and I do like it better. But hardly a deal breaker…. CW is great like that, where they update and improve their watches during the same reference run. I just recently noticed that the whole Trident line seems to now have it.

Yeah, I was thinking the same! I almost threw it off the pier at that moment to save me the agony of wearing it! 😊

I’ve only heard great things about the Ocean Rover!!

I’m starting to hear the word Iconic to describe them!! Great watches!

@@denysiopel7424 I’m at a 7 in wrist and the 40 is perfect for me. I would think the 42 would work fine as well. From all the reviews I’ve seen most people seem to Prefer the 40. Sure it’s a win win situation!… Incredible watch either way!!

@@RSSpecthank you for taking your time to reply to me!

My pleasure! Definitely get the Trident!! Won’t beat it for the money!

Thanks for bringing Dacia to my attention! Lol …. I’ll keep my E39 M5 Thank you!

@@RyanAguiar3 7in wrist. The 300T is only 44.5 lug to lug but the wide bracelet gives it a big feel.

@@Andy-ys8sj Thanks for that info! I thought it was funny that you can hear more of the infamous older Rolex bracelet jingle than the bezel click when I was turning the Subs bezel. So I guess I’m not crazy thinking the CW compares quite well to the Rolex.

@@RSSpec the quality of cnc milling machines these days are far superior to ones used 15_20 years that the neo vintage rolex. The bracelet, clasp case and bezel will be as good if not better in a £1000 modern watch than the older piece you showed, I'd say that the only thing that is better apart from the classic design of the rolex is the movement, also the rolex was about £4000, 15_20 years ago. But thanks for the reply and I enjoyed your content all the best from the 🇬🇧.

@@Andy-ys8sj Thanks!.. Oh I get you about the quality in the bracelet and clasps these days is way better. My CW bracelets are way better than vintage Rolex. But in all the years I’ve owned a Rolex I don’t ever remembering that I looked at those pre 2010 bracelets and thought to myself that they were cheap. In comparison the new ones are better no doubt but I was never failed by the old school ones and they are definitely lighter. The jingle is part of the charm too!! lol … Again Thanks!

@@icas80 I was thinking that the dial itself would be too small on the 39… Exacty a Doxa needs to be meaty!! Caribbean awful nice BUT if only going to have 1 Doxa I think the Orange is way to go 🤷🏼‍♂️. I do think I’d prefer my Sub200 in Caribbean though. The Orange is different on the Sub 200 compared to the Orange on the 300T.

Thanks! Appreciate it!

@@JuanSegarra-td6yr Cool! It probably fits a little smaller than the 300T. Mine runs pretty close to COSC specs at about 5 secs fast a day so I’m happy with it.

Sweet! Doxa has become my favorite dive watch brand! The 600T is also a classic Doxa design!

I agree CW’s quality versus cost is for the most part as good as it gets. A lack of an ln-house movement will always be a bit of a negative to some people but I agree that they’ll only go up in value.

You have obviously never seen a premium watch

@@peterlandbo2726 I mean, I've owned plenty, but go on with your assumptions.

Congratulations on another CW!! Great watches!! I actually ended up trading in this Blue dialed one for a Black dial one. That’s one of my earliest videos, I have a good few other ones on how much I love CW and especially the Trident!! They fit as well as any watch I own!

@@RSSpec I have a longines, Omega, and Tag in blue so I went black dial all the way

@@MrDeengels I like Blue as well! I got 4 blue divers and also a 40mm CW “12” in Nordic blue. Although CW does Black dials real well!

@@whereRbearsTeeth great way to describe it… Badass! I bet the Yellow Morning Star is just as awesome as the Orange dial.

The Trident is just an amazing watch… regardless of price! To think it’s about 1/8 the $$ of an older Sub is crazy. I’m not exaggerating when I say the CW Trident fits better than my Sub!! And the Sub fits quite well!

Love the raised bezel on the Atolls!

I also have a 1521 with the Black Militaire dial and it looks great!!

Agreed!…. Pretty crazy that you can get the quality this Trident is for 1/8 the price of a Sub!!

Sorry your ill mate, but you allowed the fascist state of Cali to convince you to get a jab, I know that you made your choice and are now paying the price. I hope you have a good and swift recovery

Congratulations! You’ll love it!

Great question. I just looked up my CW invoices for both watches and they do show a different part number for each watches end links which CW is calling shoulders. Pretty sure the bracelet itself would interchange, but apparently there may be a slight difference in the dimensions of the end links. Perhaps CW sells that end link by itself. The slight difference may be that the Sealander is a 39mm case and even though they both are 20mm lug width, some dimension must be slightly different. Ask the question to CW via E mail, they’re good at getting back to you even if it takes a day or two. They can confirm all that and ask if you can buy just the end links. Thanks!!

The Sellita’s not the worst they could have used but for sure not the best, especially the 38 hour reserve that’s way behind what else is available! Plus side is reliability and service cost and mine run about 5-7 seconds fast a day which is acceptable at this price. But certainly a valid gripe feeling you want a better movement.!

Awesome! I have no doubt about it being a watch that withstands almost any situation! Good to know that the tritium gave you about 15 years before deciding to send to them to service it. You got a great testimony about a great watch! I love mine!

And I’m honest when I say it fits better then my Submariner!

Hard to top for $1095!

Yes, Zodiacs are fun to own.

I also do have a Zodiac Super Seawolf Pro Diver. I love the dial and handset on it but it’s not nearly the quality of the Trident IMO. The Trident fits as well as any watch I own!

@@RSSpec Design and history od geat but I Heard bracelet quality is quite bad. And It's top expenaive for what IT offers

If your talking about the Zodiac I would agree it’s not worth it’s price tag. I couldn’t get rid of the 7 link bracelet it came with Fast enough!

@@RSSpec oyster style looks great, but not for this price and quality. Anyway I've printed trident picture if in a year I can fight guilt of splurging on watch it will be mine.

Never heard anything bad about Sinn. Unique styling and great construction. I’m thinking their a little more money though

Agreed!…Amazing how well the Trident fits for a 300m diver!!

I wish the green came in 38mm. I have it in black instead which I’m very happy with.

I just realized that now that the Green’s not available in 38!….Yes they wear so well! Best fitting watch I have!

Thanks! I didn’t stress in this video how great the Trident also fits!! It fits better than the Sub!

Exactly what happened to me!! And I’d have no problem getting a 4th!!

Simply put, you did Good!!

Hard to top these Christopher Ward’s!! Enjoy!

Thanks Pete! I agree with the $500 - 2k window, most of mine are in the $900-$1200 range which is why I love Christopher Ward so much. I’m done chasing any more high dollar ones, but I had to get the Sub just so I’d shut up about it!! Lol
