  • This is a follow up to my recent unboxing of the brand new Christopher Ward Trident Pro 300 38mm. It's only been 5 days on the wrist but i wanted to jump on and share my initial thoughts in the hope that it may help others on the decision to buy or not to buy! I'm really new to all of this and i'm really enjoying sharing my views with the watch community. Thanks for watching and please consider subscribing if you'd like to see more. Cheers Alan

    CW makes some beautiful watches. I own a C60 Trident Bronze Ombre from 2018. Not typically a bronze watch guy but the combination of the hand distressed dial with a lumed black ceramic bezel insert just grabbed me. I've never grown tired of it. Yours is a real beauty as well.

    Keep doing those great videos, I really enjoy the way you are presenting the watches and I love the fact, that you seem to have an good eye on small details for these watches. What I'd like to see inkluded in your future videos is just how much flex the braclets have, like in terms of their tolerances between the links. I'm always interested in seeing that.

    Thanks for the review. A matter of personal taste but I prefer the COSC certified 65 Dartmouth which is unique looking but looks like it's been discontinued now. This has a bit more generic look to it and I'm not keen on the white surround on the date or the display back. The case on the Dartmouth is 41mm, my wrist is 7.2 " so looked perfect for me. It is, I bought one a few months ago and haven't regretted it. It's a keeper.

    Great review, Alan. This is very helpful. My wrist is about 6.75" and I've been vacillating between the 38 and 40. The 38 looks fantastic on you, but I think this video has convinced me to go with the 40. I like 38mm watches, but agree that a dive watch needs to have a bit more umph. Keep up the good work!

I wear it with suits and jeans every day! I'm lucky I went to Maidenhead and had the showroom experience with Declan. He makes a good cup of tea! It was only an hours drive for me so wasn't to bad. You can try the whole range and different sizes so you can leave with the perfect watch. CW are going places and my next purchase will be from them. Great watches, Great quality, Great prices and Great people.

    Great job on this video! If there's one piece of advice I may give you for your next videos, it would be this: While I absolutely love that you are moving the watch around a lot (which gives people a good feeling of what the watch would actually look like in 3D), I think you are oftentimes moving the watch too fast. I often wanted to take a closer look at a detail but the the watch was already in another position.
    Anyways... Keep up the great work. I'd be surprised if your channel did not reach 1k subs within the next 2 months, as long as you keep the videos coming.
    Are you considering getting a CW Sealander in 36mm as well?
    One watch, which I think you might absolutely adore, is the Traska Commuter. A great watch for small wrists. It's obviously inspired by the OP. But that's not a bad thing in my opinion 🙂

    I own Tudors and Wards. One day, lady luck will hopefully shine on you (maybe also consider the new Ranger?) and you will feel you can splash out on the Tudor. In the meantime, Ward now have perfected their design language, and their quality is undoubted. Size wise your 38 fits you perfectly. Sooh, lucking out with an accurate movement you won't miss the 58 . Completely. And you should have nearly £2k extra in the bank!

    Great review, this fits you perfectly. Apologies if you already covered this but what is the lume like compared to the Tudor and in general? I see they are using the top x1 grade of lume on this but with the C1 colour which is usually only about 1/3 as bright as BGW9 (which i expected to see on this watch). However BGW9 isn’t available in x1 grade which makes it difficult to compare. I’m wary of c1 as my previous experiences have been poor.

I have a 6.5 inch wrist and have been dailying a omega smp 300 that is 41.5 mm for a three years with no issues. I’m typically a small watch person but found that the watch wears much smaller from everyone else’s perspective, it fills my wrist out when I look at it but in mirrors, pictures, etc it takes up closer to two thirds of my wrist. In the camera though the 38 mm c ward does look perfect.

    You do great reviews and have great taste in watches! I've been eyeing up CW for awhile now. Your review made me pull the trigger. I had a couple others on the list and was deciding on which one to get for my personal bonus to myself. This watch is hitting value so high above its price especially with the revisions and smaller size options. I'm a 6.5" wrist. I have some various size watches and some I feel are a little too big. You have to see them on the wrist to really know. 38mm on your wrist looks perfect so that's what I'm getting.

    Thanks for the video. Subscribed. If I have a 6.5-inch wrist, do you think I should go with 38 or 40? I do have a BB58 as well and I like it but definitely don't want a bigger watch, BB58 dimensions are the maximum for me.

    You're not wrong in stating that there aren't many reviews of the 38mm version out there. I own the 39mm Sealander and that one (I think) wears a bit too large on my 17cm wrist (6.7 in). In fact: To me it looks *pretty* similar on my wrist to how the BB58 looks on your wrist. Meaning I also think I'm *just* getting away with it.. :)
    Sadly, I cannot be sure if I would need the 38 or 40mm version of the Trident, since you can't really compare a Sealander type sports-watch to a diver. My two remaining 39mm Steinhart Ocean One divers are pretty much perfect in size for me while their 42mm version were too large. Weirdly enough, I had a buddy's 40mm Submariner on wrist the other day (mid 90s, pre-Super Case model) and it looked totally fine. So it's always a bit of a lottery and I just wish there was a way for me to put the CWs on my wrist before I buy.
    Still: I think they really upped their game with the new Trident and the little updates it got. Like the Bezel which seems to follow the design of the Tide Trident. Which, BTW, is one model I'd buy *instantly* if they only offered it in a smaller case-size.. :) I'm currently thinking very hard about selling my 39mm Sealander and getting either the 36mm version or the 38mm Trident 300.

    • @Time_and_time_again
      @Time_and_time_again  Рік тому +2

      Sounds like a very similar experience to myself! The Steinhart 39, black bay 58, trident pro 300 40mm are all great choices for both of us then I think! I agree on the sealander being different as it’s not a diver and I personally think is more suited to the 36mm. I’ve just reviewed the new oxygen colour 36mm by the way if you want to check that out. Thanks for sharing your experiences and it’s nice to know it’s similar to myself 😊👍

    Thank you so much for making this video! There's not many reviews on this watch given how new it is, and I think the black dial version looks even better on video than it does in photos. Truly a beautiful watch.
    I've been trying to decide what my first watch should be for a while now, and I've narrowed it down to either this one or the Sinn 556. May I ask how you think they compare to each other? I know they're quite different in style, but I'm mainly wondering if the Sinn feels like it's a step ahead of the CW in terms of quality/ construction. Of course, if you have any other noteworthy input comparing the two, I would love to hear it. Cheers and thanks again!

    • @Time_and_time_again
      @Time_and_time_again  Рік тому +1

      Hi there! Sorry I’m usually quicker at replying! I think they are both equal in terms of quality and you can’t go wrong with either really. I see the Sinn as a tool watch and this one as a diver so obviously different styles. I enjoy wearing both watches and sometimes they get half a day each on the wrist haha. I’m about to upload my c63 unboxing too so that’ll be worth a look as it’s another great choice 🙏👍

    • @brandongacuzana3792
      @brandongacuzana3792 Рік тому

      @Gary-li7ib Рік тому +1

      I've owned the Sinn 556i and also currently own a C63 GMT (and have ordered the exact same watch in this video).
      I honestly felt like the CW was superior. The bracelet and clasp is much better (toolless microadjustment and quick release bracelets are a game changer), the applied indices and hands make it "pop" more and the case shape and design is much more interesting. The Sinn is fine but quite overrated IMHO and whilst I enjoyed it, I haven't really missed it since moving it on whereas I wear the CW regularly (and have ordered another one)

    Having the Trident Pro Mk3 42mm I was unsure whether I needed a slimmer, more ‘wearable’ diver from Christopher Ward. For disclosure I also have a Tudor BB58 in blue and a Christopher Ward Supercompressor, but the white faced Trident Pro 300 was an impulse purchase but one that I am very glad I made. For under £600.00 on orange tropic rubber it’s a steal and my interest in a white faced Omega Seamaster Pro has all but disappeared.
