Christopher Ward C60 Trident Pro 600 Atoll Special Edition

Introduction

May 2019 saw the arrival of the Mk3 C60 Trident - CW successfully managing to upgrade and improve on their already best-selling model. The watch for sale is the Atoll Special Edition, which arrived in June 2022 and sold out within hours of going on sale.

Released in July 2022, the C60 Atoll Special Edition is a limited edition of 350 pieces specifically described at launch as a "Summer watch". It features an azure-blue, lacquered dial, 'inspired by the atolls of the Indian Ocean', which is graduated, growing lighter towards the centre. The watch utilises a 40mm Light-catcher™ case which is water resistant to 600 metres.

The C60 Atoll is a 350 piece special and is based on a 40mm Mk3 C60 Pro 600. The difference from the standard model include: its stunning gradient dial, which has a light azure blue in the centre before getting gradually darker towards the edge.

It is achieved by spraying a darker shade onto the dial while it spins on a specially constructed turntable. Then a lighter colour is added on top of this.

From then on, layers of colours are added, with the intensity of shade decided by the speed of the spin. It makes each dial unique!

Not to be confused with the Atoll 300 - a non-limited edition based on the Mk3 C60 Pro 300 that was introduced in 2023. I personally prefer the different bezel on the rarer Atoll 600 and the greater contrast between the edge and centre of the dial.
