C65 Trident GMT

In the C65 Trident GMT, a watch that

can allow its wearer to track the time in

three separate time zones, the ‘60s dive

watch aesthetic rst unveiled in our

C65 Trident Diver has gone global.

Initially introduced in the 1950s and ‘60s, the rst

GMT watches were created at the request of Pan

Am pilots seeking the ability to track multiple time

zones throughout their transatlantic ights. Watches

like Rolex’s GMT Master proved a particularly elegant

solution to the newfound problem posed by long haul

journeys; the C65 Trident GMT channels the same

excitement and possibility of the Golden Age of air

travel, a time when air hostesses were the height of

glamour – and there was considerably more legroom!

One of the GMT’s strengths lies in how it blends

functionality and design to evoke its ‘60s theming

with such charming nesse. For the blue and black dial

options, a 24 hour brushed stainless steel bezel insert

has been engraved and then lled with lacquer.

The alternative is a red and blue dual-toned anodised

aluminium bezel insert – a design touch to enhance

the matte black dial. The other stand-out addition

is the C65’s GMT hand, present in a bright hue that

in turn complements its SuperLumiNova®-lled

baton indexes.

Add the precision and robust nature of the Swiss-

made ETA 2893-2 (Sellita SW330 for the red/blue

bezel and blue dial options) inside – movements whose

42-hour power reserve will comfortably outlast even

the longest of ights – and the combinative eect

conrms the C65 Trident GMT as a rugged traveller’s

watch ready for its next globe-trotting adventure.

1. Manual winding

3. Time setting

How to operate your C65 Trident GMT

The crown should sit ush to the case (position

)

in order to maintain water resistance.

• To re-power the watch after a period of non-use,

simply wind the crown in a clockwise direction.

Your C65 Trident GMT has a maximum power

reserve of 42 hours when fully wound.

• Pull gently into position

. For rapid date

correction, turn in an anti-clockwise direction.

To set the GMT hand, turn the crown clockwise

and rotate the hand until you have reached the

desired time indication. The GMT hand moves in

one-hour increments.

• To set the time pull out the crown gently into

position

. This position is used for handsetting

and stopping of the second hand. Turn the crown

until you reach the correct time e.g. 10.08 hr.

For precise time setting it is recommended you

pass beyond the desired minute and to set the

hand backwards.

PLEASE NOTE: Date correction should not be

carried out between 20.00 hr and 02.00 hr as

the watch gearing will already be aligning itself

to change the date. The crown should always

be pushed in after adjustment, and it is best to

do so from position 3 to avoid advancing beyond

the desired date.

How to operate your C65 Trident GMT

Using the GMT hand for travel

Set the time in your new destination by pulling the

crown into position

and move the hour/minute

hands until they indicate the desired time.

Push crown into position

and wind, clockwise,

the GMT hand around the 24-hour scale on the

bezel until you have the right time at home.

E.g. If you’re travelling from London at 12:10 to

New York, you would turn the hour/minute hands

to 7:10 (NY time is ve hours behind London) and

wind the GMT hand around to the 12:10 position.

Once set, it means that, for example, you can gauge

the time to ring your friends and family without

waking them in the middle of the night.

Note: The table opposite can be used to determine

the appropriate time zone when setting the hour/

minute hands.
