Reminiscent of the slim dive watches worn throughout the 1960s, this new addition to the C65 collection swaps sandy beaches for stylish airport lounges with its GMT and worldtimer functions – the first time both have appeared together in a CW release. The C65 GMT Worldtimer captures the excitement of the blossoming jet-setting era, its yellow and black tool watch looks underpinned by a Swiss-made Sellita SW330 movement.
The world on your wrist
Take a design inspired by mid-century travel and diving watches. Add two bezels – one inner (with the 24-hour clock), one outer (stamped with the world’s capital cities). The result is a watch that’s both technically advanced and beautiful to look at.
Thanks to its fourth GMT hand you’ll be able to monitor the time in a separate timezone around the world. And by using the inner and outer bezels together, you can tell the time in 24 international capital cities – simultaneously
Despite its technical capabilities, this isn’t a chunky watch. That’s down to the light-catcher™ case that not only catches the light beautifully (check the contrast between brushed and polished surfaces) but is also designed to look and feel slim on the wrist.
Whether you’re in contact with offices around the globe, or just have an international mindset, this is the watch for you.
Yet the real eye catcher here is the feature making its debut in the C65 family: a worldtimer bezel. Present in 42mm – 1mm larger than the rest of the case for legibility purposes – 24 international cities adorn a mix of brushed steel and black surfaces. Just like supersonic travel brought those far-flung corners of the globe into reach, the C65 also connects its wearer with the likes of Karachi and La Paz (whether they plan on travelling there or not!).
Despite its global outlook, the C65 GMT Worldtimer remains a dive watch at heart. Its ‘light-catcher™’ case is water-resistant to 150m, with a screw-down crown a welcome reassurance for those taking it for a light snorkel – or a more thorough scuba.
Sellita SW330 Automatic
Made by one of the most respected names in Swiss watchmaking, the SW330 is a true ‘GMT’ movement.
This means that it has an extra hand that follows a 24-hour path around the dial. It can be changed by the wearer – using an exterior bezel – to set the time in another time zone.
The SW330 also has a date wheel, plus an anti-shock mechanism that helps it maintain accuracy even when it receives knocks and jolts.
Meanwhile, its seconds hand will sweep smoothly at a satisfying eight ticks per second.
