Christopher Ward C60 Trident LumièrevsFarer Lethbridge Gold

The Christopher Ward C60 Trident Lumière is praised for its bright, even lume and astounding legibility, with Globolight XP markers and hands providing a spectacular 3D effect. Reviewers note the grade 2 titanium case and bracelet, featuring an alternating brushed and polished finish, and a comfortable 10.85mm thickness for all-day wear. The 120-click bezel is described as having no wiggle and crisp, audible stops, with a fully lumed ceramic insert, green for the first 15 minutes and blue for the remainder. It is powered by a COSC-certified Sellita SW300-1 movement. Some reviewers point out that the end links are longer than the lugs, which was a point of disappointment. Overall, reviewers rate the Christopher Ward C60 Trident Lumière highly for its exceptional lume performance and comfortable titanium construction at the price.

Owners widely praise the Farer Lethbridge Gold's attractive appearance and finishing, with one owner calling its PVD gold finish the best they've seen. The watch runs at +4 seconds per day. Some owners note the gold PVD coating can scratch easily and fades slightly on edges, and the original strap tarnished quickly, leading some to seek strap alternatives like blue or gray leather, or NATO/sailcloth. One owner mentions its manual-wind movement and that it is not real gold, which is acceptable given the price. Overall, owners rate the Farer Lethbridge Gold highly for its striking aesthetics and good value, despite minor concerns about the strap and PVD durability.
