Inspired by the emergence of long-distance air travel during the 1960s, the new C65 GMT Worldtimer captures the era’s liberating possibilities within its aesthetic and technical capabilities. The first CW to feature both GMT and worldtimer functionality, both complications help supply the C65 a distinctive tool watch look.

A fixed 24-hour ring around the edge of its blackened dial is finished in yellow and white; its Sellita SW330 movement’s GMT hand is proudly presented in the former, whilst also being used to tell the time in a separate timezone.

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 .

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.

Movement

The Sellita SW330 calibre with dual-time functionality allows for the time to be told in two time zones simultaneously - hence its use on "GMT" watches.

When fully wound, it delivers 42 hours of continuous power, while vibrating at a rate of eight times per second (28,800 times an hour).
