Welcome to our world! We are Ward Hoard, a dedicated home for pre‑owned Christopher Ward watches.
What started as a passion has become one of the most trusted places to buy CW pieces online. We curate every watch carefully, ensure honest condition reporting and photograph each model with the detail we’d want if we were buying it ourselves.
Our goal is simple - to make buying a pre‑owned CW as easy and enjoyable as it can be.
Whether you are dipping your toe into the wonderful world of watches, hunting a discontinued classic, upgrading a daily wearer, or adding something special to your collection, you’ll find it here — accurately described, properly inspected and ready to wear.
We release new stock to our mailing list first. Remaining items are added to the site shortly after.
We also have a sister site - the Second Hand Watch Collective, where you can discover brands other than CW.

Quick facts
Reference: C60 Trident Mk3 Pro 600 Limited Edition
Category: Dive
Size: Large / Medium
Movement: Automatic
Condition: Excellent
CW (manufacturer) warranty: Expires January 2028
Buy it if you want: a sought‑after limited edition that delivers a stealth look without sacrificing legibility
Description
The Graphite Special Edition was launched in January 2023 as a 250‑piece limited run and sold out within hours. It is based on the 42mm Mk3 C60 Trident Pro 600, but the execution gives it a very different feel from the standard model. This wasn’t just a colour swap, it was a proper reworking of the look.
The grey PVD case gives the watch a much more subdued and purposeful character. While that case was shared with the now retired C60 Abyss, the rest of the details are unique to the Graphite. The matte black and grey ceramic bezel and the grey dial work extremely well together and give the watch a cohesion that a lot of special editions miss. It is still unmistakably a C60, tough, legible and easy to wear, but it feels darker, quieter and more deliberate. If you like the Trident but want something that stands apart from the regular production models, this one really hits the mark.

Quick facts
Reference: C12 Loco
Category: Dress / Halo
Size: Medium
Movement: Automatic
Condition: Nearly new
CW (manufacturer) warranty: Expires September 2030
Buy it if you want: a mesmerising movement on display at all times.
Description
The C12 Loco is Christopher Ward’s most recent Atelier output, but the thinking behind it predates the label itself. Long before Atelier was formalised, CW had a habit of testing ideas that went beyond mainstream sports and dress watches, experimenting with movement architecture and case construction in ways that signalled broader ambition. Loco belongs to that lineage. It takes confidence gained from Bel Canto and redirects it away from chiming complications towards something more visual and mechanical, making the movement itself the point rather than something hidden beneath a dial.
Instead of sound, the focus is on motion. The CW‑003 is a manually wound calibre with a 144‑hour power reserve and a front‑facing free‑sprung balance, fully exposed and gently animated as you wear the watch. The open dial is layered and architectural without feeling cluttered, with bridges stepping neatly around the balance and finishing that is clean rather than demonstrative. The 41mm integrated case reinforces that intent. The bracelet flows directly from the mid‑case, the ergonomics are noticeably more refined than earlier CW sports designs and the watch sits comfortably despite the visual complexity. It feels modern, considered and slightly playful — not a statement piece in the traditional sense, but a watch that rewards repeated, casual glances rather than demanding attention.
The name Loco reportedly reflects both the reaction to the idea — that CW must be mad to attempt it — and the locomotive‑like focus on visible motion that drives the watch forward.

Supplied on a CW bracelet with the push/pull micro-adjust and quick release lugs in excellent condition. Complete with all spare links.

Description
The C60 Trident Pro 300 Atoll traces its roots back to the Mk3 C60 Trident, launched in May 2019, a significant update that refined what was already Christopher Ward’s strongest seller. The Atoll made its debut in June 2022 with the Atoll Special Edition, a limited run of 350 pieces that sold out within hours. Marketed at launch as a “summer watch”, it stood apart through its stunning dial.
The distinguishing feature of the Atoll Special Edition was its graduated azure‑blue lacquer dial, inspired by the atolls of the Indian Ocean. Lightest at the centre and deepening towards the edge, the dial was created by spraying layers of colour onto a rotating turntable, with the final intensity controlled by spin speed. The result is a genuine fumé effect where no two dials are quite the same. Housed in a 40mm Light‑catcher™ case and rated to 600 metres, it retained the serious credentials of the Trident line while leaning heavily into aesthetics.
Following the success of the limited model, Christopher Ward expanded the concept with the Atoll 300 in June 2023, this time as a non‑limited edition based on the C60 Trident Pro 300. The formula remained largely intact, carrying over the tropical fumé theme and pairing it with colour‑matched date wheels. Two dial options were offered, Shark White and Reef Blue, along with a sandblasted bezel featuring raised, polished numerals.
Condition and performance
The watch is in good condition with signs of regular wear.

Crystal: Clear, no marks
Supplied on a CW bracelet with ratchet micro-adjust and quick release lugs showing light marks consistent with wear. Measures 15.5 cm so will fit a wrist up to c. 20 cm.
