Christopher Ward C70 BRG Limited Edition
Introduction
The C70 BRG is a 500-piece Limited Edition watch was launched in March 2013. Born from the success of the Grand Prix series, this is a limited edition of 500 pieces in the popular British Racing Green colour that sold out in March 2014. This August 2015 piece, number 448/500 presumably a ‘back of the sofa find’ is one of the later ones you’ll find.
Warranty
As it is no longer covered by CW’s original warranty, this watch comes with a three month Ward Hoard warranty.
Strap options
Fitting with a lightly used tan vintage oak leather strap. If you would prefer head only, I can offer a discount of £30.
Exchange for a new CW hybrid, leather, tropic or tide (an extra £20).
Exchange for a bracelet (subject to availability) (an extra £120)
Condition
The C70’s exposed alloy bezel and thinly applied paint make it notoriously delicate, so finding one in good condition is becoming increasingly challenging (CW has long since exhausted its supply of replacement bezels/cases).
This example is in fabulous condition - one of the best that I’ve seen.
This watch is offered boxed with manual, covering letter and cleaning cloth. Its battery was replaced in late 2024 by an independent jeweller.
