Christopher Ward C5 Malvern 595
Introduction
I never appreciated how remarkable the Malvern 595 really is until I first held one in my hands. At just 5.95mm high, it’s the slimmest watch Christopher Ward watch has ever produced by over 2mm (the previous thinnest being the 8.25mm C5 Slimline Square).
You could almost have three of these on top of each other and it would be the same height as a C11 Ti Extreme!
It’s a sleek, classic, and (obviously) very slim dress watch which at 39mm diameter screams subtlety and class in equal quantities. In a rare gold colour, that looks superb.
No longer available from Christopher Ward, the C5 Malvern 595 was launched in Jan 2018 and was retired at the end of 2019 - with the last few pieces being sold in early 2020.
