CHRISTOPHER WARD C3 MALVERN Mk1 CHRONOGRAPH
Introduction
The C3 Malvern Chronograph was released along with the C5 Malvern Automatic as one of Christopher Ward's first two watches in June 2005. The Mk 1 version is a 40mm tri-compax quartz chronograph with a date window at 4:00, marked by an arrow, and applied Arabic indices for the other hours. The three-level dial has subdials for running seconds at 2:00, elapsed 1/10 seconds at 6:00 and a 30-minute chronograph register at 10:00.
Warranty
It comes with a three month Ward Hoard warranty.
Strap
The original brown leather strap with clasp is in fantastic condition. It also comes with its original bracelet, which again is in fantastic condition and may even be unworn.
Condition
Simply stunning. I bought this from its original owner who has obviously looked after it extremely well and only worn on special occasions.
Offered with manual complete with Certificate of Authenticity, all original papers and the original unused polishing cloth! The original boxes are also in great condition - it’s rare to see an outer box at all for this era of CW, never mind one in this condition.
Overall, it’s a very rare, original C3, almost unheard to see in this condition, with both the original strap and the bracelet.
