CHRISTOPHER WARD C65 TRIDENT CLASSIC MK2

In 2014 Christopher Ward took the case they used for the C60 dive watch, binned the rotating bezel and made a dress version, which they named the C65 Trident Classic. The Mk1 version had a satin/brushed case, but the Mk2 version, which was introduced in 2016 and is the one for sale here, has more polished areas and details making it a bit more eye-catching. It was available with a leather strap or bracelet - the same one as fitted to C60 Trident Mk2s.

It’s a September 2017 watch, so the movement warranty is valid until September 2022. This model was retired in November 2017, so this is one of the later ones you’ll find.

Condition
The watch is in great used condition. There are some very light marks dotted around the sides of the case and polished bezel which indicate it’s a used watch, but nothing really worthy of specific mention. The ‘worst’ marks are the light scratches on the polished section of the case back. It’s fitted with a brand new CW black leather embossed strap.

Supplied as a full set including inner and outer CW boxes, unused polishing cloth and user book with Certificate of Authenticity.

User Manual

Christopher Ward don’t have the PDF manual for the Mk2 version on their website, but it’s technically the same as the Mk1, which they do: https://www.christopherward.com/on/demandware.static/-/Library-Sites-cw-library/default/dw7b5648e6/pdfs/Dress/c65trident_manual.pdf

Final notes

The first photo is a library shot. The rest all show the actual watch and package.

My little photographic cube has a dimpled foil lining which can make the polished sections look a bit pitted. Please be assured they’re reflections, not damage - I need to try to address that!
