WH397 - C60 Chronograph 'BumbleBeast' (07/2021)
Christopher Ward C60 Chronograph
Introduction
The first automatic C60 Chronograph was launched in 2016 (retired 2019) and was based on the 43mm C60 Mk2 - CW Called it the C60 Trident Chronograph Pro 600. At some 131g in weight (head only) and standing 17mm tall, it quickly became known as ‘the Beast’!
The watch in this listing is CW’s second C60 auto Chrono and it was part of the 42mm C60 Mk3 family - CW went for a more simplified name this time around: the C60 Chronograph! At 115g and 16mm tall, it’s not quite as chunky as its predecessor, but’s still more than worthy of its ‘BumbleBeast’ nickname.
This model was launched in October 2020 and was retired in Jan 2023.
