Christopher Ward C60 Trident GMT Automatic Mk1 43mm

Introduction

The Mk1 C60 Trident hit the watch world in 2009. It was available in a Henry Ford style ‘any colour you want, as long as it’s black’. The initial price of just £300 was a ridiculous bargain and the watch was an instant hit.

In 2010 the price increased and so did the C60 range, thanks to the addition of two GMT models - one with white pips and one with orange, which cost £499 on leather/rubber or £580 on a bracelet.

In 2012, CW introduced the CHR. WARD logo, replacing the original round CW icon. This watch is of 2011 vintage, with the original round CW icon on the face and the orange pips.

Condition

It is in fantastic shape. There are only light marks from use - it is great for a thirteen year old watch. There is a very light mark on the bezel (see photo).

The original CW stainless bracelet (with pop-out diver’s extension) is also in pretty good shape.

It’s a one-owner, ‘full set’ watch which comes boxed with user guide/Certificate of Authenticity, unused polishing cloth and original covering letter. It even comes with the original invoice.

On the Timegrapher it’s keeping fabulous time at approx +3 seconds per day (brand new CW C60 GMTs have a factory tolerance of +/-20sec).

Strap options

Let me know if you are looking for something other than the original bracelet and we can work something out.

Final Notes

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

Fun (!) fact: CW stated these to be 42mm in the earlier user books, but they’re actually 43mm - an error which was corrected in later books
