CHRISTOPHER WARD C65 TRIDENT AUTOMATIC BLUE/BLUE

Introduction

When Christopher Ward launched the retro style C65 Trident Diver in 2018 they will have hoped it was a success, but I doubt they were expecting it to be quite as successful as it has been. It’s been a great seller and has already spawned many different iterations and special editions.

The earlier models (as identified by having batten hour markers) all had hand-wound movements. They were available with black, green or blue faces (plus a few limited edition specials).

In Jan 2019 CW introduced an automatic version, easily identified by its spots or ‘pips’ for hour markers. There was a black/black, a red/black and this, the blue/blue - all of which are no longer available from CW.

Warranty

It comes with a Ward Hoard three month warranty.

Strap options

It comes on a brand new CW brown leather strap.

If you would prefer it on a hybrid or tide strap, please ask and I’ll sort out some options.

If you would prefer it head only, discount of £40.

Condition

On the timegrapher it is keeping great time, running at +3 sec per day.

It’s in lovely condition - there are a couple of pinpricks to the bezel around 50, but you have to look very hard to see them.

It comes boxed with polishing cloth, manual with certificate of authenticity, covering letter and invoice.
