CHRISTOPHER WARD C65 TRIDENT AUTOMATIC BLACK/RED

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 blue/blue and this one, a red/black - all of which are no longer available from CW. This one has the screw down crown.

Warranty

It comes with the Christopher Ward transferable warranty to August 2026.

Strap options

It comes on a brand new CW vintage oak brown leather strap.

If you would prefer it on a brand new CW hybrid, tide or different colour leather strap, no cost change.

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

Condition

On the timegrapher it is keeping great time, running at +2 sec per day.

It’s in lovely condition - nothing of note to draw your attention to other than a slight mark on the bezel between 5 and 10.

It comes boxed with manual, warranty card and booklet and cleaning cloth.
