CHRISTOPHER WARD C9 HARRISON BIG DAY-DATE

Introduction

Launched in early 2014 at a cost of £650 for the leather model, the C9 Harrison Big Day-Date, or BDD for short, was Christopher Ward’s ‘affordable’ large dress watch - the 5-Day and Single Pusher models at over 100% and 200% more expensive were at the less affordable end of the scale!

The C9 BDD was retired in 2016, replaced by the C1 Grand Malvern. This particular watch was sold in December 2016, one of the very last to be sold.

Warranty

It comes with a three month Ward Hoard warranty.

Condition

This example is in lovely condition. It is a one former owner, worn on special occasions. If you look closely, you can see the odd scratch or scuff on the polished surfaces including on one of the lugs, but it is very good.

It’s keeping fantastic time at approx. -2sec per day - well inside the +/-20sec specified by CW.

Supplied in its original case with owner’s book/certificate of authenticity and a copy of the standard CW covering letter of the time.

Strap options

The original CW black leather strap with Bader deployant clasp is in almost new condition.

Other options -

Head only - discount of £50.

Exchange for a modern CW vintage oak leather strap (no cost change)

If there is another vintage strap that you like in my straps section, please ask and I’ll give you a price on it.
