CHRISTOPHER WARD C65 TRIDENT GMT

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.

If you’re not familiar with GMT watches, they feature an additional hour hand which takes 24 hours to complete one rotation of the dial - making it a perfect international travel partner. This is because you can set the regular hands to your local time and the 24h GMT hand to ‘home’, (the blue bezel zone would be night and the red zone would be daytime) so you can instantly see the time at home and avoid accidentally calling your partner at 3 in the morning to say “hi”! By rotating the bezel, and therefore moving ‘midnight’ to elsewhere on the dial, you can create a third time zone.

Warranty

It’s a March 2021 watch, so the transferable movement warranty from Christopher Ward is valid until March 2026.

Strap

Currently fitted with a bracelet in excellent condition. It has three missing links so will fit a wrist up to c. 6.75 inches. I have some spare links if needed - please ask.

Condition:

It is in very good, used condition. Crystal is clean and there are the usual light marks on the bezel, case and clasp.

It’s keeping perfect time, with the timegrapher registering +/- 0 sec per day.

It comes in the original CW bamboo case with warranty booklet and card, owner’s manual and polishing cloth.
