CHRISTOPHER WARD C3 MALVERN CHRONOGRAPH MKIII

The C3 goes back, way back, to 2005 when CW had just two launch models: the C5 auto and the C3 chronograph quartz. The watch for sale in this listing is it’s third incarnation of the C3 chrono, which was released in 2017 with black, blue and white face options, plus a variety of strap colours.

This particular blue face with brown leather strap option was retired in 2019 (the selling price at the time was £395), but this was one of a handful which found their way into a brief January 2020 release, making it one of the last/youngest batch to leave CW. It’s also one of the last quartz models CW made.

Few would disagree when I say that the C3 got better with each release. By the time they reached the Mk3 the pushers had been refined to give a lovely action - a very nice quality ‘thunk’ when they’re pressed! The deep metallic blue dial catches and reflects any available light and the silver batons are a classy touch.
