Christopher Ward C5 Malvern 595

I never appreciated how remarkable the Malvern 595 really is until I first held one in my hands. At just 5.95mm high, it’s the slimmest watch Christopher Ward watch has ever produced by over 2mm (the previous thinnest being the 8.25mm C5 Slimline Square).

It’s a sleek, classic, and (obviously) very slim dress watch which at 39mm diameter screams subtlety and class in equal quantities.

No longer available from Christopher Ward (when it was, it cost £595 on a leather strap), the C5 Malvern 595 was launched in Jan 2018 and was retired at the end of 2019 - with the last few pieces being sold in early 2020. This particular watch was bought in Jan 2020 by the original owner, who sold it on to me in new and unworn condition - which has continued to be the case under my ownership. With the 60 month Christopher Ward movement warranty being transferrable, it’s covered to Jan 2025.
