Welcome to our world! We are Ward Hoard, a dedicated home for pre‑owned Christopher Ward watches.
What started as a passion has become one of the most trusted places to buy CW pieces online. We curate every watch carefully, ensure honest condition reporting and photograph each model with the detail we’d want if we were buying it ourselves.
Our goal is simple - to make buying a pre‑owned CW as easy and enjoyable as it can be.
Whether you are dipping your toe into the wonderful world of watches, hunting a discontinued classic, upgrading a daily wearer, or adding something special to your collection, you’ll find it here — accurately described, properly inspected and ready to wear.
We release new stock to our mailing list first. Remaining items are added to the site shortly after.
We also have a sister site - the Second Hand Watch Collective, where you can discover brands other than CW.

Quick facts
Reference: C60 Trident Mk3 Pro 600 Limited Edition
Category: Dive
Size: Large / Medium
Movement: Automatic
Condition: Excellent
CW (manufacturer) warranty: Expires January 2028
Buy it if you want: a sought‑after limited edition that delivers a stealth look without sacrificing legibility
Description
The Graphite Special Edition was launched in January 2023 as a 250‑piece limited run and sold out within hours. It is based on the 42mm Mk3 C60 Trident Pro 600, but the execution gives it a very different feel from the standard model. This wasn’t just a colour swap, it was a proper reworking of the look.
The grey PVD case gives the watch a much more subdued and purposeful character. While that case was shared with the now retired C60 Abyss, the rest of the details are unique to the Graphite. The matte black and grey ceramic bezel and the grey dial work extremely well together and give the watch a cohesion that a lot of special editions miss. It is still unmistakably a C60, tough, legible and easy to wear, but it feels darker, quieter and more deliberate. If you like the Trident but want something that stands apart from the regular production models, this one really hits the mark.

Quick facts
Reference: C9 GT40 Limited Edition Automatic
Category: Motor sport
Size: Large
Movement: Automatic
Condition: Very good
Ward Hoard warranty: Six months from date of purchase
Buy it if you want: One of CW’s rarest performance‑leaning C9 informed by Aston Martin’s design language.
Description
Released in August 2015 in collaboration with TMB Art Metal, the C9 GT40 #P‑1075 is a limited edition of just 40 pieces created to mark the car’s back‑to‑back victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1968 and 1969. The connection is more than just conceptual. Set into the caseback is a laser‑cut aluminium disc taken from the wheel spinner of the original GT40 #P‑1075 itself, giving the watch a direct physical link to the car it references.
Speedometer‑inspired numerals, an inclined outer dial ring and a power‑reserve indicator styled like a rev counter give it a clear motorsport identity without relying on chronograph scales or overt racing colours. The power‑reserve in particular is the detail that makes it work for me: it adds mechanical interest, reinforces the automotive theme and gives the dial something to engage with beyond simple timekeeping.
Condition and performance
The watch is in very good condition with only minor signs of careful use.
Case: Clean with light hairlines only
Bezel: Excellent with light marks on the polished surface

Quick facts
Reference: C63 Sealander Automatic
Category: Adventure
Size: Medium
Movement: Automatic
Condition: Excellent
CW (manufacturer) warranty: Expires July 2029
Buy it if you want: one of the best GMT adventure watches out there, elevated in this special edition.
Description
For a long time CW was missing a proper everyday automatic. There were great divers and interesting one‑offs, but nothing that really nailed the brief of a watch you could put on every morning and not think about. When the Sealander arrived in April 2021, they pretty much hit it out of the park. The 39 mm GMT version extends the same formula with a second time zone without complicating the design
At 39 mm, the case size works well on most wrists and wears slimmer than its dimensions suggest. The GMT hand is integrated cleanly into the dial, preserving legibility and keeping the watch feeling balanced rather than busy. Build quality is solid without feeling delicate, and the overall design remains neutral enough to work on a bracelet or strap. It’s an easy watch to live with day to day, offering added practicality while retaining the simplicity that defines the Sealander line.
This particular version is the COSC Silver Special Edition, built and released for the July 2024 sale. Limited to just 50 pieces, it pairs a simple silver dial with a Sellita SW330‑2 COSC movement. As you’d expect, it sold out quickly. The changes are meaningful, adding chronometer‑rated accuracy and a more refined look without altering the underlying formula.
Condition and performance
The watch is in excellent condition with just light signs of wear.
Case: No significant issues observed
Bezel: No issues observed
Crystal: Clear, no marks
Supplied on a used CW bader bracelet in very good condition complete with all spare links.
Comes boxed with owner’s manual and warranty booklet / card. No COSC
Timegrapher: Approximately +4 seconds per day.
