Christopher Ward C60 Trident Chronograph Pro 600
Introduction
The automatic C60 Chronograph was launched in 2016 at a cost of £1,400 (or £1,450 on a bracelet).
It’s 43mm across (excluding crown), it stands at a none-too-shy 17mm tall and it weighs at a hefty 230 grams on a full length bracelet - so it’s no surprise to learn these Mk2 C60 Chronos are affectionately known at The Beast! They’re not all brute force and ignorance though. When you start looking in closely you can see many nice details, like the polished detailing on the case, the metalic sub dial rings contrasting against the dark blue, multi-layer face with Guilloche waves. I particularly like the ‘breather’ running second hand dial - a relatively unusual feature.
At its heart is the famous and trusty ETA 7750 Valjoux movement - as used in the current £1,800 C60 and C65 Chronograph models. The same calibre can be found inside many other premium watch brands such as Breitling, TAG Heuer, Panerai, Omega, IWC etc.
This model was retired in June 2019.

Condition
Offered boxed (luxury box) with owner’s manual/certificate of authenticity and polishing cloth.
As you can see from the timegrapher photo, it’s keeping very good time at +9 seconds per day.
It’s in pretty good condition all round, with just a couple of marks on the lugs (and a small ding) where straps have been changed in the past.
