WH1083 S70 BRG Limited Edition COSC (11/2017)
Christopher Ward S70 BRG Limited Edition
Introduction
The C70 BRG was launched in March 2013. Born from the success of the Grand Prix series, this was a limited edition of 500 pieces in the popular British Racing Green colour that sold out in March 2014.
The S70 BRG was the COSC version of the BRG. Notable that it carries the S70 model designation instead of the customary C70. This was due to timing of manufacture and release. Originally intended to be a 500 pc. LE such as the other COSC Racing editions of the Rapide series, Production was halted when the decision was made to revamp the Rapide collection.
Warranty
As it is no longer covered by CW’s original warranty, this watch comes with a six month Ward Hoard warranty.
Strap options
Fitting with a brand new tan vintage oak leather strap. If you would prefer head only, I can offer a discount of £40.
Exchange for a new CW hybrid, leather, tropic or tide (no cost change).
Exchange for a bracelet (subject to availability) (an extra £120)
Condition
The C70’s exposed alloy bezel and thinly applied paint make it notoriously delicate, so finding one in good condition is becoming increasingly challenging (CW has long since exhausted its supply of replacement bezels/cases).
This example is in pretty good condition - one of the better ones that I’ve seen.
This watch is offered boxed (later box) with manual, cleaning cloth and COSC certificate.
