WH1150 C60 Trident Pro Automatic Mk1 charcoal bezel (02/2013)
Christopher Ward C60 Trident Pro Automatic Mk1.5 43mm
Introduction
The Mk1 C60 Trident hit the watch world in 2009. It was available in a Henry Ford style ‘any colour you want, as long as it’s black’. The initial price of just £300 was a ridiculous bargain and the watch was an instant hit.
Fast forward to 2012, CW introduced the CHR. WARD logo (replacing the original round CW icon) and also added orange/black, red/red, green/green, charcoal/black, khaki/black and the blue/blue models. I call these the Mk1.5 models as they’re essentially Mk1s, but with the new logo and new colours.
This one is the charcoal/black model - you don’t see many of these.
Warranty
It comes with a six month Ward Hoard warranty.
Strap
It comes on its original bracelet in good, used condition with some light scratches as shown in the photos.
Exchange for a new hybrid, leather, rubber or tide, discount of £50
Head only - discount of £90.
Exchange for good, used CW bracelet with ratchet adjustment (increase of £50)
Condition
This particular watch came from its original owner and has been well cared for.
These Mk1/Mk1.5 models feature applied aluminium bezel inserts which are fairly easily marked compared to the ceramic Mk2/Mk3 cousins.
The bezel on this one is one of the better ones that I’ve seen with just some light marks as shown in the photos.
Keeping almost perfect time on the timegrapher.
Comes boxed (showing some signs of deterioration) with covering letter, owner’s manual with certificate of authenticity and cleaning cloth.
