WH1224 C50 Malvern COSC Mk1 Limited Edition (11/2014)
CHRISTOPHER WARD C50 MALVERN COSC AUTOMATIC MKI
Introduction
Following the huge success of 2005’s C5 Malvern Mk1, CW’s first automatic watch, the guys from Park Street decided to up their dress watch game by launching the C50 Malvern COSC in 2011. The case size was increased from 38 to 39mm, a day/date complication was added and the 400-watch C50 run also happened to be CW’s first 400 chronometer watches (not to be confused with ‘chronograph’ watches, which CW discusses here). Chris and his partners were justifiably proud of their leap into certified COSC chronometer production, a fact reflected by Chris personally autographing the COSC Certificates!
The first 2011 batch of 200 C50 Malvern COSCs had a silver case and the original circular CW logo on its ivory coloured face. The second batch (including this one), was introduced in 2012, had a gold PVD finish to the case and its white face was adorned with the (then) all new CHR. WARD logo.
This is number 161 of 200.
