Christopher Ward C60 Lympstone 42mm
Introduction
The C60 Lympstone is named after the Royal Marines’ Commando Training Centre at Lympstone in Devon. With CW’s close relationship with the UK military and its long history of creating bespoke, military only limited runs, the Lympstone is one of a handful of CW watches to make military editions available to the public.
The ‘public’ military models started with a batch of C65s in 2019. They were the Dartmouth (named after the Royal Naval School), the Cranwell (named after the RAF College) and the Sandhurst (named after the The Royal Military Academy where army officers are trained).
In August 2020 CW added a fourth military model, which is the Lympstone for sale here. And in 2021 the Colchester joined the party (developed for and in conjunction with the British Army's Parachute Regiment).
The Lympstone is an unashamedly rugged interpretation of CW’s best selling C60 Trident Pro 600. It features a forged carbon face, chunky external bezel cut-outs, an internal rotating bezel with compass markers and plenty of X1 GL C1 Super-LumiNova® lume - not to mention the COSC certified automatic SW200 movement.
This is a current model which is available via CW for £1,100.
