SOLD WH1482 C50 Malvern COSC Mk2 Limited Edition (08/2016)
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!
It was voted by the CWL Forum as Watch of the Year for 2011.
The C50 Malvern COSC Mk II was released in October 2015 as a limited edition of 200 pieces as essentially a restyle of the Mk I version.
This is number 111 of 200.
Condition
It is in nice, used condition and is keeping great time.
Presented boxed with owner’s manual/certificate of authenticity and COSC certificate - a lovely example.
