WH1368 C60 Trident Pro Automatic Mk1 orange bezel (05/2014)
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 orange/black model - you don’t see many of these, especially in this condition.
Warranty
It comes with a six month Ward Hoard warranty.
Strap
It comes on a very lightly used CW black/orange hybrid strap.
Priced with this strap - other options:
exchange for a brand new CW hybrid or leather (increase of £20),
exchange for a bracelet, please ask
head only, discount of £30.
Condition
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 looks perfect. The rest of the case is also in fabulous condition. It comes in the luxury box with owner’s manual, covering letter and cleaning cloth.
Keeping brilliant time at +4 or 5 spd on the timegrapher.
