Description
Launched in 2009, the C70 is one of the most important and, today, most collectable motorsport watches Christopher Ward has produced. It was the line that established CW’s early reputation for bold design, historical storytelling and disruptive value, and proved the brand could build a cult following well beyond dive watches.
The range debuted as the C70 Grand Prix Chronometers, a set of six 500‑piece limited editions, each dedicated to a landmark early Grand Prix race. Powered by ETA quartz chronograph movements, these original models remain the purest expression of the C70 idea. From 2011, the line expanded beyond Grand Prix racing into rallying, aviation‑linked military editions and British motorsport specials, growing into a broad platform that became a cornerstone of CW’s catalogue.
The C70BE1925 Chronometer was released in March 2015 as part of a follow‑up series within the C70 Grand Prix range. It was one of four limited editions of 500 pieces, each commemorating a country’s inaugural Grand Prix. Powered by a COSC‑certified ETA quartz chronograph movement, the BE1925 uses a layout with centrally mounted chronograph seconds and minutes hands and an hours counter at nine o’clock. The inaugural Belgium Grand Prix was held in June 1925, and the winner was Antonio Ascari.
