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 khaki model - a stunning and extremely rare colour.

Warranty

It comes with a three month Ward Hoard warranty.

Strap

It comes on its original NATO strap. Whilst there is no CW branding, the former owner has owned it from new and so he is a pretty reliable source!

Priced with this strap

- exchange for a new CW hybrid or leather (increase of £20),

- exchange for a Mk2 polished centre link ratchet bracelet (increase of £100),

- exchange for a Mk1 polished centre link pin adjust bracelet (increase of £70)

-head only, (decrease 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 is excellent with just a few light marks most notably between 45 and 50. The rest of the case is also in very good condition.

Keeping very good time at around +7 spd on the timegrapher.

Comes complete with a full set box in great condition, unused polishing cloth, manual, covering letter and original invoice.

This is a ‘one-owner’ watch. It’s a real credit to its former owner, it’s been very well looked after and rarely worn.
