Christopher Ward C11 Titanium Extreme 1000 Limited Edition Chronometer
Introduction
The C11 Extreme is the daddy of the C11 range: waterproof to 1000m, 1000 of them made and they were £1,000 when you could buy them!
It was available between 2014 and 2016 and was a great way for CW to say goodbye to the C11 range - going out with a 15mm tall bang! A watch of that height (thanks to its 4mm crystal and thicker case back - required to achieve that 1,000m dept rating) and with lime green markers is never going to be subtle, but thanks to its clean design and the Titanium sheen of the case, it’s still got class.
The three ‘crowns’ are actually a helium escape valve on the left, adjustment of internal rotating bezel on the top right and the watch crown is middle right.
It’s a Limited Edition of 1,000 and they’ve been off sale for over seven+ years now, so most have found their way to collectors - as the years have ticked by, there are less and less appearing for sale. This one is a nice low number - number 0006 of 1000.
Warranty
It has just come back from CW for a service so it is covered by CW until the middle of January 2026.
Strap
It comes on the original black rubber strap in fabulous condition - the black rubber tend to deteriorate around the holes - there are minimal signs of that on this one, it looks almost like new.
Please ask if you would like an alternative CW strap (e.g. black hybrid) and I’ll find some options and price it up for you.
Condition
It's in good, used condition with the odd marks on the bezel and case. Most significant is a ding below the 6 as shown under macro.
It’s a ‘full set’ including box, polishing cloth, COSC certificate, covering letter and user book with Certificate of Authenticity, and service documentation - all in excellent condition.
Running within COSC spec on the timegrapher at -1 or 2.

Final Notes
The first seven photographs are library shots, the rest all show the actual watch and package.
Having followed CW for many years, I’ve observed a few of instances of crowns being pulled out/off of MSL versions. While I’ve not seen it on a Makaira, it’s still advised to take extra care when pulling the crown out to the time-adjusting position three. (note the crown on this watch feels perfect)
