Quick facts
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 range, 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.
Launched in September 2010, this is a re-release of the C70 GB, uprated to a COSC-rated quartz chronometer movement. The chronograph seconds and minutes hands are both mounted centrally and a a chronograph hours register is in the 9:00 position. A limited edition of 200 pieces.
