Quick facts
Description
The C65 range only really came into focus in 2018. Earlier uses of the name were essentially variations on the C60 and never quite stood on their own. That changed with the release of the C65 Trident Diver, which marked CW’s first deliberate move into the retro dive space and the point at which the C65 became a platform rather than a side note. This was also the first diver to use the Light‑catcher case, bringing a more sculpted and fluid profile to a category that had previously been more utilitarian in CW’s lineup. From there the C65 quickly expanded into a broader family, covering vintage divers, military styles and more experimental offshoots, and in the process began to rival the C60 as the brand’s defining dive watch.
Launched in July 2021 as a limited edition of 150 (which sold out in a single day!), the story of the C65 Divetimer Special Edition begins in 1962 with Dr Hannes Keller – physicist, mathematician and extreme deep-sea diver. The watch is powered by the hand-wound Sellita SW210 movement, being used for the last time in a Christopher Ward watch. The movement has a power reserve of 42 hours, and thanks to its 3.35mm height, the watch’s Light-catcher™ case is both slim and elegant.
The dial is dominated by the precision-printed decompression scale, with bands of orange contrasting with the deep blue base. The brushed and polished indices – vital when using the scale – add depth and clarity, with legibility enhanced by the bâton-style hands.
