Description
Christopher Ward has a long history of pushing against the edges of what is expected at its price point, whether through unconventional design choices or technical ambition. The C60 Sapphire sits squarely in that tradition, not as a complication or a reinvention, but as a willingness to do something more difficult than strictly necessary and see if it worked.
Launched in April 2020, the C60 Sapphire was based on the then-new 40mm Mk3 C60 Trident Pro and used a translucent sapphire dial, backed by blue polycarbonate, to offer a tinted view of the Sellita automatic movement beneath. The display case back provides another view of the movement. Producing that dial required a complex manufacturing process, resulting in a material that is extremely thin, scratch-resistant and visually distinctive. The effect was immediate. It proved popular enough to lead to further versions, including other colour variants and established the idea that the C60 platform could support genuinely experimental ideas without losing its identity as a serious dive watch.
