Description

The C7 Rapide Chronograph Mk2 was introduced in August 2012 as the successor to Christopher Ward's original motorsport-inspired chronograph. While retaining the same 42mm case size and broad design philosophy of the Mk1, the Mk2 incorporated a revised dial layout and a tachymeter-equipped aluminium bezel, giving the watch a more overtly sporting character while preserving its everyday practicality.

In practical terms, the Mk2 is a 42mm tri-compax quartz chronograph featuring elapsed 1/10th seconds at 12 o'clock, a 30-minute chronograph register at 9 o'clock and running seconds at 6 o'clock. A date window sits at 3 o'clock, while the tachymeter bezel provides a traditional motorsport timing function. At just over 10mm thick, it wears flatter than its dimensions suggest and remains a practical everyday chronograph.

This example has a white dial with Arabic numeral hour markers, rather than the baton-index version.

The watch is in very good condition.

  • Case: Clean with light hairlines only

What's included
