Here we have a 2022 Christopher Ward C63 Sealander Hunter Green that has a 39mm 316L marine-grade stainless steel Light-catcher case that gently curves over your wrist with tapered lugs and a lug-to-lug length of 45.5mm and a case thickness of 11mm, ensuring a comfortable fit. Brushed and polished surfaces transition with crisp edges that play with the light as you rotate your wrist, hence the name. A screw-down signed crown with an embossed Christopher Ward motif is on the right side. A polished and brushed smooth bezel holds an anti-reflective sapphire crystal. The Hunter Green dial features a unique hand-distressed ‘ombré’ finish, an outer minute track with printed Arabic numerals, and an orange pip. Surrounding the dial are applied bevel-edged steel diamond-polished baton indexes, with a strip of Super-LumiNova Grade X1 BL C1 down their centres to mark the hours. The polished edges catch the light in a magical way. At 6 o’clock, a colour-matched date window. Brushed and polished steel hands are filled with the same luminance complemented by an orange-tipped sweeping second hand, complete with the characteristic Trident counterweight. Text is precisely applied with a splash of orange at 6 o’clock, indicating its water resistance. This go-anywhere, do-everything watch is perfectly balanced. On the reverse, a screw-down exhibition case back, inside an Automatic Sellita Cal. SW200-1, 26 jewels, 28,800 beats per hour, with a bespoke “Colimaçoné” finishing (a type of twisting sunray graining). The rotor has a double Twin-flag engraving across it. It is paired with its original Christopher Ward 20mm green canvas strap and a signed pin buckle. The watch also comes with its Christopher Ward presentation box and papers.

Christopher Ward is always pushing the boundaries of what's expected from collectors, this is very apparent with their recent releases, yet they also surprise us with something as 'simple' as a dial like we see here with this impressive C63 Sealander 39mm 'Hunter Green'. Featuring a rough 'scratched' surface that draws your eyes inwards, a lovely addition to an already great watch. I would not hesitate to add this to your collection today!

About Christopher Ward
More Less

In 2005, Mike France, Peter Ellis, and Christopher Ward embarked on a pioneering venture by founding the world’s first online-only watch brand. Their journey began in an unassuming setting—a converted chicken shed located on a picturesque farm in Berkshire, England. With a vision to revolutionise the watch industry, the trio launched two initial models: the C5 Malvern Automatic and the C3 Malvern Chronograph. Shortly after the brand's debut, a significant turning point came when Dave Malone, a lecturer from Tasmania with a passion for horology, spotted an advertisement featuring their watch powered by an ETA 2824–2 automatic movement. Intrigued by the product, Malone decided to purchase one with the intention of writing a critical review for Timezone.com, one of the world’s largest online watch forums. However, contrary to his original plan, Malone's review turned out to be incredibly favourable, declaring the watch to be the “best value mechanical watch in the world.” This affirmation was a game-changer for Christopher Ward, leading to a substantial surge in sales and solidifying the brand's reputation within the watch community. Recognising the potential for growth and the need for innovation, Christopher Ward sought to enhance their offerings. In 2008, after garnering significant acclaim from industry experts and collectors alike, the company began collaborating with Synergies Horlogères, a Swiss watchmaking firm based in Biel, Switzerland. Owned by Jörg Bader, Synergies Horlogères shared Christopher Ward’s vision for creating intricately designed movements and exceptional timepieces. The collaboration marked the beginning of a rigorous period of research, design, and development. After years of hard work, the fruits of their labour were revealed in 2014 with the introduction of their groundbreaking in-house movement, Calibre SH21. This remarkable achievement was not only notable for being a high-quality mechanical movement but also for being the first innovative and financially viable movement developed by a British watch brand in over half a century. The announcement sent ripples through the watch industry, further establishing Christopher Ward as a formidable player dedicated to redefining the standards of luxury and craftsmanship in horology.
