2025 Christopher Ward C63 Sealander GMT 39mm White

Here we have a 2025 Christopher Ward C63 Sealander GMT White, featuring a 39mm 316L marine-grade stainless steel Light-catcher case that gently curves over your wrist, with tapered lugs, a lug-to-lug length of 45.5mm, and a case thickness of 12mm, 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. On the right side is a screw-down signed crown with an embossed Christopher Ward motif. A fixed 24-hour circular brushed and polished bezel features black lacquer-filled numerals and supports a scratch-resistant anti-reflective sapphire crystal. The white, polished, lacquered dial has an outer minute chapter ring with printed Arabic numerals and an orange pip, applied, bevelled, gun-metal 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. At 6 o’clock, a colour-matched date window. Brushed and polished gun-metal hands are filled with the same Super-LumiNova Grade X1 BL C1 complemented by an orange-tipped GMT arrow hand and 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 SW330-2, 25 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. The watch comes paired with a Christopher Ward 20mm 3-link brushed stainless steel bracelet secured by a signed clasp; all links are provided, and the watch also comes with its Christopher Ward presentation box and papers.

This watch is sold with its original Christopher Ward presentation box and Paperwork. It is paired with its original Christopher Ward 20mm 3-link brushed stainless steel bracelet secured by a signed clasp; all links are provided. The watch is from July 2025 and is sold in worn condition, but overall, it is in very fair condition, as you can see from the photographs. The watch comes with our 12-Months Warranty.

If you are after a well-built Swiss-made GMT that won't break the bank, offers a wonderful design and can be had for under £1,000, your options are very limited. But this Christopher Ward C63 Sealander GMT offers all that and more, for well under £1,000. I wouldn't hesitate on this one if you are interested. This is a watch that will stick around for a long time in a collection as a go-to piece!

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.
