The Christopher Ward C65 Trident Diver has the design elements of both a functional diver and a dress watch. Its vintage vibe can be fully appreciated once you have it on your wrist. A lug to lug length of 47mm and a thickness of 12mm ensures a comfortable fit, ready for any occasion. The 41mm round stainless steel case has tapering lugs. Expertly polished and brushed surfaces transition with crisp edges. On the right side, a large push-in signed crown. The unidirectional aluminium bezel has a 60-minute insert. A domed sapphire crystal sits above the matte-finished dial. The 12, 6 and batons are coated in Old Radium SuperLumiNova for that vintage feel. Long baton hands coated in the same Old Radium SuperLumiNova, with a seconds hand complete with the signature Trident counterbalance. On the reverse, a screw-down case back, the Trident motif sits proudly in the centre. Inside a Manually Wound Sellita SW-210-1, 19 jewels, 28,800 beats per hour.

Personal Note
Another example of how some incredible watches can be had for not a lot of money at all, especially when you consider the fact this is an incredibly well-executed design, manually wound and in a super wearable case. Christopher Ward and doing amazing things and are showing no sign of slowing down.
