Having this issue with the micro adjustment ability of the clasp. Anyone else have this issue? I assume it should be locking into place on the other positions, not just the first one. Making sure I’m not crazy before contacting their customer service. Thanks CW community.
Describing something as “fire” never really resonated with me - until I saw the dial on this “Scintillante” limited edition version of the Bel Canto. Sometimes orange, sometimes pink, always red, the way the light catches the guilloché pattern of the dial is mesmerising, especially in sunlight.
I also have the titanium Consort bracelet that I’ll usually wear it on, but for now the white leather strap looks absolutely stunning.
I’m taking it for a walk on the common now to show it off to the local wildlife and dog walkers.
Newest addition to my collection.
My watch collection has fluctuated a lot over the past 18 months.
Managed to get into the luxury space, realised it wasn't too much to my taste and ended up losing a lot of money.
Finally finding my feet as to what I actually enjoy and I have to admit, this CW feels superb on the wrist.
Just received the new 39mm. Just wondering if anyone has the same where there is a tiny gap at top and underneath the crown? Photos hopefully show what I mean
It’s screwed in TIGHT and still has that tiny gap. Unscrewing it does have the “pop” spring so I’m pretty sure everything is cool and it’s just a design thing with the crown not being perfectly fit into the guards but wanted to check before I jump into any water!
I was looking for a summertime watch and here it is. I had been eyeing a few CW’s for a while but never really got past that point. So when I got a recent work bonus I decided to pull the trigger on this one. Definitely on the large side even with my big wrist, but slimmer than I thought, which is nice. It will definitely get some good wrist time during these warmer months in the sun, and may lead to some more CW’s down the road. Cheers!
The new ILink bracelet is actually pretty great - so easy to use.
But I found the lack of a half link left me annoyingly on the cusp of it either being too tight/loose depending on +1/-1 link.
I searched all over - CW told me there were no half links.
But....I had an extra half link laying around from a 42mm Trident Pro on the Bader bracelet, and it fit perfectly!
I searched for this answer before I found my links (I hid them with the box/rubber strap and just found them), but I was sharing in case anyone else was racking their brain trying to figure this out.
Looks like I got this one right under the wire. Don’t see this one on the site anymore but I absolutely love it. R/watchCollector
Bought this online on May 9th and it said it would not arrive until mid June. However, it shipped on May 14th and arrived today May 20th. It looks amazing. The white dial is awesome!!!
After my I-link broke at work I swapped to this Amazon strap and all has been good. I love the watch! Somehow, even with all the moving and working I’m doing the watch is still never outside of COSC (-4,+6) even though its only rated (-5,12)
Final prep is well underway for our Chicago showroom as we welcome those first appointments in tomorrow!!
The building we are in is 103 years old and a true testament to the history of Fulton Market. We’ve retained so much of its character including one of the old cold storage doors, the original brick and a feeling that only buildings like this can have.
Wish us luck today …
We cannot wait to welcome you in !!

Christopher Ward
This is a one-time, bespoke limited edition of only 75 pieces worldwide, fully designed by me and built by Christopher Ward.
Status
The order page is now live! After our 5-day priority window for project members, nearly 50 pieces are already sold. Once all 75 pieces are spoken for, this edition will never be produced again.
The Story
My vision was to take the technical soul and dial complexity of the amazing C7 Apex, and incorporate it into a highly wearable 40.5mm Traveller GMT. With a color palette inspired by a legendary mechanical hero and featuring an iconic ‘Pepsi’ style internal bezel, this is designed as a truly distinctive watch, well deserving of its ‘PRIME’ name.

How to Order (subject to availability)
As my first bespoke project ever, it's been quite an amazing experience and I appreciate all the support in making this happen.
Even if you do not plan on ordering this, I am very curious to hear your feedback and thoughts!
Hello, I am hoping someone can recommend or share pics of this watch. Wondering how people who have it like it, and are the pictures on CW’s website accurate color wise. With the updated Sealander being out and similar price I’m torn on if this one is still worth it. But the color is such a draw to me. Reminds me so much of the ocean and happy vacations.
Having both in hand, I think they’re both different enough from each other to exist in someone’s collection. Curious to know which one people would prefer (mainly design wise, Tudor obviously superior movement and finishing wise)
I really love my Lumiere but it has had this issue from day 1 that hasn't been solved even after being sent into repair and coming back.
Even after 70-80 winds and wearing it all day, when I leave it face up overnight it stops after a few hours and gets stuck and doesn't start back up until I pick it up and shake it. Is this just in need of break in? Should I just keep wearing it and hoping it gets fixed by itself? No the watch isn't magnetized I checked with my phone magnetometer.
This is not to dog on CW technicians, they serviced my watch replacemed the second hand and regulated my watch since it was out of cosc. They even did my engraving for free. When I told them about the issue they just said to wind it morez which I did but it's not fixing the issue.
Looking for some help on strap purchases. I have the previous gen C63 Sealander with the black dial 36mm. I love it! I have seen the new model and I love it however not enough to replace the model I have (although that pistachio is talking to me ha ha) and the pics of the new black dial with the rubber cross hatch strap makes it look great. So question is have any previous gen owners bought the new straps and do they fit the profile (not the width that's not an issue) OR could anyone recommend a rubber black strap similar to the one currently available? For context the way the strap fits around the curve of the case and dial looks perfect. Only difference I can see in the model dimensions is height.
Does anybody own the 39mm in black? I really want to see some wrist shots... if you'd be so kind to take some pics. Thinking of purchasing soon. I like the new Sealanders more. What about you guys.
I just got my first Christopher Ward in. I think it’s a stunning watch. I am debating about the size. Do you think the 40mm is too small for my wrist?
