Conceived in 2004 by three young chaps in a boat upon a stream Thames, Christopher Ward watches have endeavored to be "the cheapest many expensive watches in a world". To that end, their watches have embraced peculiarity in materials, movements, pattern as well as execution during an accessible cost point.

The C60 GMT comes in 2 flavors, a familiar seeking Pepsi bezel with white hands as well as indices, as well as a rather unique seeking dark brown dial as well as bezel with orange hands as well as indices.

Fit & Finish

I've h ad a chance to outlay a couple of days with a orange-accented C60 GMT as well as have come away with a little really positive impressions. First of which, this is an awfully comfortable watch upon my 7.25" wrist interjection to a integrated tag wise cleaningly opposite a case. The distance (42mm) as well as weight (90g) have this watch a wish to wear. The dial features a subtly detailed rich brown dial with call texture. The sea thesis continues with a trident shape getting dressed a non-business finish of a seconds hand. A 60-click bezel as well as 30 atm (1000 ft) H2O insurgency do not hurt either.

Lume is utterly great upon a vast hands, though a orange indices blur out next to a smaller, brighter minute markers around a dial. Legibility continues to be a thesis along a bezel with traditional 24hr markings for a orange GMT hand.

A Fantastic Heart

Inside a sea class immaculate steel box (polished upon top, brushed upon a sides) you'll find a well-spoken circuitous ETA 2893-2 automatic movement beating away. Strap options embody tanned hide with accented stitching, immaculate steel with moth grip or, for $175 more, we can ascent to Louisiana alligator skin.

The examination unit we perceived came with a customary tanned hide strap, that we found utterly comfortable. On a whole, it's formidable to find much to complain about with a C60 GMT. The sum have been indeed considerable for a watch during this cost point. The fit as well as finish should meet or surpass anyones expectations for a underling $1,000 watch.
