Christopher Ward

Christopher Ward is a British watch brand founded in 2004 by childhood friends Christopher Ward, Mike France, and Peter Roberts. The brand was established with the goal of creating high-quality, luxury watches at a more accessible price point compared to traditional Swiss brands. Christopher Ward aims to combine Swiss watchmaking techniques with British design aesthetics. They focus on direct-to-consumer sales, which allows them to offer their watches without the traditional retail markup. The brand is known for its commitment to transparent pricing and its "intelligent rather than expensive" philosophy. Christopher Ward produces a wide range of mechanical and quartz watches, including dive watches, dress watches, and chronographs. Notable collections include the C60 Trident series, which features their popular dive watches, and the C65 Aquitaine line, known for its vintage-inspired dive watch designs. They also offer watches with in-house movements, such as the Calibre SH21.
