    Christopher Ward Spotlights GMT Collection and Announces Future Price Increase

    Christopher Ward has released an editorial overview of their GMT collection, highlighting the history and technical aspects of this popular complication. The brand currently offers several models in this category, including the C63 Sealander GMT, the 41mm Sealander Extreme GMT, and the C60 Trident GMT 300. Sizes across the GMT range are designed to suit various wrist sizes, featuring cases from 36mm to 44mm. The newsletter details the brand's use of the Sellita SW330-2 movement, which powers models like the C63 Sealander GMT. This movement is classified as a 'caller' GMT, featuring a 56-hour power reserve and a date function. While the brand acknowledges the existence of 'true' GMT movements used by brands like Rolex, they currently focus on 'caller' GMT calibres, though they note they may explore 'true' GMT movements in the future. In a significant administrative update, Christopher Ward announced an upcoming price increase effective April 2, 2026. The brand states that they have absorbed supply increases and currency fluctuations for two years, but will now adjust pricing to stay true to their 3x cost-to-retail model. Customers have until midnight GMT on April 1, 2026, to purchase watches at current prices.
