Christopher Ward C1 Bel Canto x Watches@ C01-41APT1-BESP1 LE - 2023
Christopher Ward C1 Bel Canto x Watches@ C01-41APT1-BESP1 LE
Christopher Ward are masters at providing very high quality, and beautifully executed watches at very compelling price points, and with the introduction of the Bel Canto they have also now democratised one of the most storied of complications, the Sonnerie.
Utilising CW's first case made in titanium, it measures in at 41mm with a 48mm lug-to-lug and 13mm thick, and is constructed in such a way as to amplify the sound of the chime as much as possible. For this limited edition piece made in conjunction with Watches@, it houses a magnificent heavily grained main dial surface in a luxurious yellow gold finish.
Atop this dial is the real star of the show. With it's MB&F-esque architecture, the time-telling portion of the dial sits at 12 and leaves an unencumbered view of the chiming mechanism below, and on this particular version features distinctive blued hands.
The movement is pretty special, and is based around a Sellita SW200 with a FS01 chiming module from Christopher Ward atop it, with components made by such industry heavyweights such as Chronode and Armin Strong helping to bring it all together. When the chiming module is activated using the pusher on the side of the case it will chime every hour, and can then be turned off using the same pusher. The result is a chiming watch that is super easy to use, with a very high level of finish, a gorgeous sound, and fantastic wearability.
This particular piece was delivered in October 2023 and remains in TZ Mint condition, with no signs of wear other than perhaps some slight strap creasing. Please see images for full condition details.
Comes with outer sleeve, inner box, cleaning cloth, warranty card dated October 2023, cleaning cloth, owners handbook and Watch Vault cleaning cloth.
You can't go wrong with any of the Bel Canto line, but this LE is our personal fave with its frosted dial and blued hands. Instantly sold out, don't miss your chance to pick up this near-new example today.
