Silver case version with vintage style black face and ceramic bezel.
Currently on a CW vintage black leather strap. For an additional £70 I could fit a brand new CW Stainless bracelet (final picture shows this model watch on the optional bracelet).
The face features the out-going, central CW logo, so it's slightly different to the current version which is available for £660 here: https://www.christopherward.co.uk/c60-trident-pro-600-vintage-40
This is a Feb 2017 watch with movement warranty valid until Feb 2022.
Note the first four pics are library shots, the next seven show the actual watch, the final one is a library shot showing an optional bracelet.
Condition:
This is a brand new watch on a brand new leather strap, but it has the following defects: there is a mark on the bezel between 40 and 45 minutes. There is another one on the bezel which is harder to see at 57 minutes. There are also some tiny marks on the left side of the case - don't show in photos and you can only see them in certain lights.
Best Price:
In order to comply with eBay rules, I can only discuss "eBay prices" via the eBay message and offer system.
Because eBay charge seller fees, the 'eBay price' is different from the 'best price'.
Please do not message me via eBay for 'direct prices' or 'best prices' etc. as I can only discuss eBay prices (which include the relevant fees) on this platform.

About me:
I often have people asking questions like "Is it real? Why are you selling? How did you come by it?" etc.
As I'm finding myself giving similar replies to similar questions, I thought it would make sense to provide that type of information here, so here goes:
I love Chris Ward watches. I bought my first one in 2008 and have been buying, selling and collecting them ever since.
In much the same way as my number plate business, what started as a small hobby collection has developed into a larger collection with a commercial element.
With both my watch and my number plate collection, I gain (almost) as much satisfaction from buying and owning the item for a week/month/year as I do when I buy for keeps.
Number plates are my hobby, all watches (especially CW) are my hobby and buying/selling is also a hobby.
I'm an opportunistic buyer of watches (and number plates). If I see something I like at a price I like, I'll buy it. Sometimes that's on eBay, sometimes at bona fide auctions, sometimes at invitation only events, sometimes people contact me with watches they want to sell, limited special offer discounts, you get the idea. All products are always 100% genuine, boxed and with paperwork, which CW could verify if you still need reassurance.
I advertise the items I don't mind selling at prices I'd be happy to sell at - that's usually more than I bought them for and on eBay, it's always 10% higher than I actually want due to the fees charged by eBay and PayPal.
If I sell a watch, it gives me more money to buy another one - or sometimes two. So my collection is always growing.
I hope that info was useful and covers any questions or concerns you might have. If not, please drop me a line and I'd be happy to answer.
Best regards,
Dan
