C40 SpeedHawk™ Automatic Chronograph

OWNER’S HANDBOOK

Time on your side...

Your Christopher Ward watch has been designed and engineered by highly talented craftspeople to

ensure not only accurate and precise timekeeping but also to bring a real pride of ownership that

only luxury items of the highest quality can ever hope to deliver.

You have made an investment, a good one, and the aim of this handbook is to help you make the

most of that investment during what I hope will be a lifetime of ownership.

Caring for your Christopher Ward automatic watch

Your C40 SpeedHawk™ Automatic Chronograph is constructed from the finest components

and materials available including one of Switzerland’s finest automatic movements. As with all

mechanical watches of this quality, with just a little care, it has the potential to become an heirloom

piece giving further joy to future generations.

Here are a few hints to help keep your watch working perfectly over the years:

• Neverfullywindyourwatchifitstops,5-10revolutionsshouldsufficetohaveitrestart.

• Tryandwearyourwatcheveryday,ifpossible,asthiswillbothenableittokeepbettertime

as well as preventing the lubricants in the movement from solidifying.

• YourwatchisfittedwiththefinestIncabloc™anti-shocksystemwhichshouldprotectitif

dropped onto a carpeted surface. However, it is best to avoid hard surfaces or sharp knocks.

You may not want to wear your watch whilst playing racquet sports, for instance.

• Therearemanydifferingviewsabouttherightfrequencyforservicingyourwatch,rangingfrom

2 to 7 years! A modern mechanical watch like yours shouldn’t need servicing more than every 4

years but we wouldn’t recommend leaving it longer than this as, just like a car, the oil needs

topping up from time to time.

• Alwaysuseareputablewatchrepairertocleanandlubricateyourwatch.

Shouldyouneedareplacementpart-don’tworry,wekeepstocksofsparepartsforyears,evenfor

discontinued models. It’s all part of the Christopher Ward service.

Finally, don’t forget our famous 60:60 Guarantee allows you to return your watch absolutely free,

for any reason, and with no quibbles, for up to 60 days after purchase and we also guarantee your

movement for up to 60 months.

After all, why shouldn’t you enjoy peace of mind as much as you enjoy your watch?

Your watch should also be thoroughly rinsed in fresh water after immersion in salt water.

You must always ensure the crown is fully tightened before any use in water.

Push the crown back into position until flush

Please note:

The date can not be changed during the date changing phase

between 20.00 hr and 02.00 hr as the watch gearing will already

be aligning itself to change the date.

The crown should always be screwed in after adjustment, and

it is best to do so from position 3 to avoid advancing beyond

the desired date.
