C50 Malvern Chronometer

50-piece Special Limited Edition

The C50 Malvern Chronometer is a watch

that inhabits a unique position in the

Christopher Ward range. As you’d expect

for a watch under the Malvern banner, it’s a

classically elegant dress piece; it features

our Mk II Malvern case, too (and will be

the last CW to do so).

Yet, with the movement found within – the Swiss-

made ETA 2836, COSC-certied and with day date

functionality – shares more in common with the

premium horology of our Grand Malvern Collection.

But the C50 exists within a wholly separate price

bracket; in fact, it may be one of the most aordable

mechanical chronometer-certied models available

anywhere in the world.

The Malvern’s dial design is timeless. Finished in a

rich sunray blue, allowing optimum play with the

light, polished steel indexes have been applied at ve

minute intervals, while the Mk II Malvern steel hour,

minutes and second hands contrast strongly and

ensure legibility.

Combined with the distinctive curved bezel and

straight sided prole of our Mk II Malvern case, not

only does the Malvern Chronometer blend aesthetic

and horological prowess, it also provides the perfect

send o to our trusty case design. Limited to 50 pieces

as it is, the C50’s legacy is conrmed.

How to operate your Malvern Chronometer

Setting the time/date

123 3

1. Crown screw-in position

2. Manual winding

3. Date setting

4. Time setting

Unscrew and then pull out

How to operate your Malvern Chronometer

For a superior water resistance your crown is

of the screw-in type. The crown should sit

ush to the case (position

) in order to maintain

water resistance.

• First unscrew the crown anti-clockwise from the

case to position

for winding in power. Wind in

a clockwise direction to re-power the watch.

Your C50 Malvern COSC has a maximum power

reserve of 38 hours when fully wound.

After a period of non-use, we recommend

manually winding the watch to ensure the rotor

weight sustains the amount of power in the

mainspring whilst worn on your wrist – this can

be done via twenty full revolutions of the crown.

• Pull gently into position

. For rapid day

correction, turn in an anti-clockwise direction.

For rapid date correction, turn in a clockwise

direction.

• Pull gently into position

. This position is used

for handsetting and stopping of the second hand.

For precise time setting it is recommended to

pass beyond the desired minute and to set the

hand backwards.

PLEASE NOTE: Date correction should not be carried

out 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 pushed in after

adjustment, and it is best to do so from position 3

to avoid advancing beyond the desired date.

You must always ensure the crown is fully

tightened before any use in water.

Straps and bracelets

As you would expect, we place as much

emphasis on the quality of our straps and

bracelets as we do our watches. We only use

the nest leathers for our straps. Similarly, we

only use the nest metals in the construction

of our bracelets, all of which are precision

engineered for durability, eciency and comfort.

The following guidelines explain how easy

it is to use and adjust your Christopher Ward

strap or bracelet.

Press to release.

Pull open the clasp

and locate the opening.

Thread the strap through

the opening to the desired

position. Close the clasp.
