C65 Black Gold Limited Edition

Little did we know before the release of 2018’s C65 Trident Diver,

but its outstanding public reaction would almost singlehandedly

carve out a new genre in the Christopher Ward Collection: one

devoted to the dive watches of yesteryear.

The C65 Black Gold Limited Edition is the latest addition to the

C65 family, and it doubles as a celebration of the Diver’s inuence.

It hits many of the same notes in its design: the large Arabic

numerals at 12 and 6 o’clock; rectangular indexes and baton

shaped hands; a slim and wearable case housing a hand-wound

mechanical movement. Yet the Black Gold certainly marks one of

our more extravagant additions.

As you might expect given its title, black and gold are present:

the former on the C65’s DLC backplate and aluminium bezel,

the latter adorning its graceful ‘light-catcher’ case in a rich tone

of PVD. It’s a colour scheme that not only evokes memories of the

sleek Lotus F1 cars that struck success in the ‘60s and ‘70s, but in

the case of this C65, it heightens its vintage cues.

In a collection renowned for its lithe ‘60s aesthetic, this 200-piece

limited edition’s regal looks may just represent a new pinnacle.

How to operate your C65 Black Gold Limited Edition

The crown should sit ush to the case (position 1) in order to

maintain water resistance. To re-power the watch after a period of

non-use, simply wind the crown in a clockwise direction until you

begin to feel a resistance. Your C65 Black Gold Limited Edition has

a maximum power reserve of 42 hours when fully wound.

To set the time pull out the crown gently into position 2.

This position is used for handsetting and stopping of the second

hand. Turn the crown until you reach the correct time e.g. 10.08 hr.

For precise time setting it is recommended you pass beyond

the desired minute and to set the hand backwards.

Setting the time and date

PLEASE NOTE: As this watch has a manually

wound mechanical movement, take care

not to overwind the crown past the point of

resistance as it will damage the movement.

1. Manual winding

2. Time setting

If using the bezel for a dive and let’s say the recognised maximum “no-stop

time” is 55 minutes, then in this example (shown right) the time at the

surface immediately before the dive is 10.08am. However the bezel marker

is at the 12.00 hr position. Move the bezel marker anti-clockwise so that it

aligns with the 8 minute position. You can now read that the 55 minute no

decompression limit will occur at 3 minutes past the next hour.

PLEASE NOTE: It is always useful and best practice to make a note on a dive slate before

entering the water and to carry a set of dive tables should the dive plan change during the

course of a dive. A safety stop for 3 to 5 minutes at 15ft is recommended at the end of all

dives. A safety stop for 3 minutes at 15ft is required any time you come within 3 pressure

groups of a no decompression limit, and for any dive to a depth of 100ft or deeper.
