C7 Rapide Chronograph Quartz

Perhaps the most crucial part of F1 – away

from the sheer thrill of drivers duelling

through a chicane, or attempting to

overtake at speeds exceeding a none-

too-terrifying 200mph – is precision. In a

lifestyle where a second can prove crucial

between standing on the podium or in the

paddock, the C7 Rapide Chronograph Quartz

embodies those values of accuracy through

its Ronda 5021.D chronograph movement.

For those who are more xated by the glamour

of race weekend, the Chronograph Quartz has

been embellished with a new aesthetic exclusive to

Christopher Ward. Motorsport watches need to be bold,

legible, dynamic; the Quartz Chronograph manages

each of those things, with our vision of an automotive

watch mirroring the excitement of the industry that

inspired it. Double height numerals at 12 o’clock,

surrounded by indexes that emphasise depth and

shadow across the dial, indicate the exact high-octane

energy we set out to achieve.

And that’s before any mention is made of the

four-piece case, which is both our most complex

construction and most expensive to produce. We

worked closely with our case manufacturer to ensure

that it could appear in the Quartz Chronograph

in its full glory; the results are brilliantly powerful.

Now to show it o during a day down at the track…

Unscrew and then pull out

How to operate your C7 Rapide Chronograph Quartz

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

• Pull gently into position

. 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 24.00 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.

To stop the timing, press push-

button A

more and read the 2 chronograph counters,

for example: 2 hours /10 mins / 8 seconds.
