C700 GRANDE RAPIDE CHRONOGRAPH

O W N E R ’ S H A N D B O O K

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.

TIME ON YOUR SIDE...

Your C700 Grande Rapide is constructed from the finest components and materials available including one

of Switzerland’s finest automatic movements. As with all watches of this quality, with the right care and

attention, your new Christopher Ward watch has the potential to become an heirloom piece giving further

joy to future generations. It’s for this reason we have created our industry leading approach to after-sales care

which we term the CW360 Watch care Programme. It’s designed to deliver you complete peace of mind

and the best support possible throughout the lifetime of your ownership and has three key elements, namely:

1. 60 DAY FREE RETURNS

Our success depends on you being completely happy with your new Christopher Ward watch. If for any reason you aren’t, you have up to 60

Days to return your watch, absolutely free of charge, and receive a replacement or full refund by return - and without any quibbles from us!

2. FREE 5 YEAR MOVEMENT GUARANTEE

Your watch, at its heart, has a top quality precision engineered Swiss movement – so it’s very unlikely to give you problems with the minimum

amount of care and attention, including a regular service. We recommend you return your watch to us every 3/4 years for a service, so

our expert technicians can keep your fine timepiece in the peak of condition.

3. SERVICING & REPAIRS...THE CHRISTOPHER WARD WAY...

Our innovative approach to servicing and repairing your Christopher Ward watch means that having your watch serviced or repaired doesn’t

mean months of waiting followed by an exorbitant bill - which is pretty much the experience guaranteed by every other luxury watch brand.

We have developed an easy, quick and affordable expert service and repairs programme that doesn’t cost the earth and has your watch back

where it belongs - on your wrist - in double-quick time.
