Fitting the bracelet

If you find the bracelet needs adjusting to your wrist we recommend you have it re-sized by a

reputablewatchrepairerorjeweller.Mostlocaljewellerswilleitherdothisforfreeorperhapsmake

a nominal charge for what is a job that should only take a few minutes. It is always best to be

present so a comfortable fit is achieved.

Establishing the length of the bracelet

Place the watch with its separated bracelet on your wrist and estimate the number of links you need

to remove. If you need to remove several links, try to keep the numbers removed from both halves

of the bracelet as equal as possible to ensure that the clasp remains roughly in the middle of your wrist.

but we strongly urge you to adhere

to them to retain the integrity of

Christopher Ward Diamonds

As you might expect, the Christopher Ward approach to diamond watches is as individual as the

watchesthemselves.Morerecentlythequalitycriteriahasbecomemoredemanding,newcutting

methods have been developed and with the advent of a new scientific dimension, the need has

arisen for independent gemological reports for diamond stone. With this in mind Christopher

Ward diamonds are tested by the IGI and the subsequent reports and certificates which use the

4C international grading system are displayed on www.christopherward.co.uk.

The 4C's Certificate of Authenticity

All diamonds are independently tested by the International Gemological Institute (IGI) who

provide us with a certificate authenticating the carat, colour, cut and clarity of the diamonds.

These elements are often referred to as the '4Cs' and are the critical characteristics determining a

diamond’s quality and value. All diamonds are most definitely not the same and at CW we only use

diamond quality levels associated with high end luxury watch brands.

Further information about the diamond grading system and other fascinating diamond facts can be

found on the IGI website www.igiworldwide.com.

The Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS)

This scheme was established in 2003 and is designed to certify the origin of diamond sources which

are free of conflict. The aim is to prevent rebel groups and their rivals from funding their war aims

from diamond sales.

The certification scheme is targeted at preventing 'blood diamonds' from entering

the mainstream rough diamond market. The KPCS originated from a meeting of Southern African

diamond producing states in Kimberely, South Africa in 2002.

In order for a country to be a participant it must ensure:

That every diamond export be accompanied by a certificate

That no diamond is imported from, or to, a non-member of the scheme

That any diamond originating from the country does not finance a rebel or other entity

seeking to overthrow a UN recognised government

All Christopher Ward diamonds (which are from South Africa) are Kimberley Certified and each

invoice is marked accordingly with the KPCS guarantee.
