What We Fancy

The England-based Christopher Ward sent shockwaves through the industry last year with the 300-piece limited edition release of their new C1 Bel Canto. For as long as timepieces have been chiming they have been essentially inaccessible to us average Joe’s because they cost as much as a college education. Until last year with this incredible release. Yes, CW figured out how to manufacture a movement that would allow a chiming watch to cost less than 90% of modern sports Rolex. An incredible achievement and now that I’ve seen one in person… wow. The first run of 300 pieces sold out in mear minutes. Learn more about this piece by clicking here.
