THE DIAL

Christopher Ward C3 Malvern C3SWT Watch Review

I selected the champagne dial. It's a gorgeous colour, which matches using the chrome figures very well. Looks stunning once the light hits it. Obviously, the azure very using the anti reflective coating around the bottom really helps how this looks too. Causes it to be look very costly. Both your hands are extremely elegant to, I really like how lengthy the moment and 2nd hands are… They almost achieve the advantage from the dial and touch the rehaut! Causes it to be look so classy. The subdial hands match well too. The lume is surprisingly good.If this has already established an effective decent charge, you can observe the lume almost illuminate all of those other dial! I love the way the dial is really on 3 layers - the outer track using the figures, the interior circle having a lovely circular texture, and also the subdials using their own circular texture. The date window is great too, having a circle of chrome around it. Causes it to be look costly, and also the awesome little chrome arrow pointing to it's a neat touch too. It’s nice the old emblem continues to be onto it!

THE MOVEMENT

The timepiece has a Ronda 5040.D movement. Has some great features. First of all, many people believe that the timepiece has stopped once they view it. It since the running seconds hands may be the top right dial, and never the primary seconds hands. That's the stopwatch seconds. This doesn’t bother me whatsoever, as the majority of the chronos I've ever had are just like this. I've read that this can be a real switch off for many people though. The very best left subdial may be the stopwatch minute counter. The underside subdial is fairly clever- for that first thirty seconds it's singleOrtenth of the second timer, which whizzes around every second. Following the first thirty seconds, it stops after which becomes the stopwatch hour timer. Which means this stopwatch is really a 10 hour timer! Pretty neat, when i only have ever endured one hour timers. It uses the typical controls, the top to the start/stop, bottom to relax. But, should you press the underside button when it's running, it functions like a lap timer. So that you can stop it, read what time that it states, after which press the underside again and it’ll zoom back to the present stopwatch time.

THE Situation

The situation is extremely well machined, having a nice number of brushed and polished stainless. The bezel, and the top strap lugs are polished. The edges are brushed, and also the bottom is polished. The chronograph buttons are polished, same with the crown using the classic CW onto it. The situation back about this C3 hasn’t had a serial number onto it, could it have been some kind of display model. The etching from the text and CW is great and deep though. The situation back takes place in position by 7 screws. Constitutes a nice switch to getting a screw in caseback! Appears like a properly made machine with all of individuals screws!

THE STRAP

Nothing particularly to report here, a great ol’ decent quality leather strap. Very comfortable to put on, soft bottom. Solid butterfly clasp too, simply no possibility of this baby popping off my wrist unexpectantly.
