So far so good. I feel proud wearing it almost everyday. I bought two from your store in the past month and I take turns with them.

Was originally thinking the watch diameter was too small but on reflection its the perfect size and a great versatile watch. Took the new sealander on holiday and its great snorkeling and diving to going out on an evening. Very happy

Every interaction has been smooth and handled in a timely manner. On my second order I was made aware of the Military concession and they honored for my initial order.

I am absolutely thrilled with my experience. I ordered the C60 Trident Lumiere, and although the initial estimate stated a 2-month wait, the watch arrived in just one month!
Throughout the process, the customer service was outstanding and incredibly responsive to my inquiries. As for the watch itself—I absolutely love it. The quality is exceptional.
Highly recommended!

I bought a watch on 09/7/26 and since then I still haven’t received a tracking number nor any information regarding my delivery. Despite having a delivery guarantee of 8 business days its been more than 2 weeks and customer service is not giving any visibility of where is my prouduct. I requested a cancellation and I cant even do that.
This is the worst experience I have had for a purchase of this amount($1,500 usd).

The glow doesn’t lost too long nor is it too bright as seen to show on the website and the winding gear inside the watch feels like it’s grinding and now a smooth feel

Bespoke Random Rob collaboration watch, very well executed. This is my 4th CW and I am very happy with it.
Wait time did seem a little excessive. I understand bespoke watches are back burner projects. However, reaching out periodically, if even to say " not yet, but we haven't forgotten you " would be appreciated.

I purchased a bronze watch under the assumption it would develop a patina "over time" as stated on their site. It completely discolored in less than five days of normal wear. When I invoked my legal short-term right to reject under the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015 within the 30-day window, customer service blocked my return, claiming they will not refund if it shows signs of wear. How can a customer discover a rapid cosmetic defect without wearing it? Vague marketing timelines to trap buyers into keeping defective items is unacceptable. Order # 102326939
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the factory team! They are a wonderful, friendly group and an absolute pleasure to communicate with. Special thanks for promptly refunding the money that was collected by mistake.As for the watch itself, I am completely satisfied with both its design and specifications. I really appreciate that despite the large caliber, the watch remains sleek and thin. Furthermore, the chocolate-colored dial is beautifully paired with the bronze case.

The repair to the bezel of my 10year old CW watch made it look like new!

I visited the CW showroom at Hill Dickinson and bought two watches as I couldn't decide which one I liked best. The showroom experience was great and a deal was done on two Tridents. Very pleased with both watches.
My GMT had a slight issue with the crown not pushing in properly every time, which I reported after a month or two. Customer service was excellent and the watch was looked at and repaired under warranty in a couple of weeks. Great communication and slick after sales service. Overall very happy but do feel that the crown issue should have maybe been picked up at QC stage.
Can't fault the watches and service.

Received the c63 gmt though sent for a replacement due to size being small. Even though I did not use the watch at all, not removing any plastic and just checked size removing from the box - it's claimed that watch has scratches and replacement fee is being asked. I have no way to claim the watch arrived with those scratches as no photo exists before delivery. Slow responses from call center and paid for a watch that I can't use with this process.

I have waited over 6 months to write this review which I think is an acceptable period.
The watch I purchased is a c60 atoll 300 shark white. The buying process and delivery were excellent and was delivered when promised.
Now I know that the term GADA watch is somewhat seen as pie in the sky, but in my humble opinion this watch is as close as it gets. It would be as at home on the beach as in the boardroom or dinner date.
The finish and feel of this watch is that of a premium product with the look and finish being no exception. My example is running whilst wearing at +5 sec per week and no batteries or quartz crystal, amazing. I must admit that the odd splash from the grandchildren's paddling pool is probably as close to diving the great barrier reef that it will see but nevertheless the stated water resistance is welcomed.
I must add, as others have mentioned that the watch looks even better than the images on the CW site.

Arrogant company can tell their from Berkshire. Can walk into Rolex, Omega and Tag but CW who's average watch is £1000 is by appointment only, Hilarious. They think their more than they are. The Royal Marines C60 Lympstone that's £1000 none of its profits go back to the forces. Disgraceful when Japanese watch maker Citizen give 100% of the profits of their Red Arrows watches to the RAF yet British Christopher Ward don't give anything back to the Royal Marines. Bulova give 20% of the profits of their Military watches back to American vets. Shame on Christopher Ward. But again they are from Berkshire so what did I expect.

The support team made an exchange request incredibly easy for me. I pre-ordered a 39mm Sealander, a few weeks ago, then just recently CW announced they were releasing a 36mm as well. Upon hearing that, I knew a 36mm would fit better on my wrist so I reached out via phone call, someone picked up quite quickly, I explained what I was hoping to do, he took some details and said they’d get on it. Today, Charlotte emailed me with confirmation that the exchange has been processed and a refund for the difference is being sent to my method of payment. Simple as that!

I bought a new watch strap for my moonphase. I didn’t realise that there had been a design and material change. I much preferred the quality of the original strap. I also don’t like the finish on the metal parts of the Bader bracelet
