quality standards can hope to deliver.
You have made an investment, a good one, and the aim of this

C60 Shadow Special Edition
In watchmaking, practicality and horological excellence aren’t always
natural bedfellows.
But then, your C60 Shadow Special Edition isn’t an ordinary watch.
As you can see (and feel), this is a timepiece that combines
understated design – witness the matte-grey dial – with a durability
that makes it ideal for adventures on land and at sea (it’s waterproof
to 300m).
But that’s just the start of the story.
What makes the Shadow such an exceptional timepiece is something
less obvious: namely, Christopher Ward’s in-house Calibre SH21
automatic movement.
Thanks to its twin-barrel construction, SH21 boasts a power reserve
of ve days – something that can be monitored by the subdial at
9 o’clock on the dial.
And because you value precision as much as we do, SH21 is also a
COSC-certied chronometer, putting it in the top six per cent of
Swiss movements for accuracy.
Of course, we could tell you more about the watch but the only
way to get yourself truly acquainted with your C60 Shadow Special
Edition is take it out into the world.
You’re going to have a lot of fun together.

How to operate your C60 Shadow Special Edition
For a superior water resistance your crown is of the screw-down
type. The crown should sit ush to the case (position 1) in order
to maintain water resistance.
• First unscrew the crown anti-clockwise from the case to position
2for winding in power. Wind in a clockwise direction to re-power
the watch. Your C60 Shadow Special Edition has a maximum
power reserve of 120 hours when fully wound. Normal wearing
will allow the rotor to start re-powering the watch over time after
putting on your wrist.
• Pull gently into position 3. For rapid date correction, turn in an
anti-clockwise direction.
• Pull gently into position 4. This position is used for handsetting
and stopping of the seconds hand. For precise time setting it is
recommended to pass beyond the desired minute and to set the
hand backwards.

Unscrew and then pull
PLEASE NOTE:
Date correction should not be carried out between 20.00 hr and
02.00 hr as the watch gearing will already be aligning itself to
change the date. The crown should always be pushed in after
adjustment, and it is best to do so from position 3to avoid
advancing beyond the desired date. You must always ensure the
crown is fully tightened before any use in water.

How to operate your C60 Shadow Special Edition
If using the bezel for a dive and let’s say the recognised maximum
“no-stop time” is 55 minutes, then in this example (shown right)
the time at the surface immediately before the dive is 10.10am.
However the bezel marker is at the 12.00 hr position.
• Move the bezel marker anti-clockwise so that it aligns with the
10 minute position.
• You can now read that the 55 minute no decompression limit
will occur at 5 minutes past the next hour.
Diving with your watch
PLEASE NOTE:
It is always useful and best practice to make a note on a dive slate
before entering the water and to carry a set of dive tables should the
dive plan change during the course of a dive. A safety stop for 3 to 5
minutes at 15ft is recommended at the end of all dives. A safety stop
for 3 minutes at 15ft is required any time you come within 3 pressure
groups of a no decompression limit, and for any dive to a depth of
100ft or deeper.
