C60 Trident 316L Limited Edition
Yellow: a colour synonymous with positivity
and energy, but one also moderately
uncommon in the world of watches.
That’s why the matte dial of the new C60 Trident
316L Limited Edition, here present in a vibrant shade
of yellow, makes it an intriguing alternative in any
watch lover’s collection. In fact, this eye-popping
Trident may just steal the show.
As the third 316L Limited Edition to be released,
certain features are to be expected. Most predominant
is its stainless steel bezel, engineered from a
316L alloy (and also the reason why just 316 of
these watches have been made). Combined with
the aforementioned yellow dial, this Trident’s place
as part of the 316L range – a series known for its
bold visual identity – is assured.
As a Trident, it also inherits much of the technical
excellence and attention to detail that has made
our dive range such a success. Both the trident-
shaped seconds hand counterbalance and deep
stamped backplate are present and correct; and if
you do ever nd yourself in a position to test its
600m water resistance, please let us know!
Proving that dive watches can excel beyond their
tool watch status, the 316L has the adaptability
to be worn anywhere: whether at the beach,
the oce, or just about any location in between,
the 316L’s blend of functionality and stylish looks
ensures it will embrace them all.

How to operate your C60 Trident 316L
For a superior water resistance your crown is
of the screw-in 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
2 for winding in power. Wind in
a clockwise direction to re-power the watch.
Your C60 Trident 316L has a maximum power
reserve of 38 hours when fully wound. Normal
wearing will allow the rotor to start re-powering
the watch over time after putting it on your wrist.
• Pull gently into position
3 . For rapid date
correction, turn in a clockwise direction.
• Pull gently into position 4 . This position is used
for handsetting and stopping of the second hand.
For precise time setting it is recommended to
pass beyond the desired minute and to set the
hand backwards.
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 3 to
avoid advancing beyond the desired date.
You must always ensure the crown is fully
tightened before any use in water.

The bezel
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 left) the time at the surface
immediately before the dive is 10.08am.
However the bezel marker is at the 12.00 hr position.
– Move the bezel marker anti-clockwise so
that it aligns with the 8 minute position.
– You can now read that the 55 minute no
decompression limit will occur at 3 minutes
past the next hour.
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.

Straps and bracelets
As you would expect, we place as much emphasis on the quality of our straps and bracelets as we do
our watches. We only use the nest metals in the construction of our bracelets, all of which are precision
engineered for durability, eciency and comfort. The following guidelines explain how easy it is to use
and adjust your Christopher Ward bracelet.
1. Press buttons to release.
2. Pull open the clasp.
3. There are five micro-adjustment positions, which
allow for a maximum extension of 8.4mm. To
extend, pull the lever to unlock and simultaneously
pull on the bracelet into the desired position.
4. To shorten, simply push the bracelet back
into the clasp.
