Time on your side

quality standards can hope to deliver.
You have made an investment, a good one, and the aim of this
manual is to help you make the most of that investment in what
we hope will be a lifetime of ownership.

C60 Trident Pro 300
Congratulations on the purchase of your C60 Trident Pro 300.
A watch that’s not only the product of our teams in the UK and
Switzerland but of the passion of those who know Christopher Ward
best: our customers.
The Trident range of dive watches is sacrosanct to Christopher
Ward. So when we wanted to expand the series, we asked members
of the (always independent) Christopher Ward Forum for their
thoughts.
That consultation led to the creation of your C60 Trident Pro 300.
A diving instrument that takes the Trident template and remixes
it into a watch that’s so wearable you’ll never want to take it o.
A timepiece that’s 1.65mm slimmer than the C60 Trident Pro 600
(depending on case size) but still delivers 300m of water resistance.
Everything about the C60 Trident Pro 300 is made for daily wear:
smart enough for the oce, rugged enough to accompany you
on the deepest of dives. Wherever you want to go, it’ll be with you
every step of the way.
But don’t take our word for it. The only way to truly connect with
your beautiful new watch is to strap it to your wrist and take it out
into the world.

How to operate your C60 Trident Pro 300
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 Trident Pro 300 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
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 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.

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 10.08am.
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.
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.

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 materials in our straps,
with quick-release pins also included for
your convenience.
The following guidelines explain how easy
it is to use, adjust and replace your
Christopher Ward strap or bracelet.
1. Locate the quick-release pin (or pins)
on your strap (A) or bracelet (B).
Pull the pin(s) inwards to detach.
2. To reattach your strap (C) or bracelet (D),
pull the pin(s) inwards, and align the
spring bars so that they click securely into
the lug holes on each side.

Water resistance
Although your watch has been through vigorous static pressure
testing, it is worth remembering that there are many variables
that can aect the water resistance of your watch. For instance,
arm movements during swimming and the sudden impact of diving
and water sports will drastically increase the pressure the watch
is under.
Wearing your watch in the bath, shower, or sauna can also have
an eect as a rapid increase in temperature can cause seals to
expand and in extreme cases, malfunction or create condensation.
For these reasons, the water resistance rating of your watch
(as shown) should only ever be considered a guideline and we
strongly recommend they are always adhered to.
