C60 Trident Pro COSC LE
C60 Trident Pro COSC Limited Edition
Let’s be clear about this; whatever model
you opt for, the C60 Trident Pro is no
ordinary watch.
The summer of 2017 marks the release of this special
Trident. Limited to just 100 pieces, the Pro COSC
Limited Edition features a striking monochrome
look, while our famous Trident second hand
counterbalance has been nished in red. This touch
of colour also appears with an inverted triangle inset
into the fully-tracked bezel at 12 o’clock.
As part of a collection named after the trident of
Poseidon, the wave guilloche design applied to the
COSC Limited Edition’s dial is suitably oceanic, while
its water resistance down to 600m is appropriate
for a watch inspired by the Greek god of the sea.
Inside, a chronometer-certied SW200 movement
keeps the Trident running with a level of precision
rarely seen throughout most Swiss watches – only
6% receive COSC (Contrôle Ociel Suisse des
Chronomètres) status. It’s a level of accuracy that
shouldn’t surprise when you consider the excellence
of materials and engineering involved in this watch.

How to operate your C60 Trident Pro COSC LE
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 Pro COSC has a maximum
power reserve of 38 hours when fully wound.
After a period of non-use, we recommend
manually winding the watch to ensure the rotor
weight sustains the amount of power in the
mainspring whilst worn on your wrist – this can
be done via twenty full revolutions of the crown.
• 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 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.
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 leathers for our straps. Similarly, 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
strap or bracelet.
Using the quick-release pins on
your strap
1. Locate the quick-release pin on your
strap. Pull the pin to the side to detach
your strap.
2. To reattach your strap, align the pins
to the lug holes and click the strap
into position. Repeat for the other side.

1. Press buttons to release.
2. Pull open the clasp.
3. There are five micro-adjustment positions,
which allows 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.

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.
1 ATM (10 metres)
Safe to wear your watch while
washing your hands with tap water.
3 ATM (30 metres)
Washing your car and/or
general hose pipe usage.
5 ATM (50 metres)
Water resistant to most
household shower units.
15 ATM (150 metres)
Safe to use while snorkelling
in open water.
30 ATM (300 metres)
Ideal for experienced divers and
those practising scuba-diving.
60 ATM (600 metres)
Professional divers, experiencing
prolonged exposure underwater.
100 ATM (1000 metres)
Professional deep sea diving.

From small beginnings just a few short years ago
(our rst workshop was actually a refurbished
chicken shed!), Christopher Ward has won a worldwide
following for his eponymous watch brand and can
justiably claim to manufacture the most aordable
luxury watches in the world.
For many, the philosophy behind the brand, of trying
to put luxury watches within the reach of everyone,
is as attractive as the watches themselves, as
is the very open approach of the business which
means that Chris and the team spend a lot of time
communicating personally with our customers –
many of whom have become friends.
As the owner of a Christopher Ward watch,
if ever you need to get hold of us we are at
your service. We have listed some useful
contact details on the back cover.
There is also always something new going on at
our website at www.christopherward.co.uk
and, if you haven’t already discovered the
independent forum dedicated to our brand at
www.christopherwardforum.com we would
recommend a visit. Informative and fun,
it’s a great place to hear the unexpurgated
view of Christopher Ward.
