Time on your side
Your Christopher Ward watch has been designed in Britain
and engineered in Switzerland by highly talented craftspeople.
This ensures not only accurate and precise timekeeping, but also
brings a real pride of ownership that only watches of the highest
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.

The Sealander collection
There are few things more human than the urge to explore.
To travel, search or discover – just for the joy of it.
And when you do explore, you need a timepiece that’s not only
accurate but rugged enough to handle whatever comes its way.
This is the thinking behind the Sealander collection. And the reason
your new watch looks and functions the way it does.
Whether you’ve gone for the C63 Sealander Automatic (the ‘purest’
Sealander), the internationally-minded C63 Sealander GMT or the
titanium C63 Sealander Elite, you’re wearing a watch that’s inspired
by the sports-explorer watches of the mid 20th century.
But Sealanders are also made for the modern world – a world where
leisure and work mix, and where adventure and business are often
the same. Watches that are tough but nished to such a high
specication, they’re as at home in a high-end restaurant as they
are up the side of a mountain.

Mike France, our CEO, was one of the main driving forces behind
the collection. He knew Christopher Ward needed to produce
a range of sports watches that sit somewhere between the
practicality of a C60 Trident Pro 600 and the retro-sophistication
of a C65 Aquitaine.
“These pieces are as tough as a dive watch, but underplay it
with more modest, bezel-free lines,” he says. “They can be worn
anywhere, and as work and home life continue to blend, that’s
become more relevant than ever.”
Now you know the thinking behind your new watch, you have but
one task: to strap it on and see where your explorations take you.

C63 Sealander Automatic
Congratulations on the purchase of your 36mm C63 Sealander
Automatic.
A pure expression of Sealander’s go-anywhere, do-everything spirit,
it’s ideal for watch-lovers who hark back to the smaller cases of old,
and who want something that’s classic and contemporary.
Of course, as a Sealander, it’s also a precision-engineered timing
device.
The Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement provides accurate
timekeeping in every environment – the watch is waterproof to
150m – while the polished lacquer dial enables legibility in daylight
and at night. And if you like to witness horology up close, the
exhibition caseback gives you the perfect view of the movement’s
decorated rotor.
As tastes change and we return to more sensibly sized cases, your
new watch is both an on-trend accessory – and a tried-and-tested
classic timepiece. Something you’ll nd out the moment you try it on.

How to operate your C63 Sealander Automatic
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 C63 Sealander Automatic 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.

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.
