C65 Dune Bronze COSC
Owner’s Handbook

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 Dune Collection
Named after Aquitaine’s Dune du Pilat, Europe’s tallest sand dune,
the three-watch Dune Collection pairs elegant design with the rugged
do-anything ability of a eld watch.
The C65 Dune Automatic, GMT and Bronze COSC models have all been
designed to accompany your most challenging expeditions in comfort
and style – whether you’re crossing a desert or just navigating the
morning commute.
The 38mm Light-catcher™ case is designed to t almost any wrist, while
the exquisite nish of the dial, indexes and hands is typically Christopher
Ward. The Dune is also the rst CW watch to host an applied twin-ags
logo, while the domed crystal adds a vintage look that recalls sports
watches of the 1960s and ’70s.
Christopher Ward CEO Mike France describes the Dune as a watch for
weekends that’s happy to dress up for the week.
“Calling Dune a eld watch explains it,” he says. “But it doesn’t do it
justice. Yes, it’s all-purpose and fuss-free, but it’s sophisticated, too.”
Let the adventures begin!

C65 Dune Bronze COSC
The middle of the 20th century is rightly considered the golden era for
sports, eld and dive watches.
A time when newly-untamed design came face to face with
improvements in watchmaking and engineering.
And a period which is celebrated in your beautiful C65 Dune Bronze
COSC.
Sitting halfway between a tool watch and luxury timepiece (just
check the nishing on that gorgeous sunray dial), it’s as at home on
the morning commute as it is out in the wilds at the weekend. And
because it’s a chronometer, it’ll deliver super-accurate timekeeping
wherever you wear it.
Famously, bronze changes over time, developing a one-o protective
patina through its exposure to the air. So the longer you own the
C65 Dune Bronze COSC, the more it’ll become uniquely yours.

How to operate your C65 Dune Bronze COSC
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 C65 Dune Bronze COSC has a maximum power
reserve of 38 hours when fully wound.
• 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.
