The Twelve (Ti)
Congratulations on your new The Twelve (Ti), a game-changing watch for
Christopher Ward and, we sincerely hope, for you too.
This is Christopher Ward’s most polished, considered and – yes – luxurious
mainstream piece to date, the perfect watch for a period in history where
design, detailing and style have started to hog the limelight. From the
once-unexpected colours now common on dials to the playful use of
unusual shapes, nishes and textures, aesthetics are rmly in the driving
seat, their impact huge.
But that doesn’t mean this is a watch that’s just about looks. Far from
it, for The Twelve (Ti) is a top-notch timepiece in every technical and
horological sense too, awash with innovations big and small.
It boasts a slim and ultra-reliable SW300-1 COSC movement,
allowing for an especially wrist-hugging case. And that it’s all rendered
in titanium is more remarkable yet, reducing weight signicantly for
a more comfortable wearing experience.
We hope you enjoy your adventures together, and that – at some point
far ahead, the light falling just so – you’ll catch a ash from one of
your Ti’s many polished surfaces, and be reminded again of just how
remarkable it is.

The Twelve (Ti) has a maximum power reserve of up to 56 hours
when fully wound. To re-power the watch after a period of non-use,
simply wind the crown for approximately 20 revolutions. Normal
wearing will very quickly allow the rotor to start re-powering the
watch over time after putting it on your wrist.

How to operate The Twelve (Ti)
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. The Twelve (Ti) has a maximum power reserve of up
to 56 hours when fully wound.
• Pull gently into position 3. For rapid date correction, turn in an
anti-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.
