I recently purchased a C5 Malvern Slimline hand wind watch. The finish of the watch is excellent with touches like the Bader clasp,the decorated movement, and the shell cordovan leather strap adding to the overall feeling of attention to detail. Most impressively the watch has gained one second in the three days since I first wound it. This in a non-COSC watch. I have learned to regulate my own watches and have found that most watches can be brought within good timekeeping limits with some effort. I may be just lucky with this particular movement but I suspect this good regulation is yet another example of Christopher Ward's high quality control. I'm a very pleased customer.
