Christopher Ward make very good watches. I have not collected watches long, but I have been interested in them ever since my Grandfather gave me a pocket watch to distract me from pestering him while he engaged in his own hobby of repairing clocks. Since starting to collect watches I have owned several CW Trident models, both auto and quartz variants. With my own background in design and engineering I appreciate their quality and I find then to be sturdy, use the best materials and be well out together. They keep good time and the choice of movements inside them mean that servicing is easy when the time comes. Their three best qualities are their variety in the range (you can pick a model for any occasion), their 38mm size (perfect for my smaller wrist) and, most importantly for me, their 60/60 warranty and customer service. I really appreciate the fact that I can call them up, speak to someone directly and quickly resolve any questions I have. In this aspect alone they can teach many companies a thing or two! I now own other watches from Rolex, Breitling and Omega, as well as my CW models, and am as proud to wear my Trident as any other model in my collection. James
