From small beginnings just a few short years ago  

(our first workshop was actually a refurbished  

chicken shed!), Christopher Ward has won a worldwide 

following for his eponymous watch brand and can 

justifiably claim to manufacture the most affordable 

luxury watches in the world. 

For many, the philosophy behind the brand, of trying 

to put luxury watches within the reach of everyone, 

is as attractive as the watches themselves, as 

is the very open approach of the business which 

means that Chris and the team spend a lot of time 

communicating personally with our customers –  

many of whom have become friends.

As the owner of a Christopher Ward watch,  

if ever you need to get hold of us we are at  

your service. We have listed some useful  

contact details on the back cover.

There is also always something new going on at  

our website at 

www.christopherward.co.uk

  

and, if you haven’t already discovered the 

independent forum dedicated to our brand at  

www.christopherwardforum.com

 we would 

recommend a visit. Informative and fun,  

it’s a great place to hear the unexpurgated  

view of Christopher Ward.
