Description: Christopher Ward C70 D-Type Limited EditionIntroduction Following the success of 2009’s original C70 Grand Prix series of eight watches, Christopher Ward embarked on a number of stand-alone C70 Specials. They included the GB and DBR1 COSC models in 2010 and 2011, then came 2013’s BRG, 2014’s VW4 COSC and then a couple of Art Metal specials: the DBR1/2 AM100 from 2013 and the 3527 GT from 2014. The C70 D-Type is the 15th of 21 (or 22 in you include the 2016 F1 Racing magazine special, of which there are 20!) motorsport C70s Christopher Ward produced - the last one being the BRG COSC from 2017. The C70 D-Type takes inspiration from the Ecurie Ecosse D-Type Jaguars which won the 1956 and 1957 Le Mans 24-hour races - the red segment on the bottom dial echoing that of the D-Type’s rev counter, among other influences. It was launched in August 2014 and the 500 pieces were sold out in 2015. It’s definitely one of the more desirable C70 models - probably sitting just behind the DBR1s and Art Metal specials on the collector’s scale. The watch I’m selling here was a November 2014 purchase.Warranty It comes with a Ward Hoard three month warranty.Strap Options It’s currently fitted with its original leather strap that is in excellent condition. Head only - discount of £40 Exchange for modern vintage oak leather strap - no cost change.Condition: If you’re familiar with C70s, you’ll know their exposed aluminium bezel has a reputation for getting fairly easily marked. This watch is coming up for tent years old, but I’d say the bezel and case are in remarkably good condition, with just a couple of very minor blemishes to report. The rear case back still has the protective plastic in place! It’s a full set, deluxe presentation box and papers including original owner’s manual with Certificate of Authenticity and an unused polishing cloth.Specs: Diameter: 42mm Height: 11.8mm Calibre: ETA 251.272 Water resistance: 100m Strap: 22mm
