Quick TakeThe Christopher Ward C1 Bel Canto is a unique and captivating timepiece that combines traditional watchmaking with innovative technology. The watch's exquisite grade 5 titanium case houses a complex chiming mechanism that chimes every hour, transforming timekeeping into an auditory experience. The deep purple viola dial and the floating subdial add a touch of elegance and sophistication to the watch's design, making it a true conversation starter. While the chiming complication might not be for everyone, for those seeking a watch that is both visually and audibly stunning, the C1 Bel Canto is a compelling proposition.

DescriptionThe Christopher Ward C1 Bel Canto is a mechanical wristwatch with a self-winding movement and a chiming complication. The watch is housed in a 41mm grade 5 titanium case, which is both lightweight and durable. The case has a brushed and polished finish and is water-resistant to 30 meters. The dial of the watch is a deep purple color, and it features a subdial at the center for displaying the hours and minutes. The hands and hour markers are made from polished steel and are coated with Super-LumiNova C1 X1 BL for low-light visibility.

The most notable feature of the C1 Bel Canto is its chiming mechanism. The watch is powered by the Christopher Ward Calibre FS01 movement, which is a modified version of the Sellita SW200-1 movement. The FS01 movement incorporates a chiming module that features a hammer and gong. Every hour, the hammer strikes the gong, producing a clear and distinct chime. The chiming mechanism can be disabled using a pusher at the 4 o'clock position on the case.

The C1 Bel Canto is equipped with a grade 2 titanium bracelet with a micro-adjustable ratchet clasp. The bracelet is brushed and polished to match the finish of the case. The watch also comes with a luxurious presentation case and owner's handbook.
