Steal Alert: Christopher Ward’s Winter Sale

Christopher Ward: New and “Nearly New” Sale Event

Christopher Ward is known for maximizing the bang-for-the-buck thing in the watchmaking world. Swiss made. Incredible craftsmanship. Terrific designs. And they’re still thousands upon thousands less than a Rolex or Omega.

And they just launched one of their semi-annual sale events.

• 42mm Black C60 Trident Pro 300 – Nearly New – $876 ($1095) also shown very top of post
• 40mm White C6 Trident Pro 300 – Nearly New – $876 ($1095)
• 38mm C65 Dune GMT – Nearly New – $1,092 ($1,365)
• 39mm C63 Sealander Automatic 39mm – Nearly New – $796 ($995)
• 41mm C65 Aquitaine GMT – Nearly New – $1,128 ($1,410)

Know that watches in these Christopher Ward sales usually sell extraordinarily fast.

Most if not all of the on-sale watches are “nearly new” (meaning they’re open box models/returns). Yet BOTH “nearly new” and “new-new” watches come with the same 60 day returns worldwide + 60 month movement guarantee.

YET. And this is important…

These ship from the U.K. Which means if your order is over $800 you’ll get hit with import duties/fees at checkout. But as of October 2024, if you return the watch by taking advantage of their 60 day returns window, those import duties/fees are now refundable:

“As of October 21, 2024, we will refund any duty charges along with your order refund. If the duty charges were applied at checkout, this process will occur automatically. However, if you received a charge directly from DHL, please share your receipt with us, and we will process the refund for you. Please note that all refunds typically take 3–5 working days to appear in your account.”

So at least there’s that. Which is nice of them. That didn’t used to be the case.

Got all that? Lot of info there.

That’s all. Carry on.
