Christopher Ward Trident Vintage
Finding a watch which is comfortable and classy can sometimes be a challenge, however, with this timepiece you get exactly that. This watch has been designed around the classics of the 1960’s and 70’s and is both stylish and sophisticated and great for everyday use (but also looks great with a suit.) Being a big fan of Christopher Ward, we cannot recommend it highly enough.
