Christopher Ward C1 Bel Canto - Like a MB&F?

Bumping this thread with some more pics! The dial is just killer and the bird mechanism as the chiming hammer is just genius - reminds me of a Jaquet Droz.

Well done again CW - insane value!

Finally got my rose dial yesterday. Deposit originally placed in April 2023. 15 months in total, and I had forgotten about it on and off during that time. It's hard to capture the hue of the platine. It sort of looks like a cold champagne in the pic, but it's more of a warm rosy-salmon.

What I don't care for are the OE quick-release pins on the bracelet. I'm sure they're more robust than run-of-the-mill quick-release spring bars, but they are also much less user friendly. I have a few aftermarket straps to wear with it, but the OE quick-release is annoying.

Looks great! The dial color is casual cool
Just remove the OE springbars for 1.8mm ones, that's what i did.

It was a 14 month wait, but a joy to have this on the wrist...

Enjoy yours! Such a fun watch. I’ve noticed on my purple that one side (the 12) seems less secure to the case. You can wiggles the end link a bit and see some space. The 6o side is more secure
