After unveiling the C1 Bel Canto collection, Christopher Ward watches spread like wildfire in 2022. Thanks to their sophisticated design and allure, such timepieces generated a lot of hype.

Well, the brand has just added new watches to the collection, which come with a sonnerie au passage and a laser-ingrained pattern. This unique touch makes the watch even more appealing.

Featuring a 41 mm casing, this new timepiece by Christopher Ward is the true embodiment of a high-quality watch due to its unique metallic luster. The high-quality materials and looks are complemented by a guillochè pattern that brings out that modern, French-like allure.

Built to offer various styling options, the new C1 Bel Canto piece has a green, blue, silver, and gold dial — so you can choose the color you love best.

And thanks to the guillochè pattern, light bounces off the dial in a stylish manner, accentuating different shades featured on the dial. It is also fitted with Roman numerals to create a balance between modern and retro aesthetics.

While the finish gives this timepiece a sophisticated look, the open-work mechanism is the cherry on top of the cake. Everything, from the open-work bridges to the wheels, is showcased in an artistic manner to pay tribute to the brilliant engineering.

According to the brand, this new mechanical chiming watch will be delivered to enthusiasts after two months.

The strap option goes for $4,225, while the bracelet version is priced at $4,540.

Modern society is shrugging off many of its old-world values, and the ways we approach romantic relationships, engagements, weddings, and families are not immune to the trends. These days, giving an engagement ring can seem almost as up to date as busting your love interest over the head with a club and dragging them into a cave by the hair (with apologies to any who may find that trope culturally insensitive). Given contemporary values of equality (real or hoped for) in today’s marriage dynamic — not to mention the wider acceptance of same-sex nuptials — a fresher and more visible decoration of your intentions may be the engagement watch! The gender-neutral accessory is not only practical, but it can also be a great long-term investment, and appropriately speaks to the hopes for a lifetime together.
