| “I just received my C7 Rapide and I am happy to report that this watch has clearly exceeded my expectations. When I started my search I had a great deal of interested in the Tag Carrera legend. While Tag had a great reputation for quality I just couldn't justify spending the money. After a few days of searching the internet I stumbled across Christopher Ward watches. To my surprise CW had the C7 which is very similar to the Tag Carrera chronograph at a tenth of the price. In addition, the review consensus indicated that the quality and service the company provides in second to none. For these reasons I chose to purchase a C7 and decide for myself. What I found clearly demonstrates that CW strives to produce a quality timepiece and prove to the other manufacturers that you don't have to spend a fortune to tell time. I look forward to future innovations of this line and encourage anyone viewing your timepieces to give it a go. You wont be disappointed...” Gary Toolan, USA (7 March 2010) |
| “Just want to thank you for producing such a great range of watches. I'd been looking at your site for some time and finally took the plunge just before Christmas when I saw a C7 in the nearly new section. Delivery was quick and in time for my companies conference in early January. Waiting at the airport to leave a couple of my buddies spotted it straight away commenting that it must have "Set you back a few bob". The watch speaks for itself; understated and typically English in its design, subtle and classy. You are to be commended.” Steve Twin, UK (17 February 2010) |
| “I just want to say that today I took ownership of a C7 Rapide. It is absolutely beautiful. From the presentation box that it came in (though I did not order the deluxe box, that must be great) to the way it feels. Also, the customer service that I received was impeccable; I ordered it on a Thursday evening, opting for next day delivery. I was contacted on the Friday by a female member of staff who was concerned that as I asked for it to be delivered to my work address (closed on weekends) it would get lost in the abyss of the postal system. She said that she would feel a lot more conformable posting it on the Monday to ensure it got there the next day. When I enquired on Monday I received an e-mail an hour later confirming it had been sent. It came at 9am today. It is only 1-30pm and I have already had several comments about it. I see Christopher Ward to be like the “Shawshank Redemption” and “The Wire” of the Watch industry, a secret that only a selected few know about, and pass it on until it becomes a global success. Anyway, it is a stunning time piece and I am proud to own it.” Ian Hewison ,UK (16 February 2010) |
| “Yes, all sorted, thanks very much. Wera couldn't have been more helpful, and the C7 is great! In fact, I've just ordered a C80, which, I gather was despatched earlier today. The CWL bug has obviously bitten - it's just a case of explaining to the Missus why I've bought two new watches in a week ... oh well, she'll get over it (eventually). Thanks again, and keep it up. As I said, I love the idea of what you're doing.” Geoff Whitehorn, UK (9 February 2010) |

"I had to drop you a quick email.... Firstly, I love watches... Secondly, I decided to treat myself to a new watch... Tried on the usual brands... Omega, Oris etc... Then, I put in a Google search for the “best value luxury watch”... I stumbled across man reviews and your watches! Steve May, UK (30 January 2010) |

"Having spoken to you about three weeks ago regarding your watches, I am pleased to say I subsequently purchased a C7 of which I am highly delighted. A friend of mine has a Tag Heur Carerra and we were comparing the two watches and to our astonishment we found the C7 to be of a superior build quality and at a fraction of the price." Julien Lerpiniere, UK (7 December 09) |

"I want to thank you for your help, and for expediting the watch shipment. The watch arrived right on time. I presented it to my husband on his birthday -- he loves it! Really loves it. It was stiff competition with the hand-drawn cards from his nieces and nephews, but I think the watch wins 'best present' this year." Joan Fitzgerald, USA (30 November 09) |

"I received this watch today (the subject of the email). I would have had it two days ago were it not for me missing the delivery. It was a Christmas present for myself but bought for me by my family. I can't wear it yet but I've had a (very) quick peek to 'check it was the one'. I've wanted a 'nice' watch for a while but could never justify spending a few thousand pounds on one. I like them, but not that much. John, UK (27 November 09) |

""I am delighted with my beautiful new C7 Chrono Rapide. I had it on my wish list for my 38th birthday and my wife indulged my whim. I already owned 3 classic watches (my father's old Datejust Rolex, a Rolex Explorer 2 and an Omega Speed Master)so why did I need another. Well I didn't. But I wanted one after seeing a CW on a friend's wrist. I am so impressed by the design and the attention to detail on the watch. I wore it to work for the first time yesterday and loads of people felt the need to comment on the watch having noticed it. Having looked at the other designs there are easily 4 more models I intend to acquire over time... I will be doing my bit to spread the word about CW."" Stan Shires, UK (27 November 09) |

"Two beautiful watches (the Rapide C7SKK and the Lido C2SKS) arrived on Tuesday! Delighted with them. Wearing the chronograph one today. Many thanks." Tighearnan J Mooney, Gloucestershire (23 January 09) |

"I received my watch last week on Friday - been really too busy to sit down and reply. but just wanted to say thank you for all your help, it was much appreciated!! It took me a whilst to get use to the watch as i wasnt sure if i wanted to keep it or exchange for a different colour face, but yeah it's grown on me and i quite like it nowadays. Anyways here's just to say thanks!" Chris Chan, Northampton, UK (13 January 09) |

"Just taken delivery of my C7, stunning doesn't even come close to describing this watch. The quality to price ratio just goes to prove just how unnecessarily over priced the other, in popular parlance, 'high end' brands are. My only dilemma now is which one next? Decisions decisions..." Gareth Roberts, Conwy, UK (05 January 09) |

"Today my order has been completed and I have to say that as a newcomer to Chris Ward watches I am over the moon with my LE C7 Rapide! This watch is the first of what I hope to be my Christopher Ward watch collection. I have no hesitation in recommending your watches to friends and family and any stranger who will listen Michael Dodds, North Yorks, UK (3 December 08) |

"Just wanted to let you guys know that my C7 arrived safe and sound. Absolutely stunning is all I can say. Many thanks, I'm looking forward to my next CW." Antony Tannenbaum, Caulfield, Australia (3 December 08) |
