Christopher Ward Expands the C63 Sealander with a Sellita SW510 Chronograph in Five Dials

Christopher Ward describes the C63 Sealander Chronograph as "the brand's first mechanical chrono in years." Six of them, by the press's count: the last one arrived in 2020. All five dials cost $2,625 on rubber or $2,765 on the Bader bracelet.

The Sealander has been Christopher Ward’s everyday-sport workhorse for years, and it now carries a mechanical chronograph. Christopher Ward’s product page lists the C63 Sealander Chronograph in five dial colours: Black, White, Pistachio, Sky Blue and Pink. Five dials at once suggest a full collection, not a cautious debut.

The movement is named outright, which is more than some brands manage. It is the Sellita SW510 automatic chronograph, 27 jewels, running at 28,800vph, in a three-subdial 3-6-9 layout under a sandblasted ceramic bezel with a tachymeter scale. Water resistance is 100m.

The product page gives conflicting power-reserve figures: the descriptive copy cites “at least 56 hours (more typically 62),” while the technical table lists a flat 62 hours. Read the lower number if you want the conservative figure.

The selling point is the height. At 13.9mm the case is described as “our slimmest yet” and 1.1mm thinner than the brand’s previous chronographs. The 41mm steel case measures 48mm lug to lug, a wearable footprint for a tricompax.

Pricing is the same across all five dials: $2,625 (£1,895) on one of the four integrated rubber straps, $2,765 (£1,995) on the iLink Bader bracelet, per Time+Tide and Oracle of Time. The watch launched on September 17, 2026. Black and White dials shipped immediately, per Gear Patrol, while Pistachio, Sky Blue and Pink are on pre-order for mid-October 2026 delivery. Gear Patrol also dates the brand’s last mechanical chronograph to 2020, which makes this the first in six years.
