Travel, exploration and adventure have long inspired watchmakers.
From rock climbers to channel swimmers, deep-sea divers to professional cavers – adventurers have always demanded tool watches to help them overcome the most testing conditions.
The C63 Sealander GMT builds on this tradition. It looks back to the classic GMT-explorer’s watches of the 1970s: then updates it for today – at a price that’s almost too good to be true.
Unlike most of our other GMT watches, the C63 Sealander GMT has a fixed outer bezel. This is because the early GMT-explorers were designed for light-starved cavers who needed to know whether it was AM or PM. A moveable dial could prevent accurate calculation.
Of course, you can use your C63 Sealander’s GMT function this way or to monitor the time zone of your choice – as you would on a traditional GMT.
When it comes to the dial, the green C63 Sealander GMT requires serious consideration. Every dial has been hand-distressed for an ‘ombré’ finish – a CW specialisation – that makes each watch unique. Think of the dial like a pair of jeans: changing subtly as time passes. There’s also a date window at 6 o’ clock, which gives you more information and balances the Christopher Ward logo at 12.
The watch’s indexes and hands-set are coated with Super-LumiNova® Grade X1 BL C1 for visibility in low light. Something that offers vital information when you’re exploring the darker recesses of the planet. And because this is a watch made for land or sea, water-resistance is guaranteed to 150m.
Made from marine-grade 316L stainless steel, the 39mm Light-catcher™ case is not only sized to suit every wrist but comfortable to wear and hypnotising to look at – especially when light bounces off its brushed and polished surfaces.
Powering the watch is the Sellita SW330-2 GMT, a movement that allows you to set the fourth hand separately. As well as being robust, it has a minimum power reserve of 50 hours – easily enough for a weekend away.
Finally, if you like to change up your timepiece, swapping a bracelet for a strap (like the #tide or camel-leather one) is super-easy thanks to our pioneering quick-release system. It’s like getting a second watch for free.

Sellita SW330-2 GMT
The new Sellita SW330-2 is an alternative to the ETA 2893, and a movement that provides both superb accuracy and GMT timing.
Just 4.1mm thick, the SW330-2 has 25 jewels and beats at a rate of 28,800 per hour with a power reserve of up to 56 hours. The central GMT hand can be set independently from the hour and seconds hands.
What the press say about the
C63 Sealander GMT

A dial that’s
truly yours
The hunter green dial has been hand-distressed. Rather like a pair of jeans that fade with age, each dial is subtly different to the next.

Comfort as standard
The 39mm Light-catcher™ case has been designed to sit snugly on the wrist – making it feel more secure and easier to slide a cuff over.

Future’s orange
The large ‘GMT’ hand is coated in both pantone bright orange and Super-LumiNova® Grade X1 BL C1, aiding visibility day and night.

Rotor sport
The see-through exhibition caseback lets you see deep into the elaboré-standard Sellita SW330-2 GMT movement, including the beautifully decorated rotor.
