Pros
- Maybe a Christopher Ward?
- Christopher Ward? Also Longines for sure.
- I love how that Christopher Ward stands out, you don’t see many yellow dials around !
Cons
- In just one week I have gone from viewing CW as a brand I would never buy because of their cringe name, to a brand I would never buy because apparently their customer service, quality, and finishing, has actually been buns this whole time.
- One I don't like for some reason is Christopher Ward. So bland and generic.

I can appreciate what Christopher Ward is doing in terms of innovation, but there are way too many QC and customer service horror stories similar to mine. They are trying to become a relevant luxury watch brand without providing the basics such as quality control and customer service that can back up luxury status.
Parent context: Exactly my first thought. Similar reasoning to why I wasn’t previously interested in Christopher Ward watches either, because I don’t want some random dude’s full name printed out across my nice watch face. I think they caught onto that though. Reply: Exactly my first thought.

I’ve seen a few really negative posts now about their quality and customer service, so anyone ‘doing their research’ should find plenty of reasons to avoid them.
Christopher Ward is really just a marketing company that sells watches. They astroturfed this sub and probably reached critical mass that they have cut down on the hype and marketing.
I have never been high on them but after the last few months on this sub I could never recommend this brand to anyone.
The more I hear about Christopher Ward the less likely I am to ever order one of their watches.
Christoper Ward is almost as bad.
