Christopher Ward C1 Jump Hour Mk V

The Christopher Ward C1 Jump Hour Mk V is praised for its proprietary JJ01 jumping hour complication and multi-level dial design featuring a floating sapphire dial with a lumed jump hour aperture.

The dial's radially grooved center and sapphire minute track with a lumed underside enhance legibility, and the Super-LumiNova execution is described as an eye-catcher. The watch is powered by the JJ01 module atop a Sellita SW200-1 movement, offering a 38-hour power reserve. Accuracy is rated at approximately ±20 seconds per day. Some owners express concerns about the watch's 14mm thickness. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the unique dial execution and complication at its price point.
