The Christopher Ward C1 Moonglow is widely praised for its comfort, wearability at 40.5mm, and impressive lume, with owners calling it gorgeous, unique, and the coolest moonphase for the money. The moonphase complication is noted as constantly rotating, and one owner reports it accurate to within 1 day every 128 years. Some criticism exists regarding the dual moon phase display, where the inactive moon is visible through a translucent cover, and the lume on the date ring is less bright and fades faster than other luminous elements. One owner specifically loves the opaque blue moonphase dial of the LE Celestial Blue variant. Overall, owners and reviewers find the Christopher Ward C1 Moonglow a visually engaging and comfortable watch, particularly for its price point, with its unique dial design and strong lume being significant draws.
