After unveiling the C1 Bel Canto collection, Christopher Ward watches spread like wildfire in 2022. Thanks to their sophisticated design and allure, such timepieces generated a lot of hype.

Well, the brand has just added new watches to the collection, which come with a sonnerie au passage and a laser-ingrained pattern. This unique touch makes the watch even more appealing.

The watch produces a unique sound after every hour to notify you.

Featuring a 41 mm casing, this new timepiece by Christopher Ward is the true embodiment of a high-quality watch due to its unique metallic luster. The high-quality materials and looks are complemented by a guillochè pattern that brings out that modern, French-like allure.

Built to offer various styling options, the new C1 Bel Canto piece has a green, blue, silver, and gold dial — so you can choose the color you love best.

And thanks to the guillochè pattern, light bounces off the dial in a stylish manner, accentuating different shades featured on the dial. It is also fitted with Roman numerals to create a balance between modern and retro aesthetics.

While the finish gives this timepiece a sophisticated look, the open-work mechanism is the cherry on top of the cake. Everything, from the open-work bridges to the wheels, is showcased in an artistic manner to pay tribute to the brilliant engineering.

According to the brand, this new mechanical chiming watch will be delivered to enthusiasts after two months.

The strap option goes for $4,225, while the bracelet version is priced at $4,540.

For the love of Italy: Hockerty releases 14 looks with inspiration from 14 Italian locations
Blazer, Clothing, Coat

I am a traveler at heart. Every day, I wake up and have coffee, and stare out the window at a world still full of wonders and mysteries I have yet to uncover. Since the day I joined the Army, my heart has always been on the road, in the sky, or aboard a ship. The idea that there is a part of the world I have yet to see is both exhilarating and frustrating. Chasing those undiscovered corners of the world started as a passion and an experiment and became a way of life and an addiction. I say all that to say, I find inspiration on the road. I see the world around me as a canvas for my imagination.

I am also a menswear fanatic. From selling suits to writing about them, a good suit is always in my bag with me. So when a brand I love, Hockerty being a favorite, finds inspiration in a place, I pay attention. I wrote about their summer edit a while ago, with their colors at the forefront of my attention. But I missed something. I missed that all fourteen looks they debuted were inspired by different places in Italy.
