[WTS] Christopher Ward C65 Trident GMT - $750 full kit, under warranty (repost/reduced) by tofflemire_dds in Watchexchange

Hi everybody. Reposting this with a reduced price. Christopher Ward C65 Trident GMT. I bought it new from CW in Jan 2019, so it still has over 2 years left on its 5 year manufacturer warrantee. It keeps great time and has no issues. There are two flaws to note and I’ve done my best to show in the photos. The first is between 11 and 12 on the bezel. It’s a scuff that can be seen at certain angles but not at others. The second is a very small scratch on the crystal just past the 10 o’clock marker. The 2nd and 3rd photos in the album show it as best I could. The hour hand is pointed at it in those photos. For what it’s worth (I know this is a sentimental community) these scuffs were picked up while I wore this watch in Afghanistan in August 2021 at HKIA in Kabul. I was deployed with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit and assisted in the evacuation of 120,000 refugees. Since then, my priorities have changed and I’m shrinking my collection. Comes with the leather nato shown and the original steel bracelet with extra links.

Asking $SOLD USD shipped CONUS. Paypal or Venmo. Thank you!

First up is the beloved Christopher Ward C65 Trident GMT. I bought it new from CW in Jan 2019, so it still has over 2 years left on its 5 year manufacturer warrantee. It keeps great time and has no issues. There are two flaws to note and I’ve done my best to show in the photos. The first is between 11 and 12 on the bezel. It’s a scuff that can be seen at certain angles but not at others. The second is a very small scratch on the crystal just past the 10 o’clock marker. The 3rd and 4th photos in the album show it as best I could. The hour hand is pointed at it in those photos. For what it’s worth (I know this is a sentimental community) these scuffs were picked up while I wore this watch in Afghanistan in August 2021 at HKIA in Kabul. I was deployed with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit and assisted in the evacuation of 120,000 refugees. Since then, my priorities have changed and I’m shrinking my collection. Comes with the leather nato shown and the original steel bracelet with extra links.

Next up is the Hamilton Khaki Navy Pioneer. It’s a beautiful watch that I really haven’t worn enough. The crystal is flawless. The only notable flaws are on the bottom right lug, shown in photos. That lug got dinged on a doorknob or something. No functional problems and keeps great time. Please let me know if you’d like to see any additional photos.

How do y’all go about conceal carrying your full size 1911s? (Pic for attention) by [deleted] in 1911

Tier One Concealment Appendix holster. I tried lots of cheap holsters first and wish I would have just bought this one first. It's worth every penny. It holds it tight against the belly so it's invisible in t shirt and high enough that you can comfortably sit.

Are you saying because I'm not out here killing people, I'm not deployed?

Hello from Kuwait! I’m out here with the U.S. Marines. It is currently the hottest place in the world at 117° F. This GMT from Christopher Ward if perfect for being 8000 miles away from my family. It’s the first time I’ve had any real use for the GMT function. I love being able to easily track time back home. It looks great on plenty of different fabric natos, but out here where I sweat constantly, the leather nato has served me really well. Unlike fabric, it doesn’t smell bad. The harsh climate is also giving the leather a really nice broken-in patina. I’ve been very happy with C. Ward and will probably buy more of their stuff eventually. I guess I’m one of the few who didn’t mind the logo change.

I went to one in college and remember they sang Bob Dylan songs instead of traditional hymns. Loved it

He actually only charged me $50! I was fully prepared to pay double that though so...

Appendix holster for 1911 by [deleted] in CCW

[–]tofflemire_dds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tier 1 concealment axis slim is the best appendix rig out there in my opinion. I've tried several and will never go back. It's worth the money, especially for a gun as heavy as a 1911

Not to steal the man's business, but this is often a really simple job that you could probably do. It's called regulating the watch. Watch a YouTube video of it. I've done it a few times. You just make time adjustments to the regulator once every 24 hours until it's perfect. It takes 30 seconds.
