A Week on the Wrist with the Christopher Ward Desk Diver – the coolest watch money can't buy
Dec 22, 2024

Renowned artist seconde/seconde puts a tongue in cheek spin on the dive watch

The world of watches is undeniably linked to trends. Sitting so close to the world of fashion, we often see the two collide, with different tastes moulding the popularity of different styles.
Right now, there's nothing hotter than a dive watch. And no, that's not because we've all simultaneously unlocked our inner Jacques Cousteau. That popularity is intrinsically linked to a change in office culture, which has given rise to dive watches as an acceptable part of office attire.
It's known as the desk diver trend, which just so happens to also be the name of the watch I've been testing from Christopher Ward. Designed in conjunction with renowned artist, seconde/seconde, this is the ultimate watch for the modern office-goer.

Christopher Ward Desk Diver: key specs

The model itself is based on the Christopher Ward C65 Aquitaine, and keeps a lot of similar specs. Powered by the Sellita SW200-1 movement, users can expect a 4Hz beat rate and a 38 hour power reserve, with accuracy rated at +/-20 seconds per day.
That's housed inside a 41mm stainless steel case, which sits 12.45mm tall and features a lug-to-lug width of 46.68mm. It's slightly plumper than other divers from the brand, but nothing to worry about even on dinkier wrists.
