British watchmaker, Christopher Ward has a new flagship model in the form of The Twelve X. We’re big fans of The Twelve here at T3, so naturally we’re pretty excited about the new model – and with a titanium case and skeleton dial, it doesn’t disappoint.
Equally new is the X’s skeletal design, which gives a detailed view of the movement within, plus there’s a sapphire exhibition case back, too.

The movement uses a twin-barrel design and has a power reserve of 120 hours – enough for the watch to keep accurate time when not worn for up to five days when fully-wound. This is also the first member of the Twelve family to have a case made from two types of titanium. The bulk of the 41mm case is made of type two titanium, while denser, higher-grade type five titanium (as found on the company’sC1 Bel Canto) is used for the bezel and case back.

That said, the company is keen to say how it strives to offer better value for money than some better-known rivals.

Mike France, co-founder and CEO of Christopher Ward, said how The Twelve X “demonstrates the core value principle of CW: that a piece should never be sold for more than three times the cost of its manufacture. In the £1,000 price range, we offer the design, finishing, materials and general quality of a watch typically seen at two or three times the price. But in this £3,000-4,000 ballpark, the contrast is even more stark.”
