A Watch That Stuns at First Look

Christopher Ward has done it again. The new C12 Loco looks like a $50,000 watch but is priced under $5,000. It features a dial-side escapement, integrated bracelet, and modern sports design something rarely seen at this price.

Meet the InHouse CW-003 Movement

Inside the C12 Loco ticks the all-new CW-003, a hand-wound movement with a visible escapement and a whopping six-day power reserve. It's mechanical beauty for serious collectors, minus the five-figure cost.

A Peek into the Movement

Flip the C12 Loco and you’ll see dual barrels, sleek industrial finishing, and mirror polished bridges, all visible through a sapphire crystal caseback. The design is raw, futuristic, and entirely original.

Colours That Pop-or Keep It Classic

From bright blue, orange, and white to classic black, the C12 Loco caters to bold and subtle tastes alike. Its integrated bracelet and domed sapphire crystal give it a high-end luxury sports watch feel.

No Tourbillon? No Problem

The C12 Loco might not have a tourbillon, however, the visible escapement gives the same vibe at a fraction of the price. It’s rare to see such technical flair on a watch in this segment.
