After spending a few weeks with the Christopher Ward C9 Harrison Jumping Hour watch, I can safely say that I am smitten. Yes, smitten. As a watch lover I can’t help but be seduced by those epic watches that cost from $6 – 600 thousand dollars, but as a normal dude, I never expect to own one. The watches I am talking about are those with really unique little mechanical gizmos under their skin that are doing fascinating little tasks, whether it is tracking the moon or spinning on multiple axis, they are part of what makes watches so fascinating.

So, when a watch like the C9 comes along, containing within it one of those unique mechanical complications, but is at an achievable price point, I get really excited. Sure, $1,585 is not cheap, but one could imagine how through saving and perhaps selling off watches one no longer wears, $1,585 is not that out of reach. Having been able to actually spend time with this watch, the answer is yes, the unique complication, as well as the overall high build and detail quality puts the C9 in a league of its own.
