C65 Divetimer

The Christopher Ward C65 Divetimer puts a fresh spin on the brand’s popular retro-inspired C65 lineup, adding a true dive-ready GMT complication that’s rare at this price point. Developed in the UK and limited in production, the Divetimer stands out for blending classic 1970s skin diver aesthetics with modern tool watch functionality—making it a talking piece among microbrand collectors and anyone searching for a versatile, travel-ready diver.

This 41mm model features a stainless steel case with a svelte profile and 150m water resistance, equipped with a Swiss automatic GMT movement (Sellita SW330-2), allowing for independent setting of the local hour hand—ideal for frequent travelers. The Divetimer’s signature is its fully graduated sapphire bezel, which enables both dive timing and a second time zone at a glance, setting it apart from standard C65 divers and giving it real-world practicality.

Reference numbers are typically marked as C65-41AGM1-S0KW0 for the steel bracelet version and C65-41AGM1-S0BB0 for the hybrid rubber strap. Pricing tends to vary based on strap choice, condition, and completeness of the original box and papers, as well as the model’s limited production run. The Divetimer’s unique bezel and GMT complication drive collector interest, and there are currently no widespread issues with aftermarket parts or counterfeiting on this reference—making it a straightforward, value-driven buy for those seeking something outside the mainstream dive watch crowd.
