C9 AM GT
It’s not often we begin this section by focusing on a dierent watch,
but in the case of the C9 AM GT, it’s almost impossible not to
document its creation without mention of the C9 DB4 ‘1 VEV’.
Limited to just 19 pieces – one for each of the iconic Aston Martin
Zagato cars produced – each model contained a piece of metal
from registration number ‘1 VEV’, a model that raced at Goodwood
in 1961. Such historical provenance immediately elevated the watch
into a higher price bracket, leaving anyone who wanted to see its
dashboard-inuenced dial available in a more aordable piece with a
bit of a conundrum – until now.
While the C9 AM GT doesn’t have a piece of ‘1 VEV’ in its backplate,
the two still share a lot in common. From the ETA Valgranges
A07.161 movement and a power reserve indicator that authentically
captures the look of the car’s rev counter, through to its
speedometer-inuenced numerals and inclined outer dial ring,
the C9 AM GT stands as an exceptional watch in its own right.
Factor in that just 135 of these watches exist – in fact, this marks
the nal time you’ll see our C9 range’s case design available
anywhere – and the C9 AM GT will add an exclusive, vintage cool
to any watch lover’s collection.

The crown should sit ush to the case (position 1) in order to
maintain water resistance.
• To re-power the watch simply wind the crown in a clockwise direction
until the power reserve indicator shows a charge of between 50%
and 55%. Your C9 AM GT has a maximum power reserve of 46 hours
when fully wound. Normal wearing will allow the rotor to start re-
powering the watch over time after putting on your wrist.
• To set the time pull out the crown gently into position 2. This position
is used for handsetting and stopping of the second hand. For precise
time setting it is recommended to pass beyond the desired minute
and to set the hand backwards.

Straps and bracelets
As you would expect, we place as much
emphasis on the quality of our straps and
bracelets as we do our watches. We only
use the nest materials in our straps,
with quick-release pins also included for
your convenience.
The following guidelines explain how easy
it is to use, adjust and replace your
Christopher Ward strap or bracelet.
How to operate your C9 AM GT
1. Locate the quick-release pin on your strap.
Pull the pin to the side to detach your strap.
2. To reattach your strap, align the pins to the
lug holes and click the strap into position.
Repeat for the other side.

Water resistance
Although your watch has been through vigorous static pressure
testing, it is worth remembering that there are many variables that
can aect the water resistance of your watch. For instance, arm
movements during swimming and the sudden impact of diving
and water sports will drastically increase the pressure the watch
is under.
Wearing your watch in the bath, shower, or sauna can also have
an eect as a rapid increase in temperature can cause seals to
expand and in extreme cases, malfunction or create condensation.
For these reasons, the water resistance rating of your watch
(as shown) should only ever be considered a guideline and we
strongly recommend they are always adhered to.
