The C60 Trident GMT 300 (40mm) uses 20mm. The C65 Trident Diver (40mm) uses 20mm. The C1 Bel Canto (40mm dress watch) uses 20mm. The C9 Midnight Planetarium uses 20mm.

What's the best cheap strap for the Christopher Ward C60?

The Christopher Ward C60 is a serious dive watch with a bold, contemporary aesthetic. FKM rubber in 22mm (for the 42mm C60) or 20mm (for the 40mm C60 300) is the most popular and practical choice — search 'FKM rubber strap 22mm quick release dive' on AliExpress for $8–$15 options. Sailcloth straps are a strong second choice: the C60's technically focused character pairs well with the sailcloth's woven texture and yacht-racing connotations. Search 'sailcloth watch strap 22mm' for $10–$18 options. The C65 vintage diver (40mm, 20mm lugs) looks exceptional on a tropic-style perforated rubber at $6–$12 — the vintage texture suits the watch's 1965 inspiration.

Is Christopher Ward worth buying aftermarket straps for?

Yes — Christopher Ward owners are among the most strap-conscious watch communities online. CW forums and communities like the CW Nation social group actively discuss strap pairings. The C60 and C65's bold dive-watch character invites experimentation — rubber, sailcloth, NATO, and tropic all look excellent and change the character of the watch significantly. AliExpress options at $5–$15 are well-suited to the CW community's pragmatic value orientation (CW owners chose a brand that delivers Swiss quality at British pricing — they appreciate value). The savings versus CW's own strap range ($50–$80) are meaningful for building a multi-strap rotation.
