The C60 Atoll 300 introduces an exquisite open-series collection, showcasing captivating gradient dials that seamlessly transition from light to dark hues. The vibrant lacquered dials, available in reef blue and shark white, are a nod to the picturesque atolls found in the Indian Ocean. Complementing these mesmerizing dials are color-matched date windows and a meticulously crafted steel bezel featuring a combination of sandblasted and polished surfaces. Furthermore, this exceptional timepiece debuts Christopher Ward's new slimline tapered rubber strap, further enhancing its aquatic allure.

Designed with discerning divers in mind, the C60 Atoll 300 maintains the exceptional performance expected from a Christopher Ward pro dive watch. While drawing inspiration from the super-slim C60 Trident Pro 300, this timepiece possesses its own unique personality and aesthetic.

Superior legibility is a hallmark of the C60 Atoll 300. The lume-filled handset and indexes ensure clear and precise reading in any lighting conditions. The date wheel, positioned at 6 o'clock, perfectly matches the dial's color, while the applied twin-flags logo at 12 o'clock adds balance and depth to the overall design.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the unidirectional bezel boasts an industrially sandblasted finish, creating a striking contrast with the highly polished raised numerals. The triangle marker on the bezel is filled with Super-LumiNova Grade X1 BL C1, enabling accurate timing even in the darkest depths. With 120 clicks per rotation, the bezel provides tactile reassurance and serves as a reliable timing aid, a result of extensive research and development.

Measuring 40mm in diameter and 11mm in height, the elegantly sculpted Light-catcher case is designed to suit a wide range of wrist sizes while offering an impressive water resistance of 300 meters. Turning the timepiece over reveals the screw-down exhibition case back, allowing a captivating view of the meticulously crafted Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement with its intricately engraved 'Christopher Ward' rotor.
