Christopher Ward introduces the Christopher Ward x Worn & Wound C12 Brooklynite, a limited-edition collaboration that celebrates the golden age of American Art Deco design. Unveiled at the Windup Watch Fair NYC, this 100-piece edition reinterprets the brand’s architectural C12 Loco model with design cues inspired by Brooklyn’s iconic Williamsburgh Savings Bank Tower.
Its champagne-hued dial, detailed with vertical relief markings and diamond-shaped hour markers, echoes the skyscraper’s limestone façade and monumental clock, grounding the watch in a distinctly New York aesthetic. The Brooklynite retains the C12’s striking 41mm 12-sided stainless steel case, integrated bracelet, and open balance architecture, showcasing the manual-winding CW-003 calibre with a remarkable 144-hour power reserve.
The dial-side flying balance, framed by geometric textures, adds a sense of motion and mechanical artistry that contrasts beautifully with the refined Art Deco-inspired subdial at 12 o’clock. Limited to just 100 pieces — with 30 exclusive to Windup and 70 available via Christopher Ward’s site — the Brooklynite combines the soul of vintage New York design with the precision of modern Swiss engineering.
Priced at $5,260, it’s both collectible and wearable, embodying the spirit of collaboration between two independent watchmaking tastemakers. The C12 Brooklynite is a statement piece that bridges past and present, art and mechanics, in true Christopher Ward fashion.
