The rules around exactly what makes a dress watch seem to vary depending on who you ask, but based on most interpretations the C5 Malvern 595 would certainly qualify. Modestly sized, clean, time only, and only 5.95 millimeters thick, the C5 Malvern 595 is delightfully thin for a mechanical timepiece, especially one available for a good wedge under $1,000.
Christopher Ward make confident use of their latest branding effort as the Malvern 595 represents an earnest effort in producing an immaculately crisp dress watch. The cleaner a watch dial becomes, the more consequential each small design choice becomes, and the balance here between brand prominence and overall elegance and restraint is handled admirably well.
