Brand: Christopher Ward | Model: C63 Sealander Yalos | Category: Dress Watch / COSC Chronometer | Release Year: 2026
Last updated: October 29, 2026
The Christopher Ward Sealander Yalos is the dressiest Sealander yet: a 39mm, 9.9mm-thin 904L steel watch with a COSC-certified Sellita SW300-1 chronometer movement. Its four stamped, lacquered dials (Ice Blue, Salt Pink, Sand White and Sea Green) drop lume entirely for faceted, light-catching hands and indices. It starts at $1,815 on suede or $2,095 on the Consort bracelet.
The Sealander has always been Christopher Ward's go-anywhere sports-explorer watch. The Yalos takes the platform somewhere new, turning it into a slim, bezel-free dress watch that still offers 100m of water resistance. The dials are the main event. Each of the four colours gets its own texture, made with custom stamping tools that strike the dial three times before the colour treatment and lacquer are applied. The finish ranges from frosted ice on the Ice Blue to a brushed-grass effect on the Sea Green, and all four are themed around the meeting of land and sea. For the first time in the Sealander line there is no lume. Re-proportioned hands and indices with a central polished facet carry legibility instead. Inside is a COSC-certified Sellita SW300-1 running at 4Hz with a 56-hour power reserve and a rated accuracy of -4/+6 seconds per day, visible through a sapphire caseback. The case and the reworked five-link Consort bracelet are both 904L steel, and the bracelet tapers from 20mm to 16mm with tool-free iLink sizing and 3mm of micro-adjustment at the butterfly clasp. A chronometer movement, 904L steel and dials this textured at around $2,000 is a rare combination. This is a regular-production model, not a limited edition, and all four dials come on either the bracelet or Vesuvio suede straps.
Christopher Ward's first lume-free Sealander is a regular-production model, so secondary-market premiums are unlikely. Its value is in the specification: a COSC chronometer, a 904L case and bracelet, and triple-stamped lacquered dials at a price well below most Swiss chronometer dress watches. The Sea Green and Ice Blue dials are likely to be the most sought-after, and the bracelet version should hold its value best.
