Sellita

Sellita's flagship automatic movement and the most widely used Swiss automatic caliber in production today, having filled the supply gap created by ETA's restrictions on third-party sales. A functional clone of the ETA 2824-2, it is dimensionally identical and shares the same parts compatibility. Available in multiple grades from Standard to Top, the SW200-1 powers watches from dozens of Swiss and international brands.

03The community take

Owners talk.

“

Owners widely praise the Christopher Ward C65 Dune Aeolian for its comfortable 38mm case size and the unique, improved sandy dial texture. Reviewers highlight the excellent value, solid finishing with a mix of polished and brushed surfaces, and the well-regarded Bader bracelet. One owner notes COSC-certified accuracy, gaining only 4 seconds in five days, while another reports accuracy up to 20 seconds per day. The bronze variant is noted for developing a warm patina over time. Some owners express concern that the sandy texture might become tiresome or that the grey dial could blend too much with the case and bracelet, and one wished for a 40mm option. The time-only models feature a Sellita SW200 movement with a 38-hour power reserve. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Christopher Ward C65 Dune Aeolian highly for its distinctive dial and excellent wearability at its price point.
