Continuing the success of Morgan’s partnership with fellow British company, luxury timepiece producer Christopher Ward, has the elegant watch on offer and you really do not need to own the car to wear this watch.
The two companies are delighted to collaborate on another timepiece for the Morgan range. A C1 Morgan Plus 8 Chronometer Anniversary watch will accompany each Plus 8 50th Anniversary Edition produced, allowing owners to extend their Morgan experience beyond the pure driving pleasure that the Plus 8 provides. Each Christopher Ward and Morgan Plus 8 50th Anniversary Edition watch contains a small piece of the original ‘MMC 11’, the car that the anniversary model pays homage to, embedded into the back plate. Ownership of such a watch allows each customer to become a true custodian of the Morgan Plus 8, with ownership spanning half a century.
Morgan’s design team worked closely with Christopher Ward’s product team to create the watch design, which is powered by Christopher Ward’s renowned mechanical chronometer Calibre SH21, with a unique new dial, strap and subtle detailing. They also collaborated to design the dashboard dial faces for the Plus 8 itself, allowing both the watch and the car to take inspiration from each other. Each watch will be numbered 1-50 and every owner will receive their corresponding numbered watch for their Plus 8.
