The short answer
The Christopher Ward The Twelve is an integrated-bracelet sports watch introduced in 2023, built around a twelve-sided polished bezel, offered in 36, 38 and 40mm and in stainless steel or grade-2 titanium. The steel models use the Sellita SW200-1; the titanium models (The Twelve Ti) use the COSC-certified Sellita SW300-1 — so they are not the same watch mechanically. Christopher Ward is an enthusiast-led, value-focused brand rather than an investment name. Fair Vintage confirms the variant from the watch, grades the condition, and gives a free, no-obligation valuation — all by post from Bedfordshire, with insured postage and payment by bank transfer within 72 hours of you accepting.
Introduced in 2023, The Twelve is built around a distinctive twelve-sided (dodecagonal) polished bezel and an integrated bracelet, with an exhibition caseback and 100m water resistance. It's offered in 36mm, 38mm and 40mm and in stainless steel or grade-2 titanium. The movements differ by variant, so knowing which you have matters — the titanium chronometer model and the steel model are not the same watch mechanically.
Use the Sellita SW200-1, with around a 38-hour power reserve.
Use the Sellita SW300-1, COSC-certified, with around a 56-hour power reserve.
Condition of the case, bezel and integrated bracelet (integrated bracelets show wear at the case join), the variant and size, dial finish, and completeness. Christopher Ward is an enthusiast-led, direct-to-consumer, value-focused brand rather than an investment name, so realistic resale expectations serve sellers best — some buyers place greater value on the titanium chronometer version, but demand varies by example.
Realistic expectations serve sellers best. Christopher Ward is an enthusiast-led, value-focused brand rather than an investment name. A buyer who understands the steel-versus-titanium movement split gives you a straight, fair figure for the exact model you own.
For The Twelve, buyers like to see the original bracelet links (so it can be sized), the warranty documentation, the packaging, and any additional straps originally supplied. Because the bracelet is integrated, having all the links is genuinely useful.
