McQuaide unveils its second Damascus Steel series: the C1 Cosmopolitan
McQuaide has introduced its second collection of watches, the C1 Cosmopolitan, which showcases the craftsmanship of British watchmaking with an urban aesthetic. Launched globally, this collection builds on the success of the Q1 Damascus Diver, featuring timepieces forged from unique Damascus Steel, known for its distinctive swirling patterns. Each model boasts a textured guilloché dial and is equipped with a Swiss Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement, ensuring reliability and precision. The C1 Cosmopolitan collection includes four dial color options—Midnight, Solstice, Sunburst, and Evergreen—each selected to reflect natural beauty and the experiences of travelers. With a 39mm cushion-shaped case and a water resistance of up to 100 meters, these watches are designed for everyday wear while retaining their individuality through a unique Damascus Signature. Assembled in Berkshire, each piece comes with a two-year warranty and was officially debuted on Kickstarter on November 8, 2025.
