Christopher Ward, Official Timing Partner of Everton Football Club, is giving fans the chance to own a piece of Goodison Park history, as the Club begins the countdown to an emotional goodbye to their iconic home.
The Anglo-Swiss watchmaker has integrated pieces of the Goodison Park turnstiles into a specially crafted, limited-edition timepiece to commemorate the Grand Old Lady.
The Goodison watch, which celebrates the unforgettable moments of Everton’s legendary home ground, Goodison Park, gives fans the chance to own this unique memento, which includes a backplate forged from a Goodison turnstile and is embossed with an engraved aerial view of the stadium against a royal blue background.
All orders* will be delivered with a free strap made from an authentic Everton team shirt, while the first 100 orders of The Goodison will have their complimentary strap made from an authentic, match-worn Everton home team shirt from the final season at Goodison Park.
Produced by local strap-maker Zulu Alpha, this high-quality strap represents a unique piece of memorabilia that means a material piece of Goodison’s last season will remain with fans forever.
Every detail of the watch itself encapsulates the spirit of Goodison, from the famous royal blue through to the stopwatch seconds’ hand coated in the club’s ‘away-strip yellow’.
The hands of the watch pay tribute to the Littlewoods clock, which stood as a ticking witness to decades of memories, while the inside track of the dial features etchings inspired by Archibald Leitch’s iconic stadium architecture.
Christopher Ward, the UK’s largest watch brand, is limiting production to a total of 1,892 timepieces, as a tribute to Goodison’s founding year and a lasting legacy to our historic stadium.
Mike France, CEO and co-founder, Christopher Ward said:
“My father first took me to Goodison Park as a three-year-old.
“Since then, like for so many Evertonians, the Grand Old Lady has become an essential part of my life.
“It’s somewhere I have experienced the highest highs and – as all Evertonians will also attest – occasionally the lowest of lows.
“When we decided to mark this historic moment, we knew we needed a watch that captured the unique spirit of this historic ground. It needed to be very special. The Goodison is that watch.”
Mark Rollings, Director of Partnerships at Everton, added:
“Since becoming Everton’s Official Timing Partner in 2022, Christopher Ward has deepened their commitment to the club and its supporters.
“As the Official Shirt Sleeve Partner for the final season at Goodison Park, Women’s Back of Shirt Partner, and a Founding Partner of our new stadium, Christopher Ward has proudly stood alongside Everton through its historic transition.
“This unique watch continues that partnership, celebrating the club’s past while looking towards its future.”
As part of Christopher Ward’s 2% for GOOD initiative, 2% of all sales from The Goodison will be donated to Everton in the Community, supporting the club’s long-standing efforts to make a difference in the lives of people across Merseyside.
