My current one at 38mm is good on my (smallish) wrist, but I could see it working up to 40mm max.

I agree that the 18mm strap is too small - I would prefer 20mm

I would get the winder slimmed down - the current one is just slightly too prominent (Chris and Wera kindly fixed this for me) and could use a slight shoulder to remove the sharpness.

Anyway - my 2p worth - a bit academic as I would probably not upgrade my existence LE anyway (I have become very attached to it :) )

I would like to see a larger case size as well.

Thinner would be good but if it can not be thinner then a better curve on the case/strap so it fits the wrist more snugglyt. My C5 looks a bit strange when I look at it with my arm out as there are gaps on either side of the case.

I am not convinced on the need for a date feature. An automatic without complications is easier to look after. Especially as the C5 has a very minimal look.
