Perhaps the most unusual and certainly interesting "forms of grail" I've seen.
Absolutely AWESOME. :thumbup:

As the daily user of a yellow or orange Kingfisher, I share your feelings on these. Congrats! The blue one - indeed the trio - is fantastic!

Thanks. Would that be the blue one or the burnt orange one or the er, egg yolk yellow one :lol:
Haha, well I was referring to the blue, although the yellow and orange aren't too shabby either!

Pete, so pleased to see it with someone who'll appreciate such a stunning watch more than, sadly I ever did.

Congratulations!!

I know some think that this style is dated, but I still think it is one of the best looking sport watches CW ever built.

Excellent work Pete, they are three quite hard to find watches. I have only the burnt orange and yellow LE automatics, never picked up a blue (although I do have a blue quartz).

Hang onto them!

Reading through Kip has stolen my thunder as to the comment I was going to make, but I'll make it anyway;-

Top notch trio Pete; they don't make 'em like they used to.

I've owned, and let go, both the Burnt Orange and Yellow C60 Kingfisher Autos, but not the Blue Forum LE. Cracking watches really.

Enjoy them.
