That will be difficult Joe, because these are the design-pictures... but close your eyes a bit, boost your imagination and picture the same image with everything very dark, and the indexes and hands a bit brighter then now :wink:

(actually, I think the lume in these designs is a bit exaggerated, so these are already kind of lume-shots)

Hey, I gave that a shot. When I did it, the Forum LE came with a free yellow KF too. Does this really work?

I wasn't really attracted to the watch that much but it looks really appealing now. I also noticed it says 1000/300m. Did something change? The forum edition engraving on the back is also a nice touch.

Edit: What about the bezel dot? Will it be blue also?

ET, 1000ft / 300m was also on the original LE design, nothing changed there.

The bezel dot: good question, I'll verify this with Chris.

The dot will be white as shown in the last images. I talked about it with CW, and we tried it with blue but we agreed that it will look much better with white.

The normal C6 Kingsfisher-Pro is 140g and since the LE is an automatic - what will the weight be?

Probably a bit heavier, around 160-180g I assume, but I'll verify with CW!

Thanks for checking with CW. Also, is the deep sea blue dial face the same as the standard C6 Kingfisher Pro watch? I apologize if the answer exists somewhere in the forum

Hans, just to confirm because I think it looks cool in the picture, the square around the date aperture will be lumed?

I think that we can now safely assume that Joe's mind has gone off the deep end. ;)
