White dial looks better to me...cleaner.

Silver dial but I am solidly unsure if I would buy this model.

If I was buying, I'd go with the white dial, as it is cleaner.

However, I'm unsure if this one is for me... Let's see how it develops.

Since it looks like it is heavily based on the forthcoming C9 7750, I imagine there are not too many design choices available to the forum members?

Well, I went for white, hope there's an option to vote for black subdials at some point! :lol: :D

White dial for the cleaner look.

The 'Chronograph' text looks a little bit on the large side as well. I think a more even text size would look better. After all the chrono function is pretty obvious, whilst the things that aren't (CW, auto, LE) are the things that will sell it, but are given less 'billing' on the dial.

Is blue the official colour of the Forum LE's? Or is it just a coincidence? Either way I am warming to this one. (It's going to be an expensive year end at this rate ;))

Looks different enough from the normal C9 Chronograph but I'm not sure if I like it enough to pay £700! That would be a big chunk out of my Stowa Chronograph fund which I think looks better.

And don't you think the FLE 10 and C9 look awfully close to this IWC?

Come on let's stop copying IWC otherwise we may as well just set up a "homage CW store" :shock:

P.S. Wasn't blue and white last year's colours anyway, and blue the designated 2008 colour

I voted white - a silver dial might be too 'Portuguese'

I think the white looks better but blue and white was the previous year's theme too and although a very different watch, that may put some off.

I dont think it fair that I should vote because this one's not for me though I do appreciate the work put into this years FLE.
I'v got to enough blue watches and I prefer the non-forum edition to be honest.

i voted silver... BUT : i'm afraid this years' LE isn't for me : i would rather buy the "standard" though already limited version of the C9 instead of this version. I particularly dislike these blue subdials...
