2012 Forum Limited Edition (#1?)

Post by Kip »

Regardless of the success of the 2011 FLE, quite a few were not only disappointed that the C60 was not selected, but were also priced out of the FLE simply because of the unforeseen final price.

Chris had an idea! .... and after some discussion with Chris.... we have a proposal......

How about a 2012 FLE to be released by next February...that is affordable!


No committees! Just a few limitations.

1. We must be quick - final submissions to CWL by July 31, 2011

2. C60-TRI is to be used as the base unit

3. We cannot change the physical case which means the physical bezel stays as is.

4. We cannot change the dial.

5. We cannot change the hands

6. We cannot change the date wheel (maybe a black date wheel)

7. We cannot change the movement

What we can do.....

1. Pick the dial color

2. Pick the lume color on the dots and markers

3. Pick the lume color on the hands

4. Pick the bezel insert color

5. Pick the bezel print (dots and numbers) color

6. Pick the minute track color

7. Pick the bezel dot color

8. We can mix and match colors within reason

Rules/guidelines

All choices will be put to a final vote and majority rules.

Christopher Ward will have final approval of submitted designs

Anyone can submit a completed design to the forum.

All lume colors are to be chosen from the Super Luminova chart only.

All other colors can be taken from anywhere else. We may use a color that is currently in the CWL line.

The link for the Pantone color chart is here.
This is a standard reference.

If an individual design is submitted for consideration to the Forum and is not chosen as the final selection for the 2012 FLE, it will be presented to CWL as an option to be considered for the CWL 2012 line. If the design submission is chosen for use in 2012 the person who submits the design will be eligible to receive this 2012 FLE Free of charge, courtesy of CWL!

The Forum Team (Hans, Kip, Yoda) will control and setup the voting process and adhere to deadlines to be determined as this process unfolds.

In the case of tie votes the Team will be allowed 1 vote to break the ties if deemed necessary. The vote to be submitted by consensus by any one Team member.

If you have an idea that is not coming through via discussions, try contacting someone who can photoshop (or equivalent) for you. If unsuccessful please contact Kip via pm or email and I will do my best to get that idea done for you via CWL.

The best part is that the final product will be at current retail prices as shown on the website for the strap/ bracelet you choose. Chris will absorb any price increases and production costs for the FLE changes we make within the guidelines.

CWL shall retain right of refusal for technical or financial reasons.

Current retails on June 19,2011

C60-TRI-SKSI - 335 GBP (non EC 279.17 GBP)
C60-TRI-SKK - 335 GBP (non EC 279.17 GBP)
C60-TRI-SKS - 375 GBP (non EC 312.50 GBP) This will be with the new bracelet for FLE


Any questions?

It is now open season for the 2012 C60FLE......at least the first one!

Let the discussions/suggestions begin!
