great job everyone, lots of good design throughout the process... I like all three finalists, but The Scooter is looking good for me followed closely by The Red Jag on a leather strap as it seems to provide a nice contrast to the aluminium bezel :)

Ok, this isn't a government election but it is first past the post vote.
This is not first past the post if it were the Scooter with 46 votes would already have won, now we have a situation where red might win when more prefer blue. because it has gone on in knock out rounds then like the Fa Cup it should end up being a fight between the two finalists
Well, it is a long drawn out version of first past the post but we must remember we are not electing a government or playing for the FA Cup. This is more important than that! So two more rounds please!

Like all politicians in a minority party, my favoured watch is likely to lose, I'm in favour of two more rounds. :) All three finalists are worthy contenders. But, I'm not a fan of red-faced watches and the Scooter although a lovely watch is more of a mainstream CWL model, it lacks that distinctive edge for a FLE, IMHO. So vote Wilko! :D

I have posted a 2 day poll here to decide what to do about the final 3.

I'm undecided as to whether or not I vote, on the simple principle that if I don't plan on buying one I shouldn't help decide the out come.

I've a quick look around and have not seen (or missed) details on when the final watch is expected to be ready. The later the better for me if I'm to commit, as it might be for those who have the 2011 to pay for and/or has dived into the sale, holidays etc.

Any ETA for the winner to be produced and likely invoice month/year?

I'm of the 'white dial' camp too so i'm out as i wouldn't buy one of those myself. It was a fun experience though and think this process is possibly the best way to sort out future Forum LE's.
I miss all the great things that may never be.
