This does look good, although I am still more of a blue fan. :D
No more Quartz (except when I cannot resist).

It seems a bit odd to me that it has to come fitted witrh a C60 strap when the C40 is much better suited and the same price?? I don't really want to buy on a bracelet, used to wear them but rarely do of late.

:fluch: :fluch: :fluch: :fluch:

I feel better now, still seems b****y stupid to me that leather strap does not suit the watch, in fact to me it is a complete mismatch!!

Nice look at the new bracelet as well.
Not 100% sure, but I believe so.

IIRC wasn't there going to be some leeway on straps with perhaps a choice of stitching on the leather? :?
As far as I remember, there was not going to be any leeway on straps, and this was a deliberate choice in order to contain the costs. ...
You are correct, my misunderstanding.

I think I got confused with the discussions as to what people would like. Apology for any alarm and distress caused. I will be saving for ordering a FLE on a bracelet and getting a strap as well separately. I too think the Grand Prix style straps with the black/blue or black/red would look good on the 2012 FLE watches.

I voted for it & wanted one right up to the moment the CW renditions came out. Sadly they didn't seem to match the watch colour JAG had designed. Very disappointed :( . Not seen anything else recently that floats my boat either other than the jump hour 8) which pricewise is way out of my league :shock: .

Guess I'll have to wait & see what they actually look like in real life as the CW mock-up looks dark, dull & lifeless. If it ends up looking more like JAG's original then I might be tempted.

Thanks for the info tho' :)

Colors are always controversial. I prefer the darker red, but understand how people prefer the color represented in Jags original rendering.

Either way I have reserved one as I will be happy with either rendition.

I gather it is the same red as the C70IT - in which case it will be stunning - cant wait for #90!
