2013 FLE - Movement Type Poll
Just to show the fairness of this voting malarky
Poll 1 - Dress
Poll 2 - Up to GBP 600 / USD 825
Poll 3 - Auto
So 33% in line with the majority!
So at least I can't be called a sheep

Re: 2013 FLE - Movement Type Poll
Well however it turns out I wanted the sporty style so I guess yes, my vote contributed to a win

I enjoyed taking part in the vote and will do in the final poll for case style, but, just like everything else in life it comes down to personal choice. I may not have any say/imput into the poll results but if I like it enough I may buy it.

I guess that's the same for me, nothing I've voted for has won but I'm still wanting to see how things turn out just to see if it is something I might buy.
I'm hoping for possibly the C7 (Mk I or Mk II) case, housing a nice white face with either orange, British racing green or red accents/details, on a nice NATO or leather strap but I think I could be miles away from what the end result actually is.... Only time will tell!

Re: 2013 FLE - Movement Type Poll
Considering the quartz vote is only 20% at the moment it would seem unlikely. The C7 is a quartz chrono case and the price poll has ruled out mechanical chronos (and the C7 is too thin for one anyway) and with no quartz option then the quartz chronos are ruled out. If we tried to use the C7 case with a normal auto movement what would we do with the 2 chrono holes?Rookie1986 wrote:I'm hoping for possibly the C7 (Mk I or Mk II) case

I thought we could change the internal watch face for a "custom" designed one without the chrono parts??ianblyth wrote:Considering the quartz vote is only 20% at the moment it would seem unlikely.

Re: 2013 FLE - Movement Type Poll
Ah got yah, I'm not really sure if there would be a way to resolve that, would have to enquire if the case can be ordered without the holes drilled maybe??Mr Rick wrote:

Anyway I worry too much, this is the job of the FLEC so I'll leave them to it, I'm still too new to the watch world...

Just got back from a good night out and all I can say is: the lunatics are in the hall asylum.
No more Quartz (except when I cannot resist).
