Re: FLE emails all sent
OK, I opened the box!
Never had any willpower.
Really impressed. I went for the alligator upgrade and think it really suits the watch.
Clean lines, lovely face, classy. Everything I'm not!
I don't have one of these new fangled clever phone thingies, so can't take any pictures, that will have to wait until the weekend.
I have to commend Wera and the team for the extremely fast delivery and the FLEC team for a very good looking watch.

Re: FLE emails all sent
Mine has arrived.
It's clean, crisp & elegant, has a nice weight to it but is not too heavy. I'm probably in a minority, but I actually like the strap although I can see the appeal of the tan ones & think it could work with a dark blue strap as well.
Is it for me...... sadly no, I don't think it is. I so wanted to like it but on opening the box I didn't get that intangible feeling that I've experienced on opening just about every other CWL parcel that has landed on my desk. I'll ponder it over the weekend to see if it grows on me, but if not this one will be appearing in Sales Corner on Monday.
Congratulations to all those who have theirs & love them, I'm sure it will be a much sought after classic in the next few years.

Re: FLE emails all sent
So apparently there is some new US legislation that has changed which prevents individuals to pay off invoices. Wera acknowledged other people were having the same problems paying for the watch via Paypal so she kindly gave me a call just now and we completed the transaction! Great customer service!

Hang on in. I was not that taken on first looks out of the box. But wearing it today as well it is growing on me more.Tyke wrote:It's clean, crisp & elegant, has a nice weight to it but is not too heavy.
