2015 Inquiry Poll
Are you interested in coming up with a Forum Limited Edition for 2015?
Based on some discussions, the amount of PM's and emails I receive, there is much interest.
We have gone about FLE developments in a number of ways. One of the more interesting ways was the development of the C60 FLE (2012). After much discussion by the team and with Chris, we thought it might be time to revisit the same general process.
We need to know a few things first so want to put a few things out to a vote. Below is a list of current models, not including limited edtions, showing the price of the strap versions only. We can discuss bracelets at a later time.
What model would you like to see used as a basis for the 2015 FLE? We are talking about minor changes here We could, depending on the model, make changes to the crystal, dial color, hands, rotor and dial. Keep in mind that all these things would come at an additional cost to the base price shown.
We will also open a separate discussion area for ideas. At this point we are thinking of aiming at 100 pieces. Perhaps we are better aiming at something a bit more exclusive (and expensive) at a higher price and only have 25-50 pieces built. Something to think about....
For now we shall just be voting on the model(s). You may vote for up to 3 to narrow things down.

Re: 2015 Inquiry Poll
Woohoo! We're underway!
Shouldn't the C9 JH3 be included in the list, as this isn't a limited edition (unlike the JH1 and JH2)?

Re: 2015 Inquiry Poll
You are correct. I missed it.
I cannot edit the poll without losing everything, so if anyone wants the C9 Jump Hour MK III, pm me and I will keep a separate tally.

Re: 2015 Inquiry Poll
C5 slimline is my choice... but I wonder if CW could source a higher grade movement for the FLE - gold maybe, with the actual logo on? The standard one seems almost a waste of the display back

Re: 2015 Inquiry Poll
So far, three people have ticked the "mechanicals" box. I suspect this is an error. This poll is supposed to select the model, rather than anything else..
If you are one of the three, I recommend you change your vote.. The poll cannot be changed without losing all existing votes.

Re: 2015 Inquiry Poll
Goodness! I Have just voted and see that my votes coincide with the three most popular choices. Is it a case of 'great minds' or fools seldom differing?

Re: 2015 Inquiry Poll
I like the idea of the C65, but it looks like the slimline is pulling ahead.

Seriously, I think the process is almost as much fun as receiving the watch. Let the games begin and let's play nice kiddies!
