in the mental wanderings that occupy my restless mind i fully expect the MissF pink to be voted winner, as the universe pulls some sort of twisted scam on me..... then i'll be compelled to wear it forever, and wander the forum for eternity trying to persuade 99 other people to buy one too........ the trouble with that is that 42mm case size is just a little above my sweet spot.......

It's magnanimous that people are planing to abstain from voting if they have no intention to buy.
At the end of the day it needs to sell (better than the last FLE).
MissF Pink would actually sell quite well...

I can understand the designer of an entry voting solely for his / her entry but for others; they should vote regardless intention to buy. How else will it be a 'Forum LE'?
At this stage I'm not sure if l would buy one or not. The C65 is a good size for me with the C5 being a tad small; but if a C5 design that I like wins I may well be tempted.

As it is, choosing from amongst just the C5S entries is not going to be easy.
+1. Some super entries in there.

Just noticed that so far there are more votes cast in total for the C5S than the C65. Will that count at all in the final decision? Just thinking along the lines of the popular vote being taken into consideration if necessary.

I think that effectively comes into play in the final head-to-head between the winning C5S design and the winning C65 design, but makes no difference before that point.
