I purposely ignored the white faces blue hands. The c10 went down that line and ended up a disappointment

I like (and voted for) your C65-22. Lovely green.
Which would you prefer instead?

Agreed, for people that are genuinely interested in obtaining one of the watches I think estimated costs could change the outcome of the voting to some extent.

It's probably nbot feasible to get the estimates at this stage but I believe that they should be incorporated in the next round of voting.

Thanks! I really like mine as well, but it looks like the dark green 28 is getting more votes . . . although it is much closer now. I'd say if 28 starts to pull away, I'd like to see a dark green more than a blue dial. Perhaps folks will keep looking at my 22 and keep voting for it and push it up!

For now, lets see where things go, but if it looks like 28 is pulling out of reach, I'd rather see people vote for that green (28) and not spend a vote on mine (I voted for both).

I would like to remind everyone that the more changes we make, the higher the cost. Some will be easier than others to change. Regardless, you need to remember that the FLE, regardless of which model, will sell for more than the posted price. We will get estimates when the field is narrowed down a bit.
The answer concerning the costs is already addressed in Kip's first post. I can understand that it is impossible to estimate the prices for all entries. Rule of thumb: the more changes, the more expensive. :D

1, 9, 16 & 19 for me as I think that they're the most individual suiting a Limited Edition

I would like to think that people will vote for the specific models that they prefer and don't readily resort to tactical voting.

Quite agree Scooter.

I've cast 5 votes in each category for those designs that I like, are different to prevoius Forum LEs and, quite importantly, will IMHO 'work' as a Forum LE. In a couple of cases it seems that I've selected a front runner in the current voting.

Of course, votes can IIRC be adjusted up until the deadline; so there's plenty of opportunity for change (if I feel it is warranted, which I hope it isn't).

My votes are in. Some great designs chaps.

I have a thing for black watches at the moment, so there is a clue to where at least one of my votes might have gone

ooh this is getting exciting, it's very difficult to choose and I notice some of my choices aren't very popular with the rest, but there's also a couple that are so all is good :clap: ......I feel i'm going to be addicted to checking the poll for changes over the next 7 days :oops:

A big thank you to all involved in organising this and congratulations to all that have submitted designs and ideas. :clap: :clap:
