This poll is not strictly about what you want nor what your favorite is. This poll is about what would you buy.

Examples........If not enough members would buy a 38mm C60 then it will get dropped from the submissions list to CW. If not enough members support either size and the support is sufficient for the C3 and/or the C5 then both C60's get dropped.

Question:
- If we stay as it is now, with probably one more vote goes to C60 in whatever variant, what happens then ?
C5 doesn't have 50 votes, but C60 in both variants combined have 50 votes (but not when singled out). Maybe C60 in 1 variant would have enough people for pass ?

As Welshlad stated above, everyone has 4 votes so if people like the C60 but preferred the larger size they may well already voted for both options and still could....ergo there may not be any/many more votes if only one variant was an option.

That is what is happening though. I mean clearly the C3 is winning and that's the direction forum is going. Not so worrying. When the C3 wins, we can all just move on to the next step and be done with this.

After much thinking the C3 has gotten my vote. I own several quartz watches despite recently becoming a Quartzophobic. I tend to associate special or limited watches with automatics so getting all jacked up for a quartz was hard. I did remember that one of my favorite watches ever (the Omega Seamaster in GoldenEye) was a quartz and in the end, it all feels the same on the wrist.

As both a sports and dress watch, this is a really unique piece; even compared to the Seiko it might be based on. Of the all the FLEs that have come out thus far, only the Scooter is high coveted. When it's all said and done I feel the Panda will join it as a piece people will wish they didn't miss. With the quality increase to the case/dial, and a two-tone display, this might be the best FLE yet.

I am also curious how many votes a quartz version of the blue/orange C60 would have gotten. This C60 300 version was suggested a few times but never made it to the first elimination poll. Price of the C60 automatic may have played an important part in getting less votes. Instead of the 38mm, the 43mm C60 300 quartz may have been a better competitor for the C3 quartz as it would have been the same price of £350 + modification cost.

Darn it.. I want a blue/orange C60...! Automatic or quartz, I don't care. :D

You make some good points. I too, would love an blue/orange C60

Looks like it's going to be the C3 which has been my favourite from the start having had significant input into the design.

Is it too early to reserve numbers? If not, may I put my marker in for number 11?

I'm afraid it's far too early to start reserving particular numbers.

Kip will keep you informed of each part of the process as he always does.

I think I know someone who will be vying for #11 so you had better stay up all night in the US when the lights go green.

Right there with you! I found it VERY difficult to vote for a quartz, however, the design is a winner. I also voted for C60 43mm and C5 V2. My preference would be either one of these over the C3.

Looks like only the C3 has sufficient support to be considered for the 2017 FLE.
