CW hand wound?
I really like the idea of a modern uncluttered handwound.
Based on C8 pilot with white face and blue numerals and hands, red second hand, no date.
Are there any plans for a hand wound CW? I love the 2011LE, but I don't get the premium value of the LE watches.

Well, the FLE's are a very limited production run.
Plus there is one for £500 at the moment.

Now you are talking my language. With a nicely decorated 6498-2 or 6497-2, just to make it that bit more special.
I would pay top dollar for that.
Hand wound all the way for me and red second hands are the biz.

Re: CW hand wound?
As far as I can see the only real benefit to a hand wound watch vs. an auto is that you can make the whole watch thinner at a lesser cost than by buying in ultra thin auto movements, and CW don't seem to feel the need to go thin anyway!
Not to say I wouldn't buy one if it came along... assuming it was classically inspired and executed with a black dial and sub-seconds
