New C9 version
Re: New C9 version
IMHO it would look so much better if the logo was a little more 'discreet'.

Does it really need to be visible from space? On a dress watch....

I have to disagree. Your version makes the logo look way too small. Lost in fact. IMHO of course.downer wrote:IMHO it would look so much better if the logo was a little more 'discreet'.

New C9 version
Just noticed that the email and the website say this new version has a 22mm strap. The C9 has always had a 20mm strap up till now - in all its variants. I assume this is right (as it's in both places) and not a mistake.

Re: New C9 version
Whilst I don't mind the new logo at all I can kind of see your point, Downer, about the size. I do however think you may have gone too small with your version. Somewhere between the 2 would be perfect IMHO.
Still, that aside I wouldn't let it put me off buying one. It's on the wish list.

Re: New C9 version
I think the white face will look really sharp. After seeing the C90 becketts this should be great.

Re: New C9 version
I like it. A lot. It looks very classy and the gold against the blue second hand looks great. I won't mention the logo.

Re: New C9 version
This is my favourite of all the new releases. Very bold, yet really elegant. Really like, but yeah the logo could be a fraction smaller.
Re: New C9 version
I agree, I probably went a bit too far with the shrinking logo. Anti-exaggerating to make the point.Peteo wrote:
