Basically, we have selected the (first?) FLE's for 2012. It will be version of the Trident C60, and there will be 50 available in blue dial/blue bezel and 50 in red dial/aluminium bezel.
Reservations will start soon!!

Re: 2012 FLE - which will make the best diver?
Thanks for posting this Alex, it finally puts paid to the debate which raged during the FLE process. Any colour face appears to be ok for a dive watch, just as long as the hands provide the highest level of contrast. So out of the red and blue, it is possible that the blue may edge it but as both dials will appear black at depth, the white hands will provide sufficiently high contrast for the time to be legible.

Hi Downer
Wow !!! thanks for that must have totally missed all this by only looking at certain bits of the Forum
Well not many places allow members to have as much input on design as this to final product
Think the Blue and Red both look pretty cool prefer the red by a feather
The Trident is a nice watch and face wise not unlike my Movado 800 series Dive Watch ( there is something about the black wave patterned faces)
On a side note for the dive theme i just bought a new Orange Quartz C6 in sale few weeks back which i had waited for long time
Sadly the second hand wasn't aligned correctly (even allowing for the convex glass)
However after Simon at CW examined and confirmed (excellent customer service again) i will shortly be receiving the blue version which has been checked for better alignment
This is fine as it was always a close call between the two colours anyhow for me
CW certainly does some great dive pieces and you never know if the Trident FLE comes out after Christmas maybe i will be able to justify a late prezzy !!!
Well thats the theory

Re: 2012 FLE - which will make the best diver?
It will be a case of reserving a watch (and selecting a favourite serial number) in the next few weeks, and then forcing ourselves to be patient until 2012 to pay for and receive the watches. I imagine (although I don't know) that it would be Feb/March at the earliest...richtea wrote:
