My heart hurts knowing there are so many good watches I must forgo for the one I have (or will have) in hand.
Now here is a thought…

If you like the FLE…

It is here today, gone tomorrow.

A Trident Pro 300 will be around for you to pick up later, if you still want one.

I have five Trident dive watches. I don’t have a limited edition Sealander with a black/white textured dial (but I will in May :)).

You know it makes sense. :)

Neil
To pile on to what NBG said, the 300 was released in Aug 2022. It will be around for a few years at least. The LE will be gone forever!

Only 1 spot remaining!!

Who wants it? First come first served.

After this, any names go on a wait list.

Hahaha, Neil that makes absolute logical sense. But watch collecting and sense (for me) was never in the equation.

In saying that, I do have a daily beater that meets my current requirements that the FLE would overlap on. Or so I will keep telling myself as I sit in green envy. :silent:
My wife thinks I have a watch problem. I'm a glass half-full guy, I think of it as a healthy interest in horology ;)

Welcome to the forum asylum. :wave:

Best advice is to PM or email to @Kip, who is maintaining a 'Wait Iist'.

He may know of, or will be contacted by, someone who wishes to give up their reservation / purchase.

Do we have an update on when the sample dials will be ready so we can see some photos of how they look?

@iain I have been chasing this for a little while, including another email last night. The expectation is that it's not far off, but as soon as I know anything firmer than that, then I'll let everyone know.

Fingers crossed that it won't be too much longer. :thumbup:

@welshlad thanks, I was just going to give the thumbs up to your post but they don’t seem to be enabled in this part of the forum.
