Re: Future Forum Limited Editions

There's no point in pulling 60:60, because under the UK distance selling regulations you can send it back anyway... not necessarily so - could be a grey area... if it comes under comissioned items, then there is no right to return: Does the right to cancel apply for all goods bought by mail order? ...

Re: Future Forum Limited Editions

The 2015 is perhaps one of the more cohesive - however it was still the result of numerous polls for the writing on the front / the writing on the back / the crystal specification / etc. I do think though that we are seeing a process where the amateurs are trying to take on a difficult task (of find...

Re: More Goodies in the 50% Off Clearance...

had the green and white been a 42mm non-GMT I would have helped you out - however too small, and don't want GMT - so left for you... have bought the gold C5 though :)

Re: Future Forum Limited Editions

Another issue to consider is the different approaches in design: - CWL design to suit the majority / the market - FLE process is basically about whoever shouts the loudest and mixed people with different design styles / desires / capabilities each bringing a part of the final design - there is no co...

Re: C5 Slimline 2 (real life pic)

I liked the C15 and this will wear smaller and thinner. I am looking forward to its arrival. It will provide a very nice alternative in my modern collection. My exact thinking - I liked the C13 / C15, but they were a little too thick, and I didn't like the off-white face This has the colours I love...

Re: Future Forum Limited Editions

It would be interesting to see what thoughts are on the most popular FLEs - but looking at how they sell second hand and having owned many of them, I suspect the C60s (red and blue versions) were - an perhaps this was because they were standard CWL watches, with a twist - the process is simpler, the...

Re: Thin watches?

For me it is not just the thickness, but the design - so the C9 range of watches don't work for me - they are too straight-sided for the depth and feel visually awkward on the wrist - despite owning a number of them I have sold them all... However the C60 works fine, yes it is thick but the design m...

Re: Pics of new C5 Square Slimline

Thank you Gary for the mock up , it does give some indication of size . :thumbup: Looking at Gay's mock up the first question which comes to mind is 'what is the point of it'? It is the same watch ( not universally popular given the number offered recently at 50% and 30% discount) but in a square c...

Re: Pics of new C5 Square Slimline

well I have had my order confirmed - and am getting the serial number of choice hopefully sent in the first batch... so photos once it is properly launched / made... for me the big advantage of this over the C15 I sold is the thickness (or lack of) in the watch - I don't mind face size - I dislike t...
