It says pre-order for early March. Early in the month is any time between the 1st and about the 27th. Midmonth is between about the 7th and the 30th. Expect to see them in April.

Or May.

Projections based on the 2015 FLE. :wink:

Me too! I've always liked a blue dial. If the square design is done well, the Slimline square could be a great looking watch.

Saw them. Do you like the watch? It looks like it fits your wrist very well.

Hi Rob - would you be able to post comparative wrist shots of the slimline FLE and the square, to help us get an idea of which wears the largest? Thanks.

Thanks. Does this involve watch shop browsing before hitting the bars? :)

mine is on my wrist - serial no 71 to go with 71 for the slimline -both on identical brown straps with bader clasp - and have a second slimline on black to save changing straps!

first thoughts - nicely made / shape works well / very light / nice movement / I would be happy with bigger, so if you are used to C60 / 600 etc. this wears smaller - wears smaller than C13 / C15 / like the slimeline2 logo - lovely watch
