Yes. Something like this. Also as I said in a previous post I'd like to see a Dartmouth mock-up with a black bezel/red pip, ivory dial, gold hands/markers, and black seconds-hand with red tip. I'd just like a visualization of it so maybe it could be worked on? It's pretty vintagey IMO.

Re: FLE #8 design submissions
I’d like to see this one with plain smoked dial (not device print), navy blue word mark at 9, applied twin flags at 12, yellow tip second hand and black strap.

Re: FLE #8 design submissions
Guys,
Can we please stop debating whether the logo can be moved on these two models. Kip made it clear in the original FLE post and also above in his latest post that that isn't going to be an option:
Also, this thread is not the right place for speculation as to what CW may do with their logo on future watches.
So let's get back to discussing and showing designs that meet the ground rules. Thanks!

Whether we you agree with this is neither here nor there - it ain't gonna change. That's one of the rules of the FLE game and it has always been so for this FLE.

^^^ No issues here, just didn't want to waste my time making a no date C60 if that were the case. High res mockups often take me over an hour to complete.

Re: FLE #8 design submissions
I am not trying to cause trouble - I am just not 100% what this means. The C65 trident has flags at 12 and Christopher Ward at 9.welshlad wrote: ↑Thu Oct 10, 2019 5:25 pm Guys,

Does that mean we can then have twin flags at 12 on the C65 Dartmouth FLE (if that is chosen)?
And if we can - do we need to have Christopher Ward at 9? Or can we drop the Christopher Ward (to look like the C7 Rapide Automatic?)
The issue is undoubtedly mine but I cant figure out what's what here

Re: FLE #8 design submissions
Frankly I’m not interested in either of the options as basic 3-handers.
What could interest me would be a GMT version of the Dartmouth, is this possible?

Re: FLE #8 design submissions
If that were possible I assume it would have been in the vote for the base models. Would need to do a revote given the C60 and C65 GMT models were separated from the 3 hand models.

I wouldnt mind seeing this if somebody with the photoshop skills could do a mock up pleaseMagnus wrote:The Dartmouth in a very dark grey/charcoal would be superb.
Raised twin flag logo at 12.
Black second hand with white lume/tip
I don't know how to do photoshop but if one of our experts could make a mock up it would be much appreciated.

Re: FLE #8 design submissions
i personally would like the FLE to look a bit different to what is currently on offer. i would love a bit of bronze if possible or even the trident being a different colour than just SS.

Re: FLE #8 design submissions
There is a blue case Trident in the melting pot – they have never done anything like that before. It’s just needs enough people to vote for it and we could make it happen, couldn’t we?

I know it's never going to happen, but I would buy that. So, so much better....nordwulf wrote:Many fans of the Mk1/2 don't like the Mk3 hands at all, including myself. So maybe you want to move forward with the new but I think many still prefer the classic hand design.Bahnstormer_vRS wrote: ↑Thu Oct 10, 2019 2:27 pm We're now on C60 Trident Mk3 and surely we want to move forward with the new.
The forum banner still shows the Mk2 classic design, perhaps time to update because we need to move forward and forget about the old stuff.
Hey, at least I didn't put the classic Chr.WARD on the dial which would look even better.

Re: FLE #8 design submissions
Has Kip pulled all of his hair out by now ?
I've lost count with how many times he or somebody else has said that the logo CANNOT be changed or moved for this FLE.
If it's at 9o'clock on the standard CW release (C60) then it has to be at 9o'clock on the FLE.
If it's at 12o'clock on the standard CW release (Dartmouth) then it has to be at 12o'clock on the FLE.
This FLE is not going to happen is it ... can anybody photoshop dogs chasing their own tails?

Re: FLE #8 design submissions
People need to just accept things as they are presented. The C60 has the logo at 9 to balance the date. The Dartmouth has at 12 because there is no date. That's it. There's been just as much mumbling about nonsensical changes as there's been potential mock-ups.
Kip needs to get the poll up for the final model to choose so artists can focus on one piece. It's a bit all over the place right now with no direction.
