2013 FLEC progress report #6

Post by Kip »

Here we are again with report #6 from the 2013 FLEC.

Honestly, I had hoped this report would not be necessary.

Since the last report (#5) we have tidied up the designs a bit and again forwarded to CWL for approval and pricing.

We have everything ready to go and believe we are within the parameters set forth by the forum. Unfortunately we cannot say, with absolute certainty, that we are. This is why we are awaiting confirmation from Chris.

The final designs have received unanimous approval by the commission and we are anxiously waiting to move forward just as you are.

The delay is in Switzerland and not with Chris at this point. As soon as the pricing is confirmed we hope to immediately proceed with the elimination vote.

If there are any issues with the pricing, the FLEC will address them when received.

Regardless, these few days of delay will not affect the long term plans for release of the 2013 FLE as we are still on schedule.

It is difficult I know, and the FLEC members thank you for your patience.

Stay tuned and keep watching.....
Kip

Thanks for the update. Always hard to wait but I'm sure it will be worth it. Once the pics are revealed the delays will fade into memory :)

Thank you all for your hard work. And really, its pretty darn fast to design and produce a watch. I like this whole FLE process better than the last two I watched. We patiently wait. :pfeif:
