I missed the poll but the C65 would have been my choice. CW is already dress watch heavy. The C6 was and is my favourite and is the watch that got me into CW.

2. According to the CW website they do 81 dress/classic watches and 145 dive/sport watches. Go figure. CW is officially swimming watch heavy.

Damn ... wish I knew about this back in December. My vote would have been for the C65-15. Swee-eeeet looking design. Love the yellow face.

Re: 2015 FLE Final
I still really like the losing design of the Yellow C65... it has a charm and it's sweet. Seriously, the color must be considered for next year's FLE. I really think some sort of variation of the C60 (or even C65 again) should be it, like maybe an all brushed, tool version of the Trident 600 with this yellow dial and black bezel? Could be nice. I eagerly await all the ideas people will come up with when it's time.

Let us postulate that there were certain members of the forum who couldn't bear the thought of yet another diver derivative taking the FLE vote, and therefore intervened decisively in the final moments of the vote.
The Slimline was/is a worthy winner and the first ever hand wound "dress" watch FLE...we needed it (IMHO)
Pity we can't do something similar next Thursday...oops, sorry, politics!
