Looks much better on these outdoor pics... would love that white accents of the watch were also in some lighter gray shade for complete stealth look... but much much better than the boutique pics...

Congrats archer!

The outdoor shots look better. I think it would look nicer on a dark grey strap tho.

To me the gray ceramic looks kind of cheap. Really was waiting for this release but now i am frustrated a little bit.

Thanks for the extra pics - strap looks great. I really like the look when the ceramics appear darker in some lighting.

Finally! Thanks so much for all the pics Archer!

Do you plan on keeping it on the default strap or switching to something different? Would love to see it on the normal gray, white, or black strap before deciding on this one.

A big congratulations and thank you for the extra pics! If you get around to taking moreC can you try to capture the vertical brushing on the bezel. Does the comfrey make it harder to see?

Looks absolutely superb in these shots. How does the ceramic appear in person, more black or more pale grey ?

Love the light gray strap but it will be better without two tone darker side/inside part...

the two tone strap on this one seems way better than the on one the ss variant I saw at the boutique. the store employee also thought it was shit. Maybe the productions versions are better. The one I saw, the black (where the lighter grey is on this model) looped way more plasticy (not a word, I know lol). This one seems good. I'd be putting it on my diver strap from the QEII or a the all grey diver strap or black rubber or gator. Lots of options! I'm jealous and the girlfriend is already tired of hearing about this watch! lol

Many congrats, and the new pics look much better as we suspected. I prefer a grey/black colour scheme to grey/white so not for me, but it should appeal to many. Should now be more CE 42s released next year, with maybe different coloured bezels too.

Thanks guys.
I am using the watch three days in a row and very happy about it - very comfortable and i mean it. My wrists are familiar with comfortable watches like RM and Aqunaut so this is as good as them.
