Some great photos in here! Thanks for all the recommendations. I ended up going with a 60th from DavidSW, a great seller & transaction :) Enjoying an early Christmas this year!

CK-2998 followed by the FOIS and then the 60th for me. I had the 60th and didn't love the faux patina, but it's a nice watch for sure.

As it is such a personal choice, I'd suggest you try them all on a few times before making a decision
I made the mistake of taking my own advice and tried on a CK2998, loved it and bought it. I'm still in the honeymoon period, so can't make an objective decision yet on whether it beats the 60th. It is so much better on the wrist than I thought

Nice - I dithered when they had 2 in the regents street boutique a couple of weeks ago. I like it a lot but took too long and they had gone. Are you going to put it on a bracelet?

I would wait for Basel to see what they’re doing with the new 321 movement.

Hi Steve, I love it on the strap but may try it on the 60th anniversary bracelet. As that is the most fiddly bracelet I've ever tried to get off a watch I won't be doing so in a hurry. Glad to see you have regained a FOIS

I saw one on a racing bracelet and it looked great. Am sure the 60th will look nice with it’s polished outer links. Pics when you do it please!

Yep - got a FOIS again. I like the CK, but It was quite bright for me (so my wife says), so the fois suits and I can switch it up with brighter straps.
