The only person who's got 'em is Todd (Ægir's owner), however the standard version of the CD-2 will be shipping in a couple of weeks. :thumbsup:

While I'm more than content to wait for my LE version, to say that I'm a bit envious of the lucky blokes who will shortly be receiving their watches is a bit of an understatement. To those gentlemen, I say, "Well done!" :cheers:

The standard CD-2 is hardly a "copy" -- trust me, you're getting all the goodness of the LE. :thumbsup:

In fact, the only visible difference between it and the LE is the Metta Caterina strap and caseback engraving attesting to Thomas Prescher's involvement (also, five will have blue tipped second hands and writing on the dial in place of red). Yes, the movement will be higher end, but you won't be able to see it.

Yep, 5 of the standard too have blue.
You have one Craig, I have another for myself, and the other three dials have tiny pieces of dust stuck under the appliques, so must go back to be sorted out.
Meaning there is only 2 for now.
