Some very interesting results after the 100 vote milestone and IMO a couple of surprices too. The % are taken at 100 votes.

Chronomat B01: The modern B doing quite well, even after all the critisism and that´s before no ones even seen it in the metal. 13%
Chronomat: I expected to kill here as it´s supposedly beeing B:s biggest hit and a stunning piece at that. Still doing good though. 12%
Navitimer: As the quintesential and classic Ling, very strong presence here as it should have. 17%
Blackbird: Gets much love and admiration on the forum, for a good reason so maybe should do better? 9%
Skyracer: Very racy and cool design, but they´re somewhat rare aren´t they. 7%
Cockpit: This understated and stylish piece is allso quite rare. 2%
SA: Killing here, as it´s very current and fashionable everyday wear. Seems to be THE watch of choise for most. 23%
AS: SA:s smaller sibling, IMO unexpectedly doing better then some long time favourites. 12%
SO: An understated and stylish classic, but where is the love here??? 3%
Colt: With its bang for buck should get more noticed? 2%

As I´m still quite new to this great forum and in the world of B ownership this is so very intriguing and instructive. I expected the Navi and Chronomat to cruise with ease and the BB and SA to breath down their neck. I allso thought The Colt and SO:s would do significantly better. I didn´t think the B01 would do nearly as well as it´s doing... But there you go.

...and of course things can still change. Regardless of the poll, they´re all absolutely wonderfull pieces and all should be proud of theirs. Each to their own and it would be so very boring if all liked the same. :lingsrock:

just some thoughts!

Agree, can't believe the Seawolf was missed off the list ?

Best Ling in '2009' for me by far and superb value for money 8)
