Thanks guys. Yes, i had my Octa Reserve for over a year, which served me well. The additional date complication was useful ... except that i still found myself thinking of the CS all the time. And i just can't afford having both. And so i finally took the plunge. And what a well-worth plunge it has been.
Indeed, the Calendrier is the next must-have piece for me - so am saving up for that next one! Glad that you're enjoying yours ...

Congrats!
I must admit I was stunned by the beauty of the CS on your wrist. Congrats on the trade, and indeed a good choice. 38mm CS fit my wrist better in proportion; Your 40mm is perfect for your wrist. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Congratulations on your choice............
The CS is imo a very beautiful watch and one that I would also like to own. I agree with your decision on the 40mm. You won't be sorry when you go for a Calendrier. It is my every day watch.

Congrats on this switch between 2 great watches
I also prefer the 40 mm CS. Thanks for your pics ! Emmanuel
The CS...Ahhh...
To me, the CS just sings. I read somewhere that it is FPJ's favorite model. Regarding 40mm and 38mm - I think it's simply a matter of personal style and taste. Both are correct. (I will confess a preference for the 40...)
