Definitely Black Gold, mysterious yet elegant. The others do not look as good, they look less distinguished. Fortte already stands out as elegant, and the others would cheapen that image where the Black Gold enhances their already established standout quality.

I like the antique silver. It looks sleek and gives off an elegant vibe. It appeals to both sexes and goes with every color leather that is available for the cases.

Agree with the Black Gold choice. It would be appropriate regardless of the color of the case.

I voted for the Black Gold, but the Italian Nickel and Bronze Stone are nice too. Maybe Salo and the group should offer the rest as options, possibly!

I voted for the black gold mainly because I want something as unobtrusive as possible. My current Fortte cases are actually logoless.

I would say Bronce Stone. Its a great contrast between light and dark. It would match well with either a light shade leather or dark. It gives that turn of the century look to the modern day design.

Count me in the Antique Silver column. I voted for that one even though, like many others, I also like the Black.

Gotta go with the Antique Silver, I think it would look better on a brown case rather than the black. They are all better than the gold IMO.

Black and Gold. I like black for a case and gold just seems like a nice compliment to it.

Same here. My Fortte Open Face case for my 7105t is logoless, but I did have it personalized with my name. The only way to know who made it is to take out my BB and look for the tag on the inside of the case.

I'm going out on a limb and voting for Italian Niquel. It's subtle and elegant that's what you want.
Salo, please feel free to pick me... I would love that custom case!

Italian Gold for me. I have one of their cases on order. I hear it shipped 5/5 from the factory. Unfortunatly, it will be a while before it makes it to AZ

Antique Silver. It gives more elegance and it will not be flashy and it can be more of a comon color than others.

I like the black gold to keep it an entirely black case.

Is there an upgraded leather available that keeps the case all black? It looks like on the web site that the only upgraded leathers have different color trims or are not black.

I like the Antique Silver if I wanted the logo to be noticed.

Bronze Stone. If your going to have a logo, you want people to see it. Of the five above, it stands out the most.

I have had my Fortte case for the 7130 for about 2 weeks. Other than the same case with a clear plastic front, don't know any other case on the market would be better.

I decided to go with the bronze stone. I think it is sophisticated and would give a beautiful contrast without being too overbearing and take away from the design. I believe that it would look great with each shade of leather as well as texture.

Italian Nickel will look cool with any color leather.
