I think the craftsmanship looks great and I love the rich color and grain of the cocobolo....
However, I really dislike the silver and oval design and the inlays on the butt sleeve. Something about the silver rings bothers me. I do like the forearm inlays.
I actually think I would like the cue better if the handle and the wood in the inlays matched. That would tie the whole cue together... burl handle with burl inlays or cobobolo inlays with the cocobolo handle. And I would remove the ivory window behind the butt sleeve diamonds.
I applaud your creativity and design initiative, but something about it just doesn't fit into my category of taste... I guess I am an old schooler when it comes to cue design.
I also don't see the "Limited Edition" as being a selling point for me. I just don't get the allure of owning one of 25...

I like #2+3 better than #1.
I think you need more contrast between the white of the window and the white of the diamonds than the silver provides. I just don't have a suggestion about how to get that contrast. Maybe wood matching the butt and forearm with silver inside and the current inlay wood inside that? With some change like that I'd call them even.
