WristScan

. . . hits'. This week, we'll be sharing our best images ever. Kindly share just one wrist and one static shot apiece, and the reason why you feel it represents your best effort. 'Perpetual promise' is my personal favorite . . . . . . for the juxtapositio...  

. . . per category to ease our judge's caseload. Thanks, Art

The picture speak for itself... As for the static, I would go for this one. First because I love trips, then because I love this watch so much. Which are tow excellent reasons. HAGWE, All. Nicolas ...  

. . . but I was so hoping 'Rasta Rolex' would get the nod for Static ;-) . . .

...  

Of this package... It's more than one year I am looking everywhere in my flat to try to find the Rasta Milgauss, to tell the truth. Best, Nicolas

At least to me. Had to do a double take there Very nice one!

My wife and my daughter couldn't believe their eyes... Best, Nicolas

Simply said: all the good properties, in reality ! Ahemm.. Some people might call it crazy, if a certain lawyer uses this as a sophisticated distraction tool.. In court !! LoLoL ! Cheers & HAGWE ! hs

A crazy fun shot, my friend! Best Blomman

... what really worries me now is to know you can loose a Milgauss in your lair! OMG!! PS: I can visualize the scene of you taking that mad shot at your balcony while observed by your dear family! That scene really makes me laugh my friend! Have a great w... 

They were laughing, in a mad way... Especially my daughter... Best, Nicolas

Look what happened to the last one kind of thing

That's the damn thing when you have a safe at the bank. You hide the one which is not at the safe, then you cannot remember where... But I will find it... As for the family, they are used to many things when we take watch pictures, but here, it was a summ... 

Now seriously speaking, I can understand you well. That´s a big problem. I wish you´ll find it soon! You surely will find it and enjoy! All the best my dear friend! Abrazos, Abel.

I once hid one in my sock. It was literally years before it surfaced again.

from window one I'll choose this and that Reason....lot of appreciation to many of you is hidden in this shots Some other day maybe two different shots but today this is my state of affairs Yours D ...  

. . . with that wrist shot, Damjan, if I'm not mistaken. He has a knack for putting glass backgrounds to good use.

but to Nico, blomman, Tyler, bim, foversta, andrewluff, Baron and even you

yes these were ambiental ones

The ambience of the first, the \'21st century still life\' of the second

The reason for this choice: watches are hot! Best Moritz ...  

. . . but never, to the best of my recollection, a lava lamp! Interesting, Moritz. No, make that . . . Arte Johnson on 'Laugh In' . . . very interesting.

Nice composition, great pic!

Both in watch and shot! Best Blomman

Elegance, original design and desire... perfect Moritz! Cheers, Mark

for static, the London map background is almost a signature, so here is my GP Vintage 94, Ref 2550 on the London Map: for Wristscan, my best shot I managed to take at the manufacture, wearing the Vintage 45, Large Date, Moonphase with blue Sapphire dial. ...  

. . . to have dew-drops on the crystal. Simply magical . . .

from all the Purists drooling while checking their bank accounts

Just marvellous ! Best, hs

And placing the GP next to the largest traffic violator in London is an interesting choice, too

So... The Blue is getting under your skin, my friend? Best Blomman

Team, Since I am on a "film noir" mode. My beloved Zenith Rainbow: Omega Olympic homage: A great weekend to all, Nilo ...  

That this Rainbow is an "out of band" Rainbow. It doesn\'t have the Rainbow ship on the case back and the crown and pushers don\'t screw. In fact it\'s an aviation watch and not a sea ready as the other Rainbows. Cheers, Nilo

The Omega looks even better in b/w! Best Blomman

1) The Sinn looks yummy on that shiny ceramic cooking pot cover 2) it displays my latest fascination with discovering straight hand lines on already taken photo HAGWE Edward ...  

...not only served but serving me daily for the last four years and I love it Best Edward

How can I find that one? Now if I had only given each of my photos a few stars, or "Likes" or something! Wahhh ... ...  

. . . I never promised you . . . Country classic . . . a rose garden.' Nobody said it would be easy, Mike ;-) . . .

Joe South wrote it

. . . damn, I'd forgotten Lynn's version wasn't the original. Everyone associates I've Been Everywhere with Johnny Cash, forgetting it was Hank Snow's song in the first place. Well, guess who duetted with Johnny on TV? Country legends Yup, none other than... 

Or have lots of excellent ones to choose from

I don't know.... But here are two shots of one watch I love! A watch that got a lot of wrist time this summer... HAGWE Blomman ...  

. . . but the one background that sticks in my mind is your Route 66 classic! The watch, I'm not sure of, but I think it was a JLC Compressor ;-) . . .

Thank you, my friend! Those shots I remember well! Best Blomman

The No chrono guy....! Best Blomman

Just not been drawn to them... But now I am hooked! Best Blomman

Best Blomman ...  

I have to agree with the quote from Samuel Beckett... Take your best shot and roll with it ; ). I remember reading "Anatomy of an $85.00 Watch: The Swatch Automatic" by Walt Odets... hard to imagine Beckett and Odets being mentioned in the same paragraph ...  

Thanks blomman... EF100 f/2.8 Macro at 1/64 - f/3.5 - ISO1600 [nt]

I actually took the first two courses of Walt's online watch training... it was a lot of fun and added to my enjoyment (if not my skill) regarding watches ; ) Casey

But here goes. First the wristshot. Considering this is an iPhone picture taken while driving.....not too bad (it was all about the sunlight) And now the static. Guess I'm going for summer memories and freshness in the watches/dials. ...  

. . . is the next can.' American folk wisdom

Apart from the very last can ;-)

LOL

A winner to me!

Just can't decide which I love more? The I-Phone Wrist Scan is better that any scan I've ever posted. Your Patek is a Patek. What more needs to be said. Your Rolex is like no other Rolex I've seen - Stunning! Wear in good health, Miki

tnx

Great ?.. I don\'t know, but it gives me real pleasure to look at them, and both have a bond dear to me. So WS first : chose it, because resembles a watch which parallels this my passion for timepieces.. - because it was taken at pre-Xmas, one of my fav w...  

. . . would be your submission for Static, h. If memory serves correct, it's garnered honors here on more than one occasion . . .

Here it is, then - specially for you ! Breguet Type XX So maybe I picked the wrong " Greatest".. My very Best, hs ...  

No matter which photo! Best, my friend Blomman

))

Very nice pics, both. Just a detail question on the TT - was the shot taken in the far north, as the watch seems in the middle of a date change?

.. it was in fact 4 mins after noon, and not after midnight; Therefore in midst of date- change.. I really like the shot, as it puts sunshine & shot on the TTP\'s dial.. Cheers & Best, hs

The date change notwithstanding...

Well, I really don\'t know whether those happen to be \'the best\' shots, but to me they capture the character of this re-edition of the first dive watch Panerai has produced with the help of Rolex... Cheers Henrik ...  

For my best static photo I choose this one... The Minerva picture was my first winning picture on the PuristS, more than five years ago. The monochrome wrist shot is one of many, it's impossible to choose only one... Best Regards Livius ...  

this Minerva is most laureated watch in WS history Bravo Livius Best Damjan

. . . 'cause on first glance, your wrist is practically invisible. Good call!

A beauty - in color and B/W! Best Blomman

And so aptly captured, too

My fav is the 2nd pic, this mystery WS ! Cheers & HAGWE ! ha

I've always liked the kind of monochrome pictures. For me, this DB25 one is a picture and watch which are among the ones I prefer. Have a great week-end everyone! Cheers, Mark ...  

that came as surprise Nevertheless astonishing shot of handsome DB

but thought people were going to be fed up with them :p And I wanted to push forward my DB25 which I find more photogenic You make me realize I don't have DB25 shots with the piano Thanks for your words and have a nice end of week! Cheers, Mark

This DB deserves piano shot a la Mark in Paris for sure HAGWE D

But, here you go.... HAGWE, everyone! Ken ...  

. . . 'hat trick' . . . Luck has nothing to do with it . . . . . . this weekend ;-) . . .

Really, really nice watch - can see why you would choose this

here's two of mine. HAGWE. ...  

Hoping to catch up with your soon. Z' ...  

against the rules ) Peseux inside. In real life, one day, maybe?

happy to see you back Eitan Yours

. . . WotW for that Longines chrono . . .

I nearly posted a certain gold Longines chrono for you - maybe next time.

Thanks - hope the summer went well for you and the family.

Darko conversation Summer was....chaos....sadly.....ah well maybe winter will be good...it's something wrong when I'm looking forward summer My best to you and family D

PS: Sincere Congrats to your honors !

Gigante Chronometre in Pt ...  

. . . it would be instructive to see how that larger-than-usual chronometer comes across in its natural element. Personally partial to chronometers, but my vintage pieces are tiny in comparison to yours. Thanks, Art

Lovely UN!

. . . special editions Omega's produced from the base Speedmaster. Countless since, but none more charming than yours. Thanks for sharing, Imran. Art

. . . for a silly reason, so don't feel guilty, Imran. We all make mistakes once in a while . . .

... I can only share here some favorite pictures without much pretention. These are pictures I like, taken to watches I love. Have a great week end Art and all friends! Cordial regards, Abel. ...  

. . . went out Friday night to discover a few new nightspots in LA, but home all day today and tomorrow; might wander out Sunday night if the pool-players at the seaside dive bar are amenable. Art

Really small, really fat but totally exciting. Best Doug ...

Hi Thanks, I think the two shots work more by luck than judgement. I must take the odd half decent photo, just based on the number that I take - I probably delete more than I keep. That though is the joy of digital photography - no waiting and lots of cha... 

Ghostly, almost - really well captured!

Fresh out of the water, Great weekend to all, Alex ...  

I´ve just replied. Thanks, Alex

HAGWE! fernando ...

Splendid pic!

Both of these won (if I remember correctly) in their categories the weeks I previously posted them. So, who I am to doubt their worthiness? Away: taken between dives in Belize Home below: taken from favorite armchair. ...

cheers nino ...  

Sorry, I am a bit late, Art, but I have been on duty the whole weekend. Here are my two contributions: 1. Rolex Red Sub I like this photo for the crystal clear display of the dial and the nice blurred flower blossom in the background which is its contrast...  

No message body

. . . that struck as exceptional (like the Dugena), but there was one recently of your Omega collection positioned next to an implement from ancient times. How much more fitting can an image of a watch (or watches) get than to be depicted next to a truly ...
