Hello Kkochheiser: you may participate with time only watches if they have a date feature. Date counts as a complication. If you wish to participate with your Cartier or Bulgari...

This is an interesting subject Abel, as asking a collector to come up with a list of favourites gives me some very difficult decisions;-)) ... My Zenith Equation Of Time always fascinated me... Chronographs will always play a big part in my collection.. E...
Thank you dear Abel..

Your Chronograph photos are superb! Thank you for being our host this weekend. Kind regards to Mrs Subexplorer and your family 🥂
on you for your kind message...

I have had the Zenith for some years now and it seldom comes out to play. The Goodyear is interesting and the “Blimp” seconds is great fun.
It’s good to dream ...
By: Cpt Scarlet : April 10th, 2020-07:39
Especially when it involves these beautiful watches. Which model would you choose ?

Time only watches make up the backbone of my collection, but I would regard the ultra thin Cartiers and the Bulgari Octo Finissimo that I know we both have in our collections as being a special complication in their own right. I may add some photos to thi...

Dear Seeks ,

The last watch is a NHC Vincent Calabrese . A great and very cool watch from a great watchmaker
Thanks my friend 🤗
By: Watchonthewrists : April 11th, 2020-10:10
I dont buy them because of the complications. Just because i think they are cool and great looking 😉
A very simple complication in a watch. Very very humble complication.
By: jvr1sta : April 10th, 2020-09:24
This week got very interesting wristscan topic! But I think I will have to go to the simplest complication (and added bonuses). We've come so far that we have forgotten this complication because nowadays its presence is always there only to serve the owne...
Cool one, Abel!
By: jvr1sta : April 11th, 2020-02:38
I would love to see your Connie! Hehe. But man, your Longines Chronograph though! Would you customize it by making a transparent caseback for it?
Ah yes, I forgot to include hardwood as well

As the father of bumper automatic watches in a wristwatch. He granted his patent by UK around 1923 in his pocket watch prototype then proceed to ask fortis to make it manufactured en masse in the 1926 and introduced it in the baselworld 1926. The Léon Hat...

I haven’t seen this piece posted for ages. I like the design and it looks great in your wrist shot.
Fantastic post!
By: KMII : April 11th, 2020-08:58
And you’re right - no one is talking about automatic anymore 👍🏻
Right?
By: jvr1sta : April 11th, 2020-12:15
But tourbillon, while it's not a complication, it's still highly regarded as a complication as well. Idk, perhaps when we see the day tourbillon become the standard escapement like automatic, its complication status would be obsolete as well I guess. Anyw...
I like the Apnea
By: VinnieD : April 12th, 2020-00:49
Quirky complication and unusual watch!
Oh, many thanks dear George!
By: Seeks : April 11th, 2020-09:06
I remember you posting photos of your Mono Poussoir with its warm RG case ! Really stunning. I bought the WG because I chance upon the WG version first. Pure randomness The RG is equally delicious. Stay health and be well my friend.
Fantastic entry as always, Abel!
By: KMII : April 10th, 2020-09:54
With many delectable pieces! So for me it’s deadbeat seconds (even better if paired with a foudroyante): Don’t mind the odd alarm... And have been a lifelong fan of chronographs... Have a great weekend and stay healthy! ...
Hi KMII...
By: Cpt Scarlet : April 10th, 2020-11:20
I always enjoy seeing your Habring2 and the Seiko but this time I’m drawn to your Chopard, elegant and purposeful. Best wishes to you and your family. Have a great weekend.
+1!
By: jvr1sta : April 11th, 2020-12:09
I also love that Chopard! Perhaps... Someday...
+1 great looking alarm
By: jml_watches : April 11th, 2020-01:50
Also has rather nice gold medallion on case back.
They certainly are!
By: KMII : April 11th, 2020-09:21
Long time since I have seen this Zenith 👌🏻
A ring, buzz or chime of alarms
By: jml_watches : April 10th, 2020-13:54
Hi I do have watches with other complications & indeed none - but my favourite is an alarm. Posted recently a daily email for over a week & I'm still interested in more. A very particular rabbit hole to disappear down. I think you get the idea! Cheers JML...
It was great fun

Great clean watch. I love mine around the pool or at the gym.
Nice Omega...

Good to see it on WristScan. Keep well !
Thx Elliot.

Had this for 14 years. It received a spa treatment at Omega few years ago. Cheers

This watch always looks beautiful as does the movement in your Duometre. Have a great weekend.

The only complication that holds attraction for me . . .

Basically, a torque indicator displays the pulse of the mainspring . . .
By: Dr No : April 11th, 2020-16:10
. . . so that the person wearing the watch can maintain the movement in its sweet spot, winding when it's low, and allowing it to 'settle' when it's high. The Daniel Roth chronograph pictured has a torque indicator sectioned off by colors. The white porti...

By: VinnieD : April 12th, 2020-00:55
Chronographs are the complication that caught my interest most younger but I tend to be more drawn to simple 2-3 handers these days. During lockdown, I decided to go with a very complicated quartz watch to help me pace my days with alarm, chrono and speci...
