WristScan 21st of July starts now - Free Theme!
Friends, Here in Europe it is summer/vacation time... So, what could be better fitting than a Free Theme?! I will kick off with two vintage divers, Omega and Zenith. Different year's, different brand's... But still with a air de famille! HAGWE Blomman ...
Still having it!
Now in your home country. And very satiated after a nice Alsatian lunch π½ππ»
Let's play with a trio ...
Of Omega Olympic Official Timekeeper set: White gold Pink gold Yellow gold Feeling like Mr. Auric Goldfinger today. A wonderful weekend to all, Nilo ...
Those three are really lovely, Nilo
like the combination of blue hands and pink gold case, very nice.
Fine trio!
Something one does not see often in the real. Especially the white gold nicely conveys the link to sports timekeeping Warmest regards, Martin
Your Omega collection is impresive my dear friend Nilo (a.k.a. Goldfinger here!Lol!) This particular...
... model is so classic and charming!! Hagwe Nilo!! Abel
While all three are superb...
That pink gold negroni shot is somehow the most appealing to me
Your collection, Alain is full of treasures
always love your WS submissions, without exception. This FL Diver seems to have the same case as the GP Deep Diver 8867, I would bet it also houses the same movement, but FL branded as the Gyromatic was a joined development. CC
Beautiful vintage divers Alain!! Curious to observe the luminous "cross hairs" on dial! I feel...
... these is a very unique feature of this model! Very very nice! Hagwe! Abel
Ok, given the free topic and "summer holiday time" in our part of the world, I'll post .....
..... first my P15 under water, second my Sinn U2C under water. Cheers, HSTE ...
Great shots!
Just make sure you cannot take water shots after you left the pool ;-) Best, Martin
Excellent!
Like that the P15 is getting some proper testing. Unlike the Sinn it does not get made of submarine steel but is still sturdy enough for the use we are likely to subject it to ππ»
Yummi! One of my dream watches (=don't have it yet, would not mind having it). This one...
....is in spectacular condition! Cheers, HSTE
An inspiration for Mr. Kern? :)
This one is a gem from a different era Breitling ππ»
Holidays? Here we go...
Everything you need: blue sky, refreshing water (lakes and sea), sand, sun... A little bit of snow to cool off And wearing the sky π Best wishes Alkiro ...
All the photographs are quite spectacular.
But the first two seem to really capture the watch colors with perfect backgrounds.
Many thanks my friend
No Lange this week but I will make up for it next week π Best wishes Alkiro
Thanks a lot my friend
But there's a trap. If you really pay attention to all my shots, you'll find one crown down π Best wishes Alkiro
LOL yes π
I've to wear again my Breguet Tsar before going on holidays (only sporty watches for me during vacations). I love it so much. Best wishes Alkiro
Tough call.
As for the photos, always all incredible, but something about writing in the sand makes it my favorite. As for the watches, well, each is spectacular in its own. I couldn't pick one.
Many thanks my friend for your kind words
The Breguet shots were taken during a lovely and unexpected day with my son, wife and mother in law at the sea side. Sweet memories. Best wishes Alkiro
And those are the memories we cherish.
... made better with a nice photo ad a nice watch.
Wow dear Alkiro! Your collection and your taste is truly exquisite!! IΒ΄m specially fond of that...
... Breguet and the FP Journe timepieces! The shoot with the name Breguet on the sand... A winning shot for me!! Hagwe my dear friend! Abel
Always my pleasure my friend! And always...
... a pleasure to view such fantastic pieces! Cheers! Abel
Blomman, I am sensing that you are becoming bored with your two vintage beauties
I think it is time we trade my pair for your pair. (Ignore that HSTE guy.) ...
Some Surf and Turf...! ;)
That is a perfect match, her and his! Enjoy vacation, my friend! Best Blomman
You didn't show this post to your flesh and blood family, did you?!
Nice "metallic" family though.
Agree completely dear Damjan! Holidays are made...
... to be spent with our beloved ones! Great his/hers combo!! Hagwe! Abel
Wow, that is an outstanding pair. Or should I say couple?
So much one of a kind and at the same time quite different. Seems like couple is the right word here Best, my dear friend, Martin
Hmmhh.. Summer.. Free theme !.. Really sounds good.. Let me see how to play..
ABR on Costa Amalfitana No Rad FF & lakeside Summer tranquillity.. DSA Tribute EU.. Sublime summer joy Wishing all of you a great & sunny summer WE ! Best, hs ...
Great Summer shots my dear friend HS!!...
... all beautiful places! All beautiful timepieces! How not enjoy Summer with those beauties on the wrist as company? Hagwe! Abel
Another ABR ππ»
A great selection, HS111! All excellent choices - and pictures π
It' already IN the water!!!
From the first day I have it with me in my vessel in the Caribbean Sea π π π
Reverting to Type
I've always been drawn to typography. For me, typography is a very important part of the watch, and yet it is often overlooked. Here are a dozen fonts, from 12 different brands in my collection, in varying styles. (apologies if some of the pictures look g...
A very interesting topic!
Maybe something we should make as a WS theme in the future? Great collage, my friend! Agree - the typography is an important part of the watch! Best Blomman
I also love typography and a bad font can totally ruin a watch
something to explore in the HoMe site
Thanks guys! Glad to see I'm not alone in my typophile tendencies! :)
and yes Blomman it would make an interesting Wristscan topic for future - 'most interesting font you've had on a watch' !
Agreed why we always tease Mr Blue....we are such provocateurs ;)
and then he comes with vengeance
Ah that's an interesting sort of "open 9"
It's from Habring2's Erwin with the jumping seconds and the scientific dial; Magnus' pictures probably show the dial better than mine below. I like the 38.5mm case ...
Absolutely agree NT931! And your sample...
... well illustrates your point!! Hagwe! Abel
That's not a 12.
I'm thinking that's two people in a smoky lounge around 2AM after a lot of cocktails. Holding each other up. I could go on. I better not.
Important but overlooked ;) agree with you 100%
Thanks for bringing this up...that 4 looks sooo nice Cheers D
It seems that wooden beam is the new GP gang member background π
Lovely GP by the way. Best wishes Alkiro
No no, I cannot compete with the Swedish beam , which happens to be a
GP, Zenith, Omega, JLC................... beam
Lovely Damier!
Looks like everyone has a wooden beam to take pictures of their watches on these days
I'll join with a theme...
... called purity. This Hentschel H1 is a good example, I think: And it's nice on the wrist as well ;-) Have a great weekend everyone! Cheers Henrik ...
Your photos never fail to inspire.
The last one is especially cool, thanks for sharing it.
I'm sitting outside
I just finished my cigar and I'm admiring the Seiko design principles in the evening light. I just watched my girlfriend paint this, while wearing her Nomos Tangente: I had the honour of naming it, 'Abyss' which I think fits well. Have a good weekend! ...
Nice series of pictures.
And if I may be heretical, the middle one is most interesting. I like the name.
Thank you my friend
She loves art, at the moment it's a hobby/passion that might turn into an occupation. We'll see. She does lots of different stuff, that was an example of her experimenting. I like it though.
Urushi in the wild
Hi Shot of my Urushi dial Seiko out and about yesterday evening. Have to say think it looks great in the sun. HAGWE JML ...
Normally I do not wear this watch.
Not because I would not like it. In the contrary, I like it very much. But it simply is not mine but my wife's. After my P15 got moisture in I stopped wearing it and she offered me to wear hers. Most of the time she does not wear a watch in vacation and o...
I must say I have a lot of respect for this watch.
It may be Citizen and it may be Quartz, but it is a rock solid and well made tool watch that has performed its task as a diver with depth gauge and dive log flawlessly. And don't ask me why, but it is the only watch I know of so far where I would prefer t...
Don't worry, blomman!
Even if it is Quartz it is a thoroughbred diver that has proven itself 30m and more below the surface for more than once. A lot of bang for the buck if you ask me. And I even like the design quite a lot. Best, Martin
Hmmmm, that background...
Something familiar about it. I see you found a nice hiking place. If you need a loaner watch, you can have one tomorrow.
Dear Nikola, your generosity does not know any limits.
But as you will see I have not only a plan A, but also B and C. And I am afraid that my fear to hurt your watch would outshine the pleasure to wear it. See you soon, my friend, Martin
I think it is reasonable to assume that you will complete the 150k first.
Now that would be a challenge to impose onto Zenith Thank you and best, Martin
Deep diving?
Sad to hear your P15 got moisture in. Too deep a dive? Hope it gets sorted soon! And a very unique entry, too!
Just one watch entry from me. No wrist shots.
An homage to Paris. And not a wrist shot, more a 'hoof' shot: And a 'grappa and coffee' better known as Damjan' shot: And a wine shot: HAGWE, everyone. ...
After mistakenly creditig D for the original, I had to make amends. (and I made him change my post from last week to reflect that).
Your idea, my friend, and I am just a copycat. But, at that point, we were pretty far down the wine bottle and seemed like a great idea.
Ahhhjjjj!! That Devilish image!! ...
... I'm making cross with my fingers each time I view it!! Lol!!
That is a very high goal for my photography skills.
Maybe just something blurry and out of focus could be the signature shot.
Wow Zabreg!! First shot made me remember...
...certain Parisian Vladesque character I know well! Though he prefers a 6542 on his hoof! A Devilish shot!! Hagwe! Abel
Three shots telling one story of an obviously superb trip.
Especially love be the second one. And Croatian wine rocks! See you soon, Martin
If only that meant what I would love it to mean ...
But I fear it means Croatian breakfast buffet :-O Seen in Zagreb earlier this year. ...
Hahaha. Damjan was just arriving for breakfast.
The photo was taken a few minutes before.
All good.
The wine shot most definitely appeals to me; especially with the wine all gone.
Brilliant!
Now we have two of these hoof shots in circulation Looks like it was a great weekend!
Lovely diving watches on your beam shot dear friend Blomman!...
... as you know we are entering Winter Season down here so we are far from the sunny warm beach days! Anyway I searched my HD for some summer day shots to play in this week end WS ddition! Hagwe dear Friend Blomman and all our dear friends here! Abel ...
Ha ha ha!! Yes my dear Nicolas... Actualy, I found...
... two specimens about a year ago. Curiously I found both of them with a difference of a couple of weeks between them, after several years of hunting for one. They are absolutely super rare down here! I show you below the second one, not in such a good s...

I always had a weak spot for the orange Doxa.
And the UG isn't bad either. Nice photos.
Thank you my friend! The classic Sea Dweller is...
... a great travel companion! Hagwe! Abel
I was just about to say...
That your winter looks quite appealing, Abel! The shots and watches certainly are more than just appealing
Thank you KM! Appreciate your kind comments!...
... regret to say it is cold now. These are shots of ladt holidays in Florida, USA!! I miss the beach and sea!! Hagwe my friend!! Abel
Moon landing week anniversary.. gotta be a speedmaster today for me today
The moon watch ref ST105-012 checking in. HAGWE all! -- Seeks ps i never tired looking at these two awesome condition sea masters of yours , dear blomman ! ...
Have a great weekend guys!
I put on my Kari today and found it looked great with my new passport cover.... I couldn't resist a quick picture. Nothing like co-ordination! Have a great weekend everyone! Cheers Andrew ...
On the way to my friend's wedding today....
Still confused matching.... ... my batiks to my strap haha HAGWE everyone! Best Jev ...
My 2017 summer watch
Can't seem to get it of my wrist the last 2 weeks (short exemption here and there)... ...
Have to say that I like them both equally.
The olive green ZULU and the mustard yellow Hirsch really fit the orange dial. Hopefully the original buckle will fit the Hirsch strap.
Great combination...
But that pink strap... On a more serious note, this works wonderfully ππ»
π
The pink NATO works on the P15. It's probably the only watch it will work on btw. Would it be my first choice....no. But I'll put it on the Zenith again. Sometime soon.
The appropriate watch for lift-off :)
And the magnetic resistance will help when flying over the Earth's poles, too!
I guess I'll need to add this as well....
I saw something wild.... In it's natural habitat! HAGWE! Best Jev ...
Here, no....
But I got your PM on my gmail though.... And I've replied it yesterday noon GMT +7... Did you received my reply yet? Thanks Best Jev PS : PM me your email account perhaps I'll send my verdict there.... Seems there's a trouble on the PM system in this webs...
Sorry, I didnt receive your email.
So I asked Mike to take on the task. Sorry. You will get your chance to judge next time, my friend! Best Blomman
How could I forget . . .
. . . to participate in Wrist Scan?! [Gf's '49 Ξ© 28.10 RA on the left, my Seiko 6602 on the right, freshly made peach sorbet in the blurry background] ...
