Wristscan for week #37 is starting now!

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-07:53
Dear Purists, here goes my wristscan premiere - and as announced earlier this week, the theme is 'free'. Looking forward to a raft of interesting pieces, in places and situations of your choosing (food is optional but not to be discouraged). If you would ...  

Superb photo of this popular watch.

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 14th, 2017-07:56
But your photo seems to be missing something.

Raw meat? ;)

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-08:01
Thanks Padj! Looking forward to yours, fully heat treated

Something like that. [nt]

Two watches I haven't worn, or posted, for some time.

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 14th, 2017-08:03
With food, as KM requested. Also with food, as KM requested. ...  

Do I not recognise both from Zagreb?

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-08:45
Wonderful shots, Padj! And I have to say that the Foudroyante looks almost WG in some pictures - interestingly done As for food - maybe I will regret my own gentle hints - especially since there is no more food scheduled for today (and since I anticipate ... 

Thank you, my friend.

The 1815 did not accompany me on my world tour in June. It's actually been in hiding since February.

My eyesight must be failing me...

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-12:08
Or is it my memory?

One or the other is workable.

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 14th, 2017-12:15
Both would be disabling. Choose.

Well, I guess...

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-12:28
I prefer a fully working brain if I must choose. But best to keep both

I think you chose wisely.

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 14th, 2017-12:54
There are glasses for the eyes but none for the brain! But yes, better to keep them both.

So let's make sure...

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-21:41
We drink grappa and not the industrial cleaner we got sample last time in Zagreb, so as to protect both brain and eyesight

That's what that was?!

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 15th, 2017-05:53
Explains a lot.

Shutting down the factory for the day, K? May I torture you . . .

Wonderful!

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-12:11
As I will not lose weight as suddenly as my wife soon will, I need to prepare more thoroughly - i.e. by skipping dinner. Not easy but helpful, especially as it means I eat lunch each day now Your late breakfast does look truly delicious, though. As does t... 

I see a constellation of delicious foods...

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 14th, 2017-12:17
or at least potatos and watch.

Gotta love Connies! . . .

. . . as we say in 3-ball about aces, "Tough to tie . . . . . . impossible to beat."

Well put :)

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-13:58
One day...

Thank you, Henrik!

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 14th, 2017-09:37
It is definitely a cool GP!

Danke, Freund! [nt]

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 14th, 2017-09:38

Very nice.

 
 By: zabreg1 Mr White : September 14th, 2017-11:20
A welcome change.

That's the Zagreb GTG you sadly could not make...

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-12:13
But luckily there is always a next time

Damn it, I am so pissed I wasn't there. [nt]

 
 By: zabreg1 Mr White : September 14th, 2017-12:50

As said...

We shall definitely find the opportunity for a rerun

Thanks, Z! [nt]

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 14th, 2017-12:52

Thanks, Georges.

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 14th, 2017-12:55
The flying saucer has been getting a lot of wrist action so it was time to break out something else.

Two great watches 👌🏻 think i have a small pref for the AL&S . Just a nice clean watch .

 
 By: Watchonthewrists : September 14th, 2017-12:11
Love the pics with the Wrist,candy, 😉

Haha! Thanks! [nt]

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 14th, 2017-12:56

Both watches are magic

Enjoy them with good health

Many thanks, RG1! [nt]

Big congrats!

Hehe the EoT. Splendid 👍😉

Best wishes Alkiro

Brilliant!

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-08:46
Is your EoT brand new, or what Nico likes to call a 'crocodile watch' - i.e. a piece you have had for a while but hidden away from prying eyes? At any rate a very nice one it is and a great choice! Thanks

OK - so the 'regular' crocs then!

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-08:52
In which case, congratulations on a fabulous new acquisition!

I am glad that it worked out for you :)

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-12:14
It's a very interesting watch by all means - hope to see it at some point soon

WOW! Very very ... very nice 😋 [nt]

Congratulations and wear it in great health.

I definitely will 👌🏻 thanks [nt]

Nice GP :-)

No message body

I just corrected that 😉

A wrong cut and past. I had to pay my watchmaker for a service. Best wishes Alkiro

You did well 😉

Well...

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-08:49
You do have two wrists after all, so sacrificing one for that watch is a price worth paying, no?

Handbag? ;) [nt]

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-08:56

Fully?

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-09:10
Or do you like believing that Only joking, of course

Great photos, Henrik.

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 14th, 2017-08:31
The first two were to be expected, i guess, but this last one is crazy! The watch just jumps out of the computer screen!

Thanks for playing, Henrik!

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-08:48
I suppose the second one will be a matter of days (or I hope so for you) and the other two are close behind? Great and very diverse trio you have shown

Absolutely - diversity is the spice of life...

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-09:00
Or something of the sort

Thanks, mate! [nt]

And of course the rest of your pics as always.

Thanks a lot 😊 [nt]

That Hentschel is a beautiful watch 👌🏻😘

'The GP is strong with this Wristscan'

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-08:50
A wonderful 1945 - so romantic and easily compensating for the somewhat reduced legibility with its sensual appeal. Great choice, Brauner! And food, too - well done

GP Mafia is always strong. [nt]

 
 By: zabreg1 Mr White : September 14th, 2017-11:23

Nice shot of a highly desirable piece.

Cool shot!

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-08:54
And your text reminded me of one of my favourite sayings of my daughter these days (from Bubble Guppies) about the Secret of the Sphinx. What is the secret of the sphinx then? Nobody knows. I guess it can only be cute and fun if a three year old does this... 

And what else than an Explorer to go somewhere? 😉

Of two watches I truly like. While we already share an ABR, I still need to get the MIH at some point 👍🏻 Have a great weekend!

That's exactly what has been drawing me towards the MIH :)

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-14:00
I definitely like my watches under the radar...

The MIH looks wonderful

Having just had lunch I am immune to your foodie shots. But I bet it won't just be Z who's drooling at this point.

I think it's the best choice but I'm a little bit biased 😁

KMII, First of all, congratulations for your first WristScan as Moderator. A watch that I seldom wear: JLC Master Compressor GMY Chronograph Ceramic: Big but nice on the wrist: A wonderful weekend to all. Cheers, Nilo ...

The DeBethune The Urwerk My one off Staudt ( a new small dutch company ) ...  

That's a spectacular effort!

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-14:05
Not only are the watches exquisite but you managed to pair each one with food, too 👌🏻👍🏻 Would be interested to learn more about the Staudt - seen it on IG but not much more. As for your DB - got some nice memories of that one 😊 Thanks for that 'different'... 

Now I'm hungry with these Pavlova and burgers 🤤

 
 By: Alkiro1 : September 14th, 2017-14:08
And what about your timepieces. So so cool! This Staudt is impressive 😳 First time I see one 👍 What an entry my friend. Hats off to you! Best wishes Alkiro

Thank you my friend 🤗

 
 By: Watchonthewrists : September 14th, 2017-14:22
I needed to do something ,,extra,,because you raise the bar so high for all other participants 😉 . Staudt is just a nice small company from holland with a Very kind and driven owner Ivo Staudt .

Had to investigate Staudt . . .

 
 By: Dr No : September 14th, 2017-14:16
. . . after seeing your post. I'd never heard of them before. Very much to my liking; movement finishing is reminiscent of the Hamilton 921 movement . . . . . . in my long-departed RGM. Art ...  

Indeed its similar 👌🏻 [nt]

 
 By: Watchonthewrists : September 14th, 2017-14:47

Another one you have not shared for a while, Art!

 
 By: KMII : September 14th, 2017-21:46
IIRC it was the dial you disliked on your RGM?

Difficult to dissect the reasons eight years on, K, but basically . . .

 
 By: Dr No : September 15th, 2017-08:24
. . . it boiled down to my perception of its case design . . . a little more angularity and matte surfacing, and it probably would've passed muster. The movement view was the whole shebang; the rest, uninspiring. Funny thing is, it's roughly the same dime... 

Thanks for clarifying, Art :)

 
 By: KMII : September 15th, 2017-08:29
I did vaguely remember something of the sort. I hope there is no such experience with your current Railmaster

As Brits would say . . .

 
 By: Dr No : September 16th, 2017-00:57
. . . "not bloody likely".

Still have 'em, Nicolas! . . .

 
 By: Dr No : September 16th, 2017-01:02
. . . and yes, the dial isn't exactly mesmerizing. This one's all about the rear view. Not just the movement , which I find delectable, but also the way it's packed into the case with not a millimeter to spare. Art ...  

So close, though...

 
 By: KMII : September 16th, 2017-01:14
Just does not fully gel in practice. Wearing it Reverso style might help, though

All very cool.

 
 By: TheMadDruid : September 15th, 2017-05:56
Especially the Staudt. This is nice find.

Thanks 🤗 [nt]
