Our July event "The Special One" is closed. Our Judges are working very hard with their veredicts...
Hello dear friends:
Our July event is closed now. I wish to thank all participants for their interesting and great answers to our Theme.
We knew that it was so difficult to choose just one Special Watch and even to choose three as a maximun.
Now our Judges will go through some difficult task to choose the winners of each category among so many awesome watches and photographs submitted.
Our judges are:
Honorable Captain Scarlet for Best Wrist Shot Category
Honorable KMII for Best Static Shot
Honorable Dr. No (Art) for the special category "Best Classic Watch"
I will judge Best Watch of the Month category among all watches submited during the weekend.
The judges will be posting at their convenience as per their different time zones and personal engagements so we expect some veredicts to arrive tomorrow Monday.
Judges please post your veredicts in this same thread.
I hope everybody enjoyed participating as much as me being your host.
I wish you all a nice and safe week ahead.
Cheers! Abel

Hello dear friends! Here my veredict for Best Watch of the Month.
We have received a great response to our Theme "The Special One” making so difficult to choose a winner in any category. As I kept reading every submission received for this event I felt that in order to award The Best Watch category the motives and stori...
Thank you Abel!
I don't envy you having to make choices here! Watches with a story are extra special, and I loved seeing everybody's entries. A bit of back story on my Reverso Chronographe Retrograde: the reference dates from the year my daughter was conceived (not born)...

I read over Art's "Original Pantry" and very fascinated by the story. Each piece does convey a sense of time.
Thank you!

Static shots this week
Dear Abel, first of all thanks for the well chosen theme and for being an immaculate host as always. So here go the verdicts for static: In third comes Spangles, with the special Eichi II on his sweet potato (plus some other ingredients) special watch pro...
Hello dear friend KM! Thanks a lot for your kind words about my hosting and Theme and for your valuable help with judging Static. Great veredict awarding these great Static shots.
It´s true that most entries brought wrist shots but the few static received are wonderful for sure always making difficult to choose. Big congrats to winners TeutonicCarFan (What a chrono!!) and to Captain Scarlet (he shared a real rare variant of our bel...

Thanks so much, Captain!
Perhaps humans will someday evolve longer wrists, allowing for regular wear of multiple watches. ;-)

The classic field wasn't broad this month . . .
. . . but man, was it ever deep! Not one but two spectacular Speedies, Abel's . . . . . . and Cap's desirable CB-case 145.012. Dr No approves highly of both. jml's JLC . . . . . . has long been one of No's favored vintage pieces on account of its futuris...
