WRISTSCAN January 24 Theme announcement.

Jan 23, 2019,07:23 AM
 

A recent not so much fun experience got me thinking: I want to hear the most interesting watch acquisition story.
 
It can be anything: a long and difficult hunt for that rare piece, a spur of the moment buy that ended up just right, anything related to the process, good or bad. Scary or fun.

For last year, my most difficult purchase was the LGF. I had first resisted the idea of a Rolex, and than I had to find one, which is far from easy.


I know I have heard some incredible stories, so I really look forward to reading these. Anything goes, but please limit to 2 photos so our judges don’t collapse.

I may have to dig out a story where someone smuggled a watch for me out of Russia...

Ummm... who is this?

 
 By: zabreg1 Mr White : January 23rd, 2019-10:40
I don't know you. Prank caller, prank caller.

Lol!! [nt]

I have the same story

 
 By: Jocke - Bad Santa : January 23rd, 2019-12:16
but I guess it maybe not is a good idea. Oh wait, it was not me that come with it from Russia, I've got it in Europe so technically I'm good to go.

Technically?

 
 By: zabreg1 Mr White : January 23rd, 2019-20:34
On the particular story probably yes. Overall, probably no. This should be interesting.

Great Theme dear friend Zabreg!! I´m sure we will read and view many great stories this week end as I feel that every watch lover/collector has accumulated several...

 
 By: Subexplorer : January 23rd, 2019-10:41
... interesting experiences around the hunting and catching of pieces for their collections. I will think in one to fill the limit of two pictures! (That will be the hardest part for me! Lol!) Cheers! Abel

I look forward to reading the stories.

As you said, we have all accumulated many over the years. But always interesting to hear why someone pick a particular story.

Interesting theme!

Looking forward to read what stories will be here! Best Blomman

That‘s a great idea 👍🏻

 
 By: JLCman : January 24th, 2019-00:09
And it won‘t be easy to decide which story will be the most fascinating. Not for myself and not for the judges 😉

Hehehe. Exactly the point.
