WristScan - Now Live !
Hello dear friends !
We are now live for WristScan and our theme is all about “August Vibes” and in particular the watches that you have enjoyed this month. Think of it as a retrospective !
Some watches just seem perfectly suited to different times of the year, paired with a different style of clothing and a change in the pace in life during the month of August.
Share a few photos with us and tell us about your choice of watch, clothing and lifestyle during August.
Don’t forget WristScan has an element of friendly competition and fun. Your photos will be judged in three categories, Best Wrist Shot, Best Static Shot and finally Watch Of The Week. The results will be announced on Sunday evening.
Hope you can join in !
Best regards

August was a very warm & humid month here in the tropics
So fewer watches on straps, and it's on to watches on bracelets...
And time spent cooling off in airconditioned cafes with a hojicha latte, reading books about horology. Dr Struthers' book is a very enjoyable read! Highly recommended.
Welcome dear NT …
I have a particular love for your Tudor and finding them in this condition isn’t easy these days. Give me a nice chronograph with an aluminium bezel any day !
How long have you had this one ?

Thank you! I've had it for 18 months...
... bought it from a Tudor fan, full set. He was such a fan that he named his son 'Tudor' !!
Great Tudor Big Block you share here dear NT! Not usual to see it with a Jubilee which adds a beautiful different looks to it.
I was lucky to find one in almost NOS condition early this year. A superb watch.
I have ordered a copy of Dr. Struthers´s book but haven´t received it yet. Promises to be very interesting and you confirm that.
Have a nice weekend! Best, Abel

Love all 3 Capn !
But the Dumoreau is really exciting . I recently got an email saying they are down to the last 8 pieces of the Salmon version you have and am thinking of biting - how has your experience with it been if I may ask ?
I believe another blue dial version was nominated at GHPG this year as well !

Hi Watchnut …
My experience with Dumoreau has been excellent and I would hesitate to recommend one. I have been considering adding the blue version…. I still like the salmon version 🤔
Thanks Capn
I’ll probably go for the Salmon . And look forward to seeing your upcoming blue version soon 😊
The main August characters were the Tissot Sideral and the Mc2 Saint Barth swimsuits.
Happy end of summer to everyone.
Hello aWtchslvr …
Good see you enjoying your Tissot in a wonderfully relaxed setting. Perfect colour pairing 👏👏👏
Is this a new watch for your collection ?
Is this a new watch for your collection ?
Yes. I bought it a couple of months ago. Since then, always on my wrist (with some short rotation). Great weekend.
It certainly looks a perfect companion for beach life
May I ask where the idyllic beach shot was taken ?
Thank you for joining us this weekend.

A great colorful Sumer watch that Tissot! Perfect choice aWtchskvr! Love your swimsuits as well. Stunning shots. Hagwe, Abel
🙏🏼🙏🏼. The truth is that he ratio fun/price with this watch is being very high. Thanks for looking.
Lots of white shirts and ties
During August I have had the pleasure of many work days with white shirt - tie - suit

Very cool Hans ! …
Your Omega Dynamic is a superb vintage piece and very stylish. I would love to own one ! Do you wear it often ?
Not often enough
Probably only second time in 2023… who said top many watches…!
I also have this one I use a little more often
The Dynamic sit so nicely on the wrist

Two lovely Dynamic watches Hans! I specially like them fitted with these "Oyster" style steel bracelets as most often they are fund with leather or isofrane straps. These bracelets look wonderful.
Keep enjoying and loving them so much Hans!
