Monumental landmarks
… or “Where's Wally Now?”
The idea behind this thread is to see your watches against recognizable landmarks. Let’s see how much of the world we can cover!
Here’s an easy one to start you off. Where am I?
Sydney?
This is going to be a great thread. Unfortunately I have not got any wrist shots with monumental landmarks yet. Would definitely take more of them in the future. This message has been edited by Luis6 on 2014-03-02 03:19:48
Quite right, the Sydney Harbour Bridge
Also known as The Coathanger because of its arch design. It was completed in 1932 and was, at the time, the largest (and tallest) spanning arch bridge in the world. Along with the Opera House it is a focal point of Sydney harbour in Australia.

You're NOT in Roma.
Fantastic city I would like to visit
PS : if you are in Arles, I'll hide myself.

If that isn't Rome...
I'll eat my hat. (Let's pretend I have a hat!)
This could be fun....I'll try to contribute over the next few days. Got a trip to a new city (for me) next week...
Oh and that first one...that bridge...those palm trees...the stunning environs...must be Newcastle! 
Well, Andrew .. Can be a nifty task .. I'll convey 3 pics; after each it should get easier
.. so here is the little 3-step riddle :
- although I'm pretty convinced , at the 3rd
everyone will know...
Alas: here we go ..
Sure you recognized that quickly-
- too easy ??
Hope you had some fun - I did ..
Thanks, Andrew for the theme
- my Best, hs
- although I'm pretty convinced , at the 3rd

Alas: here we go ..
1st: A very famous fountain .. You'll always come back , if you through in some pennies
2nd: The face of a Pagan god.. With a special spell
You should already know: THAT is a great building.. And the DSA, I love !

Actually I am a little nervous now ...
Thanks Mike,
Actually I'm a little nervous now. I thought the photos would come flooding in - but perhaps there are only a couple of us watch loonies that take photos of their watches in front of the world's important landmarks.
I don't need that degree of self insight!

Hello !
Great theme. I believe this could turn out to become a MEGATHREAD !
Greetings from Shanghai !

Fernando,
Was that shot taken from 'The Patio' on the 4th floor of Harbour City, by any chance?

Awww c'mon, that's too easy!...
Awww c'mon, that's too easy! Rue Soufflot just outside Le Comptoir du Pantheon, Paris.
I'm waiting for the shots from Machu Picchu...
:-)
A couple for the mix...
The wrist in the second shot belongs to a noted Purist - any guesses? (Andrew, you were there so you're disqualified!). For full marks - how many bridges in the second shot?
Cheers,
pplater.
No idea the wrist, but I spy three bridges!
Great pic that second one. Very good!
Cheers,
Tim

Difficult to see the dial...
Are there two different bridges depicted on that Corum Golden Bridge???
If so, then I get to four bridges.
I believe this photo is taken from the Opera House? At least that makes sense from what I can determine from google maps
Cheers,
Tim

Second time lucky!...
As you say, the fourth bridge is the 'Golden Bridge'. The wrist, by the way, is Thomas M's.
