With the solid spring bars for the rough and the RD for the relaxed moments being my favorite shots 👍🏻👏🏻👌🏻

I’m enjoying switching watches this weekend 🥂

You look chilled and relaxed out for your walk. I love the watch and gloves 👍 Is that one of the the original straps ?

Light and shade with your Lange look stunning.

And a lovely strap pairing, too 👌🏻👏🏻👍🏻

Team, I just looked through some pics of relaxing moments, to get some inspiration for the weekend.. Relaxed evening in the theatre with JLC 1901 yesterday UG crosshair with an easy afternoon café stop Omega Seamaster, passed on to me as a heirloom from m...  

Fabulous 6610 Explorer gilt !… and your Omega Seamaster, passed on from your father-in-law is a special watch. Have a relaxing weekend 🥂

Can you tell us more about your favourite t-shirt ?

1st one is a Late Night with David Letterman t-shirt a girl gave me in university nearly 30 years ago, before Letterman switched networks/shows. The second one is a Joy Division ‘Unknown Pleasures’ t shirt, the best post punk album of all time 🍻

Are you still with the girl ??? As for Joy Division I completely agree, I have many of the albums on vinyl.

. . . on the strength of the album cover. I had no idea who they were, but the record store owner filled me in. Curiously enough, there's another album I bought due to the draw of the cover. I didn't realize the late-night FM classic White Bird . . . . . ...  

. . . playing Grateful Dead concert outtakes. When Mama Tried came on, I thought to myself, "That sounds better than Merle Haggard on acid!"

Well what can I say, students never get a day off, so to chill me down and relax me extra I present the Omega Prebond and my chill Rotting 600 (makes me relax by not having any hand pain lol ). My Prebond has the most comfortable bracelet I've eve had on ...  

Can you tell us anything more about how you came to have this very cool Omega ?

Thank you Cpt Scarlet not too interesting a dealer I know was selling and was like "do you have this piece" hehe and voila. I really should wear it more as it hasn't been in the rotation as often.

. . . on campus!

Oh ya I get a lot of wrist campus hehe

Autocorrect made a little trick though, changing Rotring for Rotting 😉

I don't think I can edit it now but aye spell check gets me every time hahaha

Hi Hans, That’s a good looking pilot watch. Have you tried it with a NATO strap ?

Great shots you posted and somehow a Flieger is a fitting choice 👌🏻🙌🏻

Which brand is it? Best Thomas

So here is my Friday night submission! Still have my “office watch” but the girls decided I was cooking tonight! This is always dangerous as my idea of cooking can often be Cheese macaroni! I did an extra effort but of course no where near some of our fel...  

The food looks good as does your photos. I see the Grand Seiko is still a favourite. Any news on your new straps ?

And a great side of GS, too 👌🏻👍🏻

Your dog (what’s his/her name?) doesn’t look chilled. Perhaps he/she is waiting for your food? Regarding “loosing control”. Karl Lagerfeld once meant: only when you go out on the street in your tracksuit you have lost the control of your life. 😎 ...

Nice Grand Seiko 👍

Enjoy 👍

Need to be careful about so many watches out at once, with kids playing around 😂🤷🏻‍♂️

. . . and planning on a wrist shot of of my Genève with grey hair in the background, but then I got a call from my watchmaker. So off I went. Notice the blurred movement? One of my latest acquisitions, which will be serviced in the coming months. Omega-ph...  

I see you are having a vintage relaxed weekend.

And when did your hair turn grey? Or is that to match your GS dial posted last weekend? 😉

. . . I jump! He wanted me to choose between three different crowns he'd selected for one of my Omegas; I figured the haircut could wait. And yes, the main reason for getting the GS was to match my hairdo.

The hoodie is a Christmas gift from the family and I am wearing it for the first time today - looking forward to a very relaxed weekend. Everyone HAGWE! ...  

Your Octo is looking very good. Are you enjoying it ?

There is only one problem which is the GMT button is easy to get pushed by accident. The good thing is when it happens, it is easy to correct too, just pushing it some more .

He is called a King, thus the crown in the graphic design.

...  

The Speedmaster is a great choice for the weekend. I like the look of your jacket cuff with it. Is it a pilot style jacket ?

The cuff is from the Irvin flying jacket which always helps me relax during cold travels. 11 months of the year it is usually kept in storage! ...  

It’s a great jacket.

Enter text ...  

One for my list 😉

I think you’ll like it. A very fair price for Metas inhouse column wheel with vertical clutch. 44mm diam, 17 mm thick but it wears the heft well. Here it is on the Omega rubber strap ...  

You can tell I'm relaxed by the elevated bare foot! ...  

if these suckers leak or explode.... ...  

Krusty Brand !! … I love it ! Thanks for joining us this weekend.

Have a restful weekend everyone! ...  

That’s a great shot 👍 Well played SF !

. . . but after plugging in 'Antinori Toscana' to Google search, I fully understand what a chill Friday evening you had.

Am no wine expert too…When I find something suits my palate, will tend to stick with it for a while.

Nice choice 👍

What more do we really need ;-)) ...  

The lume combined with the jacket…. Gorgeous. Best Thomas

It worked out unexpectedly that way 😊 Cheers, V

I dressed it down on a calf strap. Enjoying a great coffee. ...  

That Patek looks superb Christian. I didn’t know that you had this one. It’s very cool.

Like the power reserve hand which is quite different from others! I still love the colour of the seconds hand!

Started Saturday with the BB but the explorer was calling me! 😎 ...  

Superb Rolex and I particularly like the black dial version as it remains true to the original concept. -25, that’s seriously chilly 🥶

Doing lots of nothing Cheers JML ...  

Those are some seriously good shots for WristScan this weekend. Well played my friend 👏👏👏

Happy weekend everyone. ...  

I like the music.

The weekend will be anything but, with both days working ones, let’s see what I can do 😉 ...  

I always love to see your Amida, definitely a watch that I would go for at the weekend. It looks in excellent condition.

Best,

Phew, hot day and I got a good tan as a side effect. ...  

That’s definitely multitasking at the weekend. Cool Tudor 😎

Playing Exit and experimenting hypnosis with a balance wheel! Some people do but I don't relax with the watch tick tick... ...  

Good to see a pocket watch being enjoyed. Thanks for joining us.

…before I drank it! Cheers everyone. Have a great week! 👊 ...  

….you’re right! Only joking, appreciate the comment! 😎👊

That’s my kind of relaxed weekend 🍻 Good photos !

cheers 🍻 👊

This Austrian brand has a lot to offer. A very charming piece you have on your wrist!

This is not an easy task for me, as the range of my watches, which I also like to wear at the weekend, is very large. So I'm trying to limit myself. 1. I'll start with my newest acquisition, which certainly doesn't seem "typical" and might be seen as rath...  

with big personality! Worn with aplomb! 👏👌

Superb selection of watches and photos. I completely agree with you about the Zenith Pilot as I have had this one from when it was first released… ...  

...  

I have never seen a watch like this from Cartier. Gorgeous and marvelous! Best Thomas

Please tell us more 🙏

Thank you for sharing it with us on WristScan.

Thanks to everyone that made the time to join in this weekend at WristScan 🍻 ...  

...  

. . . sipping ale and bourbon cocktails. That's what I call a relaxing way to spend a day! 🍸🍺 ...  

. . . than you do.

. . . be prouder! 😇

. . . with a macro lens. Acquired almost a year ago; didn't take it to a watchmaker until October, returned in December, and on my wrist yesterday for the first time. ...  

. . . and Miki J is a former owner of an 1894. They're in the mid to high four-figure range. As The Count memorably said, "Who needs a Lange when . . . . . . you can have this?" ...  

. . . just like Nicolas!

I have a feeling that you had a hand in this 😉

. . . maybe ;-) . . .

My first 911 was a 2.4 many years ago and look what happened to my watch addiction ;-))

but never out of the count . It is, after all, still the weekend. One of my 'beaters' that I love as much as any other timepiece - quartz Casio with a retail value of less than $100.... ...  

Never to late for our relaxed theme ;-)
