Welcome to this weeks WristScan friends ! This week I’m honoured to be hosting our favourite event of the week, so let’s make it a great one. This weeks theme is “Good Times”. I have chosen this theme as many of you will already know that I have a love of...  

(Chorus) Aaahh Freak out! Le Freak, c'est Chic Freak out! Aaahh Freak out! Le Freak, c'est Chic Freak out! Aaahh Freak out! Le Freak, c'est Chic Freak out! Aaahh Freak out! Le Freak, c'est Chic Freak out! What says good times more than any disco track by ...  

I assume that you had a “Good Time” when you purchased The Freak, can you tell us how you celebrated (for extra points).

. . . this was coming.

Hagwe! Abel

The Freak will always be special to me as it’s the watch that brought me back to this hobby. I went through several years where I’d become disillusioned with watch collecting, the prices had climbed so high everything I yearned for was the price of a very... 

... this up and downs in our enthusiasm for our hobby is something everyone suffers sooner or later and the reasons you tell are shared by me too. It is a great thing this wonderful timepiece brought you back to the enjoyment of watches! have a great week... 

Wonderful creativity from UN 👌🏻

. . . the good times . . . Who needs the original when you've got the Stones? . . . roll! On my wrist last night at Sunset Beach: a vintage Omega . . . . . . ever so slightly older than yours truly. And, needless to say, in better shape. ;-) ...  

Dr, your certainly doing that !.... As a Stones fan myself your racking up the points this week. Superb Omega and a beautiful location and good music, your living the dream.

They have been touring since the Middle Ages. I swear I saw a mural of Charlemagne hosting a Stones concert. NickO

My vintage watches also look better than me 😂 Fantastic Omega you chose for this weekend 👍🏻

That's how they understood themself at the beginning. I think they jumped on the rock wagon later. More money in that ...

... our WS Host Team!! We’ll have a Good Time this week end!! Look forward to lots of awesome watches, photographs and stories from our friends!! Cheers! Abel

I’m looking forward to your photos and the story that goes with them.

So let me play with a couple of watches that shared my "good times" last Summer. According to my google photos, my Milgauss green glass and Aquanaut 5167 seem to be the two pieces that shared most of my adventures in Summer 2018...so here's for you a quic...  

Your having a “Good Time” in some considerable style. Milgauss and a cocktail in Venice scores extra points in this weeks competition 🥂... Thanks for joining us this week.

Which was my first vintage Fifty Fathoms, at a time they were too expensive for many ( 4 K Euros ), but not for me. These were the good old times! Best, Nicolas ...  

Your first vintage Fifty Fathoms must be a special moment. Great choice Nicolas !

Buen fin de semana amigo mio!! Abrazos! Abel

Fantastic shots 👌🏻

The photo that best fits the “ good times” definition is attached below, two VC 1921’s delivered on a bed of roses when we were married for 35 years. One of the best days in my live ...  

Do you have a VC 1921 ?

That must have been a very special moment and certainly a “Good Time”. The Platinum version of the VC 1921 is one of my favourites from VC, but for some unexplainable reason I haven’t added one to my collection... Yet ! Thanks for joining us and have a gr... 

Wishing you and your wife another 35 years of Good Times. Enjoy the Historiques, my friend! Daniel

and I'll play with one piece...from the good old times.... I love all my modern watches, but somehow, a vintage piece with a rock solid history that still survives into our times...what shall I say, it's another sensation, right??? somehow I like to compa...  

I totally agree with your sentiment. about modern watches, vintage pieces with a solid history are a special sensation. Great to have you with us this week for WristScan.

That moment when Sir Roger, allowed me to strap on his GREAT Britain watch, last November in London, when meeting with him. My Piccadilly is in the background residing on a rather important book... HAGWE All, Cheers, Tim ...  

The watch looks superb and having the opportunity to discuss it with Sir Roger would be perfect. Thanks for sharing this moment with us.

With a favourite watch is great way to go. Love your photo with the martini 🍸 Thanks for joining us for WristScan this weekend, you’ve made a great contribution. Enjoy your weekend !

Hi captain ! Fantastically selection of the WS theme this week. Here is a shot of the black panda Omega CK2998 taken during one of our holiday drives around Switzerland. A Random find and a most pleasant surprise. Some scenery shots to share too Fantastic...
