What a nice selection, with two real highlights !
Truly enjoy your De Bethune DB27, with the contrast of the hands’ intense blue and the salmon finish of the dial.
In addition, your Vianney Halter also renders a sublime appeal !
Well done, Congrats !

WristScan “Ultimate Feature” .... Is Open ! ...
Hello dear friends of WristScan ! Our theme for WristScan this weekend is: “Ultimate Feature”. We choose our watches for many reasons but ultimately it comes down to a special feature that draws us in and makes us “pull the trigger” on owning a watch. Som...
Special hands of my Bvlgari Gerald Genta
Minute hand with a peephole Concave secondhand ...
I really like the minute hand...
It reminds me of a stylish ring pull on a drinks can, in a good way 👍 Thanks for joining us for WristScan this weekend.
There is always a element thats so unique for that watch that you just have to add that particular watch in your collection.
With the SUF its that black case and bronze engraved bezel that i love so much The quirky Tudor P01 with that different lock system and the crown on 4 o’clock and strange lug system. Amazing blue hands with a gorgeous Dial thats also in a beautiful Salmon...
All perfect for our WristScan theme ...
The S.U.F bronze engraved bezel is both cool and interesting as is the case design of the Tudor. The DB27 salmon dial with the blued details are superb and probably the best example of this from any manufacturer. Finally, the VH is a design masterpiece ! ...
What a nice selection, with two real highlights !

Pips on a stick
There are two liners, four liners, red liners but pips on a stick on top of a sunbrushed silver dial is what did it for me. ...
Great photo 👍...
The colours against the sun-brushed silver dial are a truly excellent ultimate design detail. Thank you for sharing this with us on WristScan. Have a great weekend 🥂
Your crown looks very stylish...
I really enjoy this style of crown. Thank you for sharing this beautiful watch with us on WristScan.
Hello dear Captain!! Nice to have you hosting this week end and...
... thank you for bringing a very interesting challenge with the Theme you have chosen. It surely will bring lots of awesome entries from our friends. Let me think a bit about those features which made me jump into some of my pieces and I’ll be delighted ...
Hello dear Abel ...
I’m sure that you will surprise us with some spectacular features that made you fall in love with your watches. Kind regards The Captain
Thank you so much my dear Captain! You are too kind. I hope...
... I won’t disappoint you with my entry in a few minutes! Cheers my dear friend! Abel
The mere simplicity...
... or a sterile dial, the military evocation brought by the circle T, the provenance of course, these are the details which hooked me for good with this one ...
Good choice Ludi ...
I’m definitely with you when it comes to military watches and patina. Best regards The Captain
Blue is my favourite color
... reminds me of the beauty of the sky, especially on rainy day like today
It's not often we choose a watch because of a date function but here's one exception
Or a simple yet distinctive case... ...
Your JD is a beautiful watch ...
and very cool 😎 It’s one that I haven’t tried on but I can just imagine it with a black suit ( yes I remember those days pre Covid ) Thanks for joining us this weekend for WristScan.
Hello Emile: Agree that in some watches the Date Complication has a strong influence in the general design of a dial. Also the case shape can be an Ultimate detail to make us fall...
... in love with them. Your two beauties you share are a good example of that. Hagwe! Abel
Hi Bill ...
Thats a sweet “Red” with creamy patina on the markers, love it ! Hope you have a great weekend 🥂
Absolutely Agree with you Bill: the red touch in a 1680 Sub makes for an awesome Ultimate detail which makes our hearts pound fast. Your example also shows an stunning tropical...
... dial to enhance this dial. Great watch! Hagwe! Abel
Your watch is full of lovely details Bill!
Chocolate dial, creamy indexes, meters first, open sixes, what’s not to like of a beauty like this? Best. René
Another that inspired me, but no one else at an auction
Those hands and numbers called to me and I succumbed. 1940'ish, WG case, cal 150. ...
I’m definitely liking those numbers ...
Reminds us of more elegant design details. Time for cocktails 🍸
The bellflower on the eichi ii movement
And I’m not just talking about the skeletoned barrel, but also the stem and leaves constructed from the bridges ...
That’s a sunning view ! ...
Blued screws, jewels set in brushed metal looks incredible and that’s before we talk about the skeleton barrel. Thank you for showing us this beautiful watch on WristScan. Kind regards The Captain
Hello Watchmatician! Thanks a lot for sharing such a marvelous watch and movement with us. The skeletonized barrel is the start but then the complete view makes for the...
... awesome looks of this movement. Well played! Hagwe! Abel
Far away from any mainstream...
I love the aesthetics of the small titanium earth ball. It‘s the ultimate feature of my beloved Vicenterra Tycho Brahe. ...
Titanium earth ball...
Not something I thought I would be seeing this weekend on WristScan ! It’s a very cool ultimate feature. Keep enjoying it 🥂
The lugs and the dial did it for me
The stepped lugs of the Patek 2481, and the honeycomb dial of the VC called out to me and I could not resist their siren calls! The joys of vintage time only watches... ...
And on beautiful straps ...
Ultimate details on both watches, a difficult choice when you have these two in your collection. I think I would have to go for the VC 🤔 Thanks for joining us for WristScan this weekend. Best wishes The Captain
So my fellow Spaniard has another unit from the first batches of the Habring² Felix...
Did you ever noticed how fine the grailing of the subdial is? Have you ever seen such an azurage elsewhere?
Feeling the love for Habring2 ! ...
I certainly agree with you, Richard and Maria make watches with true passion in every design. I’ve enjoyed this one for several years. Thanks for your post on WristScan 🥂 ...
And ... don’t forget that dial 👀
I didn’t know about the ceramic keepers, that’s interesting 🤔
Hello my Dear Abel, thank you for the comment! Hoping
You and your family are well Sire.
Hmmhh.. Let me see, how to play.. ;))
Picked 3 tic-tacs, for specific reasons there.. 1/ One of my fav JLCs: Duomêtre à Chronographe in WG: Great dark face, elegant appeal - One can wear it with smart wear but also as an elegant evening companion: secondly a great Chronographe with 1/6 second...
Hi hs ! ...
Three beautiful watches with lots of ultimate details. Your Duomêtre à Chronographe is very elegant for a contemporary case size. I have to say that the Habring2 Doppel Felix makes me want to place an order with Maria and Richard. You can feel the passion...
Hello, Captain in kind return !.. Thx for your nice words !.. And Yes, this Habring2 Doppel Felix provides true pleasure from the first minute onwards !
Like you, I also appreciate Maria & Richard‘s fine work rendering happiness for the owner. Best & HAGWE to you, hs.
Hmmhh.. Not that easy.. But IF, and only if another one, I guess either the Felix Chrono with Panda dial, a very low key Chronograph..
Thought to check with them, if this one could also come with their COS -System (Crown only System) for operating the Chrono. - - Am pretty sure, that should be possible.. Could be a sort of conservative appeal with a twist. Let‘s see what will be in the b...
Thx for your as always kind looking !.. Glad you liked the Trio a bit.. BTW: your choices are also more than attractive and mirror your good taste !
Keep enjoying also yours in the very Best of your health ! HAGWE, my friend, hs.
Hello my dear Captain! Here answering to your challenge...
... with a few Ultimate Features which made me pull the trigger in these pieces: I thought I would never need a second 1680 Sub until I found this red inscription: I have an special fondness for the so called California dials so I could not let go this on...
Hello dear Abel 👋 ...
Thank you for joining us for WristScan. You are showing us some wonderful watches with ultimate details. I must say that I love your choice of details. The “red” sub is simple detail that ultimately lifts this watch to a higher level with just one line of...
Thank you so much for your kind comments on each...
... watch I posted my dear friend! I agree with every word you wrote about the details which attracted me to these watches. I’m happy to share them here dear Captain and to know that you like them. Have a beautiful week end My friend!! Best! Abel
As always, my friend - so well chosen your line-up !.. My personal favs are the lovely FP Journe and that amazing..
.. special Omega PO Seamaster WT; love that Rhapsody in Blue ! Lovely choices and Keep enjoying them in the very Best of health ! Best, hs.
Wow wow wow!
Beautiful divers and the features that you pointed. But the killer piece, to me is the F.P. Journe. It is full of beautiful details combined in such a way that everything is harmonious: the guilloché, the frame around the dial, te texture of the main dial...
Thank you so much dear friend René for your kind words and comments. Agree with you that the FP Journe is an special timepiece. You have described its many beautiful features with...
... the exact words. I fell in love with it at first sight! Receive my best cordial regards, Abel
very nice how you captured the Yacht-Master. I like this watch a lot.
your photos here do make me like more, thank you for those shots.
It’s going to have to be this one for now
The dial of this one. The faceted indexes, which depending on the light sometimes look like black, the creamy dial, also the crown, which I haven’t been able to picture well for the moment, and the domed acrylic crystal. The crown has a nice relief of a h...
Hello René 👋...
Vintage creamy dial under the domed acrylic crystal is enchanting. Best regards The Captain
Thanks a lot Capt.
I think the acrylic gives more depth to the dial because it acts like a lens. It is also warmer than sapphire. Best. Rene
I completely agree with your points about the acrylic ...
Have a great weekend Rene 🥂
Thank your my dear Abel
I know you have a keen eye for details. Here are some more: HAGWE you too! René ...
Because of many reasons.
The dial: The lack of pushers: The case: The crown and the movement: the lack of crown: The friendship: The movement: ...
Welcome dear Nicolas ...
An excellent and interesting combination of ultimate details. The “leather” look dial on your Rolex is rich and warm. On your Longines I would like to add the superb rail on the dial, the blue and red works so well. Enjoy the late summer sunshine this wee...
Hello my dear friend Nicolas! Your superb shots well illustrate the different Ultimate details which attracts us and make fall in love with them and take the plunge when we find them.
Your 6542 always make my heart pump fast but any of the other watches are marvelous pieces as well. Have a nice and safe week end my dear friend! Abrazos desde las Pampas, Abel
Superb pics !.. Each shot with his own theme, I like that !.. Needless to say, Uber sublime choices ! :))
This 6542 of yours is in a very special class ! That second shot of the Amvox on a bed of corks is really superb with all its details !.. And so is the UN, which I haven‘t seen yet.. - Something to remember for easier travel times. That Longines tells its...
Your selection is so full of beautiful details amigo mío!
But your 6542 is a mine of nice details: marbled tropical dial, Bakelite bezel, crown, gilded chapter ring, domed plexy... ufff! Also the dial of the mono pusher MB is to die for! A spectacular one under all kind of lights! Best. René
It had to be this one, for obvious reasons
Here on the new strap I just received from Camille Fournet. ...
Boris that looks perfect 👌....
Your new strap was a good choice. Have a great weekend.
Oh Boris! I can well understand you here. I have just received my own Cornes de Vache a week ago. I´m still honeymooning with it. Mine is the steel case version... Those lugs are...
... so charming and the dial and movement stunning. What a great piece with many Ultimate details to make us fall in love with it. Great straps you choose for yours! Keep enjoying and loving it so much! Hagwe! Abel
Same here, Abel
Mine is in steel too, which objectively is a better material for daily wear than gold and platinum. I actually wear this watch a lot. Much more than I would have the 1815 chronograph I was also considering. The blue strap might give the impression that it...
Same here Boris. Steel case is a superb option. It is possible to enjoy the beautiful case/lugs and its superb movement at a more affordable price. Steel is also the best option for a watch
... to use in a regular basis. The dial is also a beauty to boot. The blue straps is a nice complement. Keep enjoying it so much my friend. Have a nice week ahead! Abel
The most felicitous detail in my collection? Has to be the circumspect colored disc leap year indicator . . .
. . . of the GO Karree perpetual. Second most? Night/day 24 hour indicator . . . . . . on the 910 FM. Art ...
Hi Art ...
Two excellent examples of the detail that makes your watches special. It’s given us something to consider that we may have overlooked. Thanks ! Hope you are enjoying your weekend.
Playing pool this afternoon and Sunday evening . . .
. . . with my pals, Captain - it's gonna be a fun weekend! Art
Other than a Stones concert, there's nothing I'd rather do . . .
. . . than shoot pool with pals. 🎱
Two-plus hours of shooting pool with the gang . . .
. . . topped off with late supper at The Rainbow Bar and Grill - Sundays don't get any better than this!
Looks that you had a great time dear Art! I’m glad to know...
... you have enjoyed your weekend!! Cheers! Abel
I'll say! Nothing better than shooting pool with your pals . . .
. . . except . . . Referee? . . . shooting pool with your pals and their dogs.
Ha ha ha!! That’s great!! What a shot dear Art!! And that...
Dog/referee... unbelievable!! Lol!! I love that dog!! Lol!! Thanks for sharing this amazing video! Cheers! Abel
I was going to edit your post to underline . . .
. . . " a ", but thought better of it. One today, one tomorrow - I should be fine. 🍺
Had a bottle of Stella towards the end of our tournament . . .
. . . but it didn't help.
Great Ultimate details my dear friend Art ! The leap year disk indicator is truly a surprising detail and the colorful day night sub dial makes me prefer the 610 FM dial over the 611 model...
... a charming detail. Nice shots my friend. Have a nice and safe week end dear Art!! Cheers! Abel
You played two of the best cards my friend!
Not only the leap year indicator, the shape of the indexes, the moon phase indicator, the texture of the silver part of the dial! And what can I say of your flightmaster? It is also full of nice details! Spectacular case, all the pushers with their distin...
Optional cadmium yellow hands on the Flightmaster, too . . .
. . . which didn't cost any more than standard orange, but had to be specified by a customer prior to delivery.
That is a super special detail!
That I didn’t know about... But then I don’t know many things 😉 Thanks for sharing not only your beautiful watches, but also your vast knowledge, dear Art. Best. René
Dear Cpt, the feature, detail is important....
helps to justify why I need another watch.......... The TT One wont fly at all if Chopard had used a date window instead of a pointer. Need I say more? Yes, how it tells time different from all those I already have. Exclamation! ...
Thks Nicolas! The TT1 is a demonstration of great design.
...an easy way out was to drop the date function.
Hi S.F ...
You hit the target with both your Freak and the Urwerk. Ultimate details, thats for sure ! It’s making my bank card twitch 😫 Kind regards The Captain
Excellent selection SF!
I also like the case with two crowns of the Chopard. The Ulysse Nardin is also a collection of beautiful details. But the cherry on the cake is your beautiful 1675: exclamation dot, chapter ring, puffy luminous indexes, gilt details, pointed crown guards,...
Thks much René!
The 1675 gave me the excitement I had not felt for a long time in this hobby. The search, anticipation, and when it finally arrived in my hand...... Cheers!
I understand your excitement very well!
And as you say, I get this kind of feeling more with vintage pieces than with new ones. But there are few. Thanks for sharing your beauties! René P.S. and please, share more pictures of your 1675!
Hi FRAMII ...
Who could disagree with you, it’s a perfect example of “ultimate detail” Well played 🥂
I fell in love...
With the white color of the seconds hand. It provides contrast and freshness to the otherwise mellow colors of the patinaed lume of the hands and markers, the gold metal tones of the hour and minute hands, the fine „gold dust“ that gives a mellow tone to ...
Hi Daniel ...
Thank you for your kind message, we do our best at WristScan to keep the true spirit going, as you show us your beautiful classic Submariner. The creamy patina is perfectly complemented with your choice of strap. Wonderful ! Thank you for joining us this ...
Yema Superman Heritage
I bought this watch for two reasons. The name (i am a superman fan) and its bezel lock. Although in this heritage edition, the bezel lock is a functionally useless super fluity (as the watch already has a unidirectional dive bezel). In fact, the bezel loc...
Making me curious to get a vintage one.
Maybe next year. As i told myself that watch buying this year is closed already.
These hands on my VH Classic
Will look for a close up and add it a little later when I have access. HAGWE All, Cheers, Tim ...
Hi Tim...
Hope that you are enjoying life. I completely understand your choice. The hand on your VH are some of the best out there. Kind regards The Captain ...
A potential theme
Hi First my Oris - the pointer date is killer Red dot on Lanco Fon, got to love alarm readiness indicator Finally the power reserve indicator on my Tangente There might be a theme! Cheers JML ...
I think so 👍
Oris - the pointer date is beautifully done. I think it will surprise many of us. Thank you for sharing this with us on WristScan. Have a great weekend The Captain
the tri-retrograde second hands
thanks, Captain! for this opportunity to share my "not so talked about" milus ...
Welcome to WristScan ! ...
You should definitely show your Milus more often. Lots of interesting detail. Can you tell us more about this watch ? Kind regards The Captain
sure, Captain!
the main feature of this watch for me is the "useless" complication of splitting the second hand into three hands with each hand responsible for 20 seconds. once 20 seconds is up, the hand jumps back to the starting point and the next hand takes over, lik...
Two ultimate design details ...
Very good choices for WristScan. Have a great weekend.
Unfortunately I have serious upload issues...
So let’s see again... Matching your red Habring2 accent but in a different place... Italian day wheel on the Eterna Sevenday Fast Beat... The letterbox cutout in the side of the case of the Athys to accommodate the longest seconds hand... The 1972 case sh...
Habring Brotherhood ;-)) ....
Hi KMII ! ... I’m typing this very slowly so that this message downloads for you ! I love your Habring2, it’s a great watch as is your Daniel Roth, especially on that strap. How long have you had this one ? Kind regards The Captain
It is just unique
The protecting crown device is unique and it's legibility is so efficient. ...
An in-house metal alloy balance spring was and still is the top feature in watchmaking
To me that feature is a serious criterion. Another special feature of this 1815 moon phase is its honey gold case and possibly more than 1 mm thick solid honey gold dial. Speaking of gold dials, that is also one thing that ranks very high to me and someth...
Hi dear Count ...
I concur with your comments. The balance spring was an inspired contribution. Hope that you are enjoying your weekend. Best regards The Captain
Travel-time
For its simplicity of function. For its symmetrical dial. For its unassuming presence, perhaps. For its comfortable fit on the wrist... ...
Welcome to WristScan...
Two beautiful photos of your PP world-Time. Thank you for joining us this weekend. Best regards The Captain
Thank you Capt. Apologies for
for the lateness 🙏🏻 I was too caught up playing grease monkey! 😂
