WristScan

As announced yesterday the theme this weekend will be ‘Most Frequently Worn Watch’. While most of us rotate watches on a regular basis, there tend to be one or two pieces that for whatever reason get more wrist time than the rest. These are what we would ...  

Here are mine. If I look over the period since 2014, when I joined here, the winner has to be: If it’s all time, the one below got most wrist time, even if it’s rarely worn nowadays. Currently? Hard to say 🤷🏻‍♂️ But since I work in an office environment a...  

I joined to ask questions about it and the rest is history 😉 But it was probably the last daily wearer, in the meantime so many others joined that it will be hard to top it 😉

I mean astonishing. Your Breitling is a very interesting watch. It is equipped with a nice ostrich strap, and it have that blue dial that rocks. To fall into a deep respect, i want information as much you can give. Case size. Movement. Year of build. What...  

The Breitling is actually a chrono, and alarm and all the rest. It’s 40mm and I believe I got it either in 2000 or 2001 and wore it daily for many years. Two great watches you show, too. The BM has a lovely green dial and the RT looks very pilot like 👍🏻👌🏻... 

Interesting history. I can make up now a small view how Breitling goes with Navitimer likes. Somewhere from the start around 1954 till this day. Very little i know about the movements Breitling use throughout the years. To this day, Breitling equipping in... 

and nice pics too 👊

I have a couple more modern watches and many vintage pieces. I don't wear the vintage usually on a daily basis, I feel they may be a bit "delicate" for lack of a better word for daily wear, so I wear them sparingly. ...  

Which covers most of the needs so I can well see why they would get a lot of wrist time 😊👍🏻

I bought this piece in the Roma boutique a week ago, after putting my name almost a year ago on a previous trip with my wife. This watch will be our "Roma" watch (yes, she likes it a lot as well). Trips i have in great memory with my wife. This will be a ...  

And congratulations on your latest addition 👌🏻👍🏻

...it's great when they offer a multitude of straps (and bracelet) that all work so incredibly well! The Czapek Monochrome 'works' extremely well in virtually for all occasions / events / situations. With a solid build quality that's sturdy enough for off...  

One thing I also notice with my watches - those that dress up and down well through straps get a lot more wrist time. Great Czapek that really seems extremely versatile 👌🏻🙌🏻

great choice 💪👍

Love the font, plus it adds to legibility day and lume night. Someone should name a timepiece '12' 🤣

...  

With a great re-edition design paired with modern internals and a wonderful size 👌🏻👍🏻

I'd have taken it as my all time favourite if it had a hand wound movement like original instead of automatic. But you can't have everything in one watch 😇 ...  

Since I bought this watch three months ago it’s been pretty much the only thing on my wrist. I just adore it. Wishing you and everyone a great weekend! B ...  

Nowadays I tend to wear mostly independents, too but with several tens of watches they will struggle to accumulate as much wrist time as the two posted, which were ‘only watches’ for years 😊🤷🏻‍♂️

Hello dear KM and friends, I’m a serial watch changer at heart so my watches get rotated frequently. Good for the soul ) Here are some of the recent frequently enjoyed pieces … Today I have been enjoying playing with one of my cars … If it rained I was go...  

Certainly requires some weatherproofness 😁👍🏻 Great selection and I can clearly see why those ones made it! The last one is intriguing - can you tell a bit more about it?

It’s a car everyone should experience at least once in a lifetime. As for the watch if you haven’t heard of Dumoreau you should certainly take a look. This is an elegant watch in a restrained case size, managing to look both vintage yet modern in a tastef... 

Was the original and in my opinion the best.

rotation and time on our wrists. You share some great examples here. You can never go wrong with a Submariner. Interesting Bamford custom variant you own. Guess we can say the same for the Omegas: reliable and good looking both of them. I really love your... 

You are right, we have some favourites that we are naturally drawn towards. My Nautilus is a watch that I love to enjoy … ...  

… this watch calls your attention for much wrist time. What a wonderful timepiece that you share in a stunning shot! Keep enjoying and loving it so much my dear Captain! Abel

- First of all, Sorry for the mishap, but had to re-post as I apparently had run out of time (and had forgotten to save the entry). - Thus, all was lost.. Grr.. I‘ll make it simple this time and enter just 4 sets of pics, (with 1 Main Fav) grouped as they...  

Glad, you like it ! And Yes, these different hues of blue give it a sublime appeal ! - It has become my Number 1 watch for going out. Thx again & Cheers !

After trying your version alongside the original I can say that the blue dial makes the watch 10x more appealing.

Four wonderful entries and as mentioned last time - that JLC blue dial really transforms the watch in my eyes and makes it much lovelier. A fantastic quartet all around 👍🏻

And BTW: I always love your fine blue Chopard Fly Back Chrono and also the way you often change its „shoes“ by showing lovely diversity and great matching with a whole big bucket of great straps ! HAGWE & Best to you & yours ! 🙂😊

The watch is certainly versatile strap wise.

.. my apologies for double posting of the recent blue Master Cal. last week, but it just shows my enthusiasm for that specific model, in all hues of blue for going out ! Nevertheless also cool with summerly Chinos or Jeans.. - To me, currently the most at... 

The local ADs are no longer in the habit of stocking anything but as we are moving let’s see if I manage more luck 👍🏻

Oof! Yes please 👌

The JLC is a superb watch and the sautante date complication a very nice and interesting one and wonderful to have in such a classy timepiece. No necessary to comment on the Aquanaut... a sophisticated GADA it is! The DSA and ceramic Daytona two exquisite... 

I wear it most days. Despite having many piece of HH, I don't tend to wear nice watches to work. For that reason this watch and my speedmaster automatic get most the wrist time. Ghost Captain ...  

Rado really did well with it and broadened their appeal quite a bit with this line 👌🏻👍🏻

… this interesting theme for this weekend. As it was said by our dear Captain Scarlet above I’m also a serial watch changer rotating my watches in an almost daily basis. Anyway I see that there are a few watches which are very often on my wrist again and ...  

A very ‘Abel’ selection indeed - watches that define you and that we frequently see posted by you 👌🏻👍🏻 Likewise a great weekend to you 👋🏻

Agree with you ! 😉 Enjoy a great weekend my dear friend Best Abel

Really liked your Sub 5512; it breathes the test of times, a real Classic ! - And what would dear Abel be without some of your Omega gems, whereby I truly liked that early generation of Planet Ocean; this although the current offers for this Planet Ocean ... 

I´m happy to know you like the old Sub 5512. It has a lot of character no doubt. Agree with you that Omega offers some great watches within it´s present line of Planet Ocean divers and of course their movements are much improved over the old movements of ... 

As you know, there is a strong debate among collectors and watch lovers about the difference of patina and decay or just rust and about the beauty of these watches with such an strong change from its original color and surface. I sometimes have a mental d... 

Most likely contenders for me would be My APRO - particularly in the summer My Nautilus - which alternates depending on my color preference This one has also seen a lot of use over the past few months. And this one will get a 2 week stint from next week a...  

Most of us don’t meticulously document which watch is on which day, so more entries are fully appropriate. Really love your selection but for this weekend your PP chrono is my slight favorite 👌🏻🙌🏻

A disadvantage of having so many choices and changing daily is that my appreciation of a particular watch only grows with consistent wear - which seldom happens. That’s one reason that I only take one watch on my travels. The Grönefeld is making the trip ... 

.., a Chrono- Ref. I share with you - .. and this wonderful Gronefeld, a watch that so far has always escaped my more detailed attention, which I already have thought to correct by a deeper look into their bucket.. - Low-key, unobtrusive but clean and ver... 

The Grönefeld is a real beauty which I can absolutely recommend. I woke up to the manufacture with the 1941 Remontoire but not early enough to obtain from them. I tend to add to my collection based on the complication so scratched the remontoire itch with... 

The Nautilus is a classic. I remember as a teenager growing up my best friend had a SS Rotary - just found a photo online - which I thought was the greatest ever! Whenever I wear my Nautilus I think of those days 😂 ...  

I can also remember particular watches and the associated people from decades ago…can’t remember what I did last week though 🥴

This was my first serious watch - a Seiko - around 1977. Don’t know what happened to it but it served me well for quite a few years. ...  

Her answer was quick, this one: This is a special one for aperna: a tasty Negroni This is a special one for gregcarraram a tasty Partagas ...  

. . . at any one time. I try to give them all equal attention, but some inevitably get less than others. The watch I find myself reaching for, though, is a fairly recent arrival. Yup, the pre-moon '69. Not the Ed White, which is also always at home, but t...  

Not always can we elucidate the reason but this one is certainly you 😊👍🏻
