Here’s the Static verdict...
The only thing making judging somewhat easier this week was that there were fewer static entries than wrist shots; still, so many worthy entries to choose from. Here’s my verdict.
Abel, like always has produced a raft of fantastic pictures. His static GS shot though, illuminating the GMT hand so wonderfully, was my favourite - third place for this week.
Nico has shown a watch rarely seen here this week - the AP Metropolis in platinum. And what a special one - a rare combination of world timer and perpetual calendar. Joint third place this week.
A globe, Jules Verne and a VC 1921? Got to be one of the front runners in my view - Mo‘s spectacular shot comes second.
I foretold Mo‘s 1921 to be the winner this week. And he was - in my humble opinion - just pipped to the post by the next entry - the GMT of MattS. Congratulations on winning Static this week, Matt!
Once again congratulations to the winners and thanks to all that participated!

Judges and verdicts for the 6th of July WS
Seems like the travel watch theme has brought plenty of favourites to the fore along with some watches we see relatively rarely. Time to announce the judges and allow them to post their verdicts. So here goes... - Wristshot will be judged by KCKL - Static...

Theses are some terrific photos, and watches.
Congratulations to all the winners, and nice job, KM. But didn't you miss someone??
Hell....
Born with a silver spoon in my mouth, that I subsequently upgraded to platinum.
Congratulations...
Excellent photos. Love the 1921 Drivers Watch. And the GMT is superb.
Thank you so much for the mention and top runner up position!!!!
Well done to everyone who made the top slot!!! Congrats Mo
Congrats Matt! It is a stunning shot no doubt! Well deserved! Congrats to all special mentions and thanks a lot dear KM for ...
... including my shot among them! Have a nice week friends!!
"All about the bass . . .
. . . not the treble." Watch of the Week is all about the watch and not the image, unlike Static Photo and Wrist Scan, which are essentially beauty contests. Judging WotW is a subjective exercise: which submission intrigues the most? There were the usual ...
Not collecting Seiko anymore, but if one of these popped up . . .
. . . in the right place and time, I'd be sorely tempted.
That was fun!
Maybe not the bassoons, but your voyage through the field of watches for your WotW choice. Exemplary. And congrats to all who were mentioned.
Thanks! and more info :)
Thanks Dr. No! I appreciate your good eye In case people are interested, I wrote about the 6217 in some depth several years ago. Here's the link (hope it works!): www.watchprosite.com
I remember that thread, Matt! . . .
. . . these Seikos remind me of Travolta's line from Pulp Fiction about 'little differences'. Royale with cheese? Essentially the same as their Swiss counterparts, just a little bit different ;-) . . .
Great Seiko WT's! Particularly like the dark dial version. Congratulations to all winners & honorable mentions - Great theme this week KM!
And thanks for the kind mention too, Art. Cheers, Giles
Here we go, guys! Too many winning shots 👍🏻
KM’s Great looking dial Saso’s I am sucker for nice backdrops Matt’s Great shot of a legendary watch Horo’s All things MB&F, very cutting edge, the car too 😉 Abel’s Nice shot of the Coke Diracpoint’s Flying to yachting, maybe he is the Skipper Last but no...
Nicolas sorry I took such a long time to reply.
i am celebrating change of government. Being oppressed, not a good feeling. Cheers my brother.
Thank you!
Double strike this week!...1675 for static and 6542 for WS! Rolex GMTs are difficult to beat for this theme! Matt
Thank you :-)
for the mention. Not a skipper at all ... it was a new purchase, so took it with me for the trip.
Great job judging KCKL! Not an easy task with so many wonderful entries! Congrats to all winners!
Thanks a lot for your kind mentioning of my GMT 16610! All the best! Abel
