WristScan for 10th-12th July "No Brainer" is now live!
By: Boris : July 10th, 2020-04:48
Dear Fellow Purists, We are all collectors, which in itself means a healthy amount of OCD behaviour and procrastination (well, at least for me it does). But ever so often, there are days when one is just not in the mood to engage the brain to chose a watc...
Hamilton & Hajime: my 2 choices for no-brainers
By: NT931 : July 10th, 2020-05:01
Both offer excellent value for money, and are hugely enjoyable on the wrist! The Hammy was bought on impulse at the airport, enroute to Hong Kong, just before Christmas 2018. Great weekend and travel watch! The Hajime Asaoka 'Chrono Tokyo' was another tha...
Two great choices, NT931!
By: KMII : July 11th, 2020-21:30
The no date Hamilton and the ‘Chrono Tokyo’ branded Kurono - well chosen indeed! Still looking at adding one of the latter, when circumstances permit 🤞🏻👍🏻
For me it would be...
By: KMII : July 10th, 2020-05:32
The Habring2 Felix. Can dress up or down (just by changing a strap), is easy to set and always fun. Plus sufficiently stealthy that it’s not a problem wearing practically anywhere. Have a great weekend! ...
Great looking...

Reminds me a little bit of CREDOR EICHI II
Hi KMII...
By: Cpt Scarlet : July 10th, 2020-05:59
It’s always good to see your beautiful Habring2. Flexible enough for a modern schedule. Hope that you and your family have a great weekend. Kind regards The Captain
It is quite nice so far...

Had tons of meat to replace the blood the mesozoic mosquitoes 🦟 here suck out of me every day 😉
Certainly can!
By: KMII : July 11th, 2020-21:32
And fully agree with you. Plus it has good memories associated with it, so a double bonus 👍🏻👌🏻
Two great choices, S F!
By: KMII : July 11th, 2020-21:33
Been a while since I have seen this generation FF on a bracelet 👌🏻👍🏻
Thks KMII..
By: S F : July 11th, 2020-22:18
I am more attracted to this version of FF.. in white opaline.... ...
Two fantastic GSs indeed!
By: KMII : July 11th, 2020-21:35
Was actually thinking of posting my SBGX097 here for exactly the same reason 👍🏻
Recently it is this one...
By: shortys home : July 10th, 2020-07:42
... the Bathyscaphe Chronographe Flyback in stainless steel with a meteor grey sunburst dial, individualized a bit with the TTAL sailcloth strap. Have a great weekend everyone! Cheers Henrik ...
This isn't common
By: Boris : July 10th, 2020-17:51
But a gorgeous watch nonetheless. Very interesting configuration.
For me it has to be this one.
By: kev09 : July 10th, 2020-08:06
The BB58 is seldom far from my wrist and is almost a daily wearer. I usually change it for a vintage watch for the evening and I have to make a conscious decision to get a different one from the safe in the morning. The BB58 is a fine watch. Regards Kev. ...
Your collection is stunning, as always
By: Boris : July 10th, 2020-17:54
Am I right in thinking that the Air King gets a lot of wrist time, and is one that you always take with you when you travel?
Perfect choices 👌🏻
By: KMII : July 11th, 2020-21:39
Still have to say my preference would be for the Duometre here 👍🏻

This place is full of them !
A fantastic choice!
By: KMII : July 11th, 2020-21:40
And robust enough for anything one is likely to throw at a mechanical watch 👌🏻
Easy question Michel, it is this one...

By: Cpt Scarlet : July 12th, 2020-08:51
A stealthy piece and perfect for WristScan this weekend.
Beautiful Marine
By: rnaden : July 12th, 2020-09:04
Very versatile and fuss free watch
I don’t have a real ,,no brainer ,, watch .
By: Watchonthewrists : July 10th, 2020-13:02
Try to wear them all as much as possible but if i have to choose a few watches that i would pick without thinking it would have to be these ...
Absolutely, I guess i was lucky.
By: Watchonthewrists : July 11th, 2020-01:18
When they released it I called the nearest AD to put me on the list , then he told me he still had one for sale 😳. I jumped in my car and a hour later i had it on my wrist 🤗
I feel not myself

if i do not wear my Omega. I am out control if i not wear my Omega. So each day i wear my Omega. I am careful with it, so if i go to do work like washing my car, packing a thing, connecting audio equipment, i wear another watch or no watch. I feel my Omeg...
Two long term and current
By: jml_watches : July 10th, 2020-16:41
Hi My long term no brained is the usual suspect & has been for a while. Not been a day where I don't wear it. My current no brained is one I've had for more than 20 years - been wearing it last few weeks. Enjoying wearing them both, both are automatic & c...
I got the same Seiko
By: Cookies : July 11th, 2020-05:56
Yes it is hardy and of exceptional case finishing. I actually like fiddling with the pebble smooth edges of the case.
What is it now...
By: KMII : July 11th, 2020-21:47
Six years of daily wear of the Urushi? Perfect and a dedication rarely seen 👌🏻👍🏻
Thanks for the kind words, Abel.
By: Boris : July 10th, 2020-17:40
Your selection is exactly what I expected some entries to be. Can't argue with a Seiko diver and a simple, no frills Oyster.
Thank you so much dear friend KM for your kind comments! ...
By: Subexplorer : July 12th, 2020-08:40
Seiko makes some wonderful highly reliable and tough watches like this turtle which are wonderful no brainers. I put mine to work many times specially when I know I’ll be walking in certain parts of my City! 😉 Have a nice and safe weekend my friend! Best!...
The Rolex Explorer...
By: Cpt Scarlet : July 12th, 2020-03:43
Takes some beating for this theme. Robust but comfortable on the wrist and not to big so discreet when required. Great choice and any Seiko is a no brainer at anytime. Have a great weekend dear Abel.
No brainers for different reasons ...
By: Cpt Scarlet : July 11th, 2020-03:07
How can you go wrong, the perfect size ... Natural elements, no problem... The real “No” Brainer ... Have a great weekend friends Kind regards The Captain ...
Thank you 🙏...
By: Cpt Scarlet : July 11th, 2020-04:34

... a no brainer my dear Captain! Though yours is a superb vintage example! The Doxa is an excellent choice Also a true work horse! The Swatch a true surprise: so joyful and fun. A nice option for a no brainer no doubt! Hagwe my dear friend! Abel
My NB watch
By: Cookies : July 11th, 2020-05:52
It’s gotta be this fuss-free piece. I don’t have to babysit it, and it can suit almost any situation. ...
Yes, I think a few other watches are in this subset
By: Cookies : July 11th, 2020-06:53
1) The Longines Legend Diver 2) Brietling Superocean 3) Omega Seamaster 300 (older models, pre-METAS update) 4) Maybe a PAM Luminor Base model Honestly Nic, I would have posted a Rolex Sub (pre-plastic surgery versions) but I cannot buy them back anymore,...

Great quality and flexibility. I like your choice 🥂 Thank you for joining us this weekend.
Hello dear Tony!! What a classy array of no brainers...
By: Subexplorer : July 12th, 2020-08:54
... you share here!! That’s an awesome display! I feel it wouldn’t be so easy for me to choose only one among so many exquisite options!! May be a different one each day would work fine for me!! Lol! Well played my dear friend! Abel
My no-brainers . . .
By: Dr No : July 11th, 2020-19:48
. . . are the two that hack. I'm obsessive when it comes to time-setting; can spend five minutes getting a vintage non-hacking Omega just right. Which is ok if I have the time to fiddle. When I don't, it's the Dorn or the Rail. Slap 'em on 'n go! Art ...
Dorn or Rail..,
By: Cpt Scarlet : July 12th, 2020-03:52
Two excellent choices and both with completely different looks. The bracelet on your Railmaster is very cool. Have a great weekend Art.
The Dorn is literally unique . . .
By: Dr No : July 12th, 2020-10:31
. . . as I doubt there's another dial in the same shade of grey, and even less likely inked with black print. Off to go target shooting for the first time in twenty years . . . hope your weekend has been enjoyable, Abel! Warmest, Art
Fortunately, I know four guys . . .
By: Dr No : July 12th, 2020-11:32
. . . who are firearms experts, including two who post here occasionally. If you visit So Cal, we can shoot pool and targets the same day! ;-)

By: CR : July 12th, 2020-11:58
I wish I had a built-in "autopilot mode"! For the past few years, the watch that I pick with the least amount of thinking -- the one I care about the least, in a sense -- is this 1680 red sub. I paid relatively little for it, since some of the lume plots ...
