I thought so ...
Superb !.... I think you will like this ...
WS for the 30th of August is live! Opposites attract...
As announced the other day the topic this week is opposites attract. What I would like to see are uncommon combinations featuring your watches - whether it’s dress pieces on a beach, high complications in tool settings, a G-Shock in black tie or unconvent...
Ok ,ok, at that game, I am not too bad...
My kind of watch winder. Then, what about some Duometre on Natos? A sweet candy, this Duometre. The Reverso Red has to be mentioned. And I would not like to end without my weirdest shot... As Art likes to say: " You knew this one was coming ". ...
Okay, that last picture is really, really disturbing
It would give small children and Vegans nightmares.
I also say: I felt THIS ONE was coming!! OMG that Devilish shot!! ...
... The Duometre... such a sweet timepiece! Looks so cool with the Nato! Abrazos amigo! Abel
The most frightening one is not the crude ham shot, but this one....
A moderator without watch! ...
I was hoping for mr. Trotter 😉
As you say - inevitable 😂 Some great combinations, Nico!
Damn. I was sure you were going to share . . .
. . . the Audi grill pic. And the story, too.
That last photo - that should be enlarged and printed as a poster !
superb choices my friend
Thanks KMII for a fun and thought-provoking contest! So let me play it as "Patek vs Everyone"...with a bunch of shots taken a various time this summer by myself or my girlfriend..:-) Cheers.

You really are playing according to the rule breaker handbook, Fab R!
These shots are so very cool!
Tough challenge this week!
Trying to rack my brain what I could contribute this week and the only thing I had was with the theme of "big & small". HAGWE everybody! ...
A very challenging theme for this weekend dear Km!...
which is well illustrated with your opening shots! Let’s try to answer your call with these shots: How about a little robot wearing a Zenith or a friendly astronaut wearing... a Speedy! What else? Or may be a GS GMT high beat ltd edition worn at the beach...
It doesn’t seem at all difficult, Abel...
If I judge by your shots 😊 A great weekend to you, too!
Awesome photos, but, in the interest of the theme...
Shouldn't the Astronaut be holding the Aquanaut?!
Thanks a lot for your kind comments Thegrailwatch!! Ah yes, that would be more appropiate to the theme indeed ha ha. I found these shots in my HD and I didn´t own the Aquanaut when I took...
... these shots. I should have retaken the shots now I guess. Lol! Hagwe! Abel
Making the summer hotter ..
Very nice theme for this weeks WS, KMII. An ueber-classic dress watch worn with summer attire. To me it works! Best weekend to all! ...
You are even better to me :-)))!
Another great quote from Moooonayyy is: "Don't get saucy with me, Bearnaise!" (the name of his travel companion in the carriage)
A great weekend to you too, Abel!
The Aquanaut with the black strap with white stitching 👌
Strange Combinations ...
Zenith Big Pilot with Savile Row suit... Roger Dubuis and a little DIY ... Rolex Explorer Mince Pie Dial (Piece Unique) ... ...
Thank you..
This photo was taken at a local Rolex AD when I went to check on progress of my order for a new Daytona ;-(
Just what kind of DIY were you engaged in?
It somehow reminds me of a line from ‘Murder in the red barn’ by Tom Waits - ‘There’s always some killing to be done around the farm...’ 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Think I need to volunteer as the Wrist Shot Judge
just so I can solidify your victory with the Explorer/Mince Pie masterpiece of photography!🙂🙂🙂
I would like to have it serviced but ...
I’m concerned that Rolex will replace the dial ;-))
Great shots my dear friend!! Specially love...
... the special order Explorer dial!! Hagwe! Abel
Thank you Abel..
It’s started getting a patina that I’m not very sure that I like ;-))
yes, with friends at their place, in the canton of Fribourg....lots of kids activities...
hope your weekend is nice as well, y
Yes, it’s been a lot of fun ...
With friends, restaurants, bars and live music... not forgetting WristScan !
This week I'll share images taken by, and in honor . . .
. . . of, Patrice. [Both images credited to Patrice, 2014] Patrice was an active member of our community for several years. He had a special knack for crafting oddly juxtaposed watch and strap combinations that matched his quiet personality. There are man...
They might not work for most guys, especially the red Reverso . . .
. . . on green canvas, but somehow, they seemed natural on Patrice's wrist. He's kinda like Audrey Hepburn - she could wear a diamond necklace with jeans and boots, and no one would think twice of it. Same with Patrice and his combos.
Wow, loving the Reverso on that strap!
Now I’m conflicted between your shot and Cpt Scarlet’s Explorer/Mince Pie. This is going to be a good one... it’s only Friday!
Patrice took that photo of his Reverso five years ago . . .
. . . so all credit goes to him. I hope he sees this thread and jumps in!
If anyone told you that Patek would work on a NATO, you'd probably say . . .
. . . "That's crazy!" But Patrice made it work for him . That's saying something . . .
Full Gold case and bracelet and that awesome green dial...
Make for a most stunning GMT!! Wonderful! Hagwe! Abel
Simply wow!
Good thing food is already on the way, or I would have bitten the screen 😉👌🏻
It was indeed!
Can only recommend Kamchatka crab salad! In fact anything from the animal 😂
not what it looks like
Hi My EMAS diver, what I like is that it may have all the tropes of dive watches - it subverts them by being useless at them. Cheers JML ...
Where to start...
The first series are non-sport watches at the beach Rose Gold case with rubber strap, unusual case material with rubber. How about classic and very much not... Two from UN, quite opposite I'd say HAGWE All, Cheers, Tim ...
You’re definitely a master of the genre!
The beach shots are superb but the watch that has me most intrigued is the fast beat UN. Given the bracelet - how does it wear?
The bracelet UN wears surprisingly well
Even though the links are quite large, it is quite comfortable. Definitely an outlier in my collection. Cheers, Tim
Have occasionally seen it for sale online but always too far away to actually go and try it
Thanks for the feedback 👍🏻
Opposites .. let me think.. perhaps these?
firstly, KMII, nice watches and shots. That last chicken leather got me interested ! Opposites theme.. maybe these would be ok? 1) panda and reverse panda 🐼 speedies 2) Blue Dial AP and a Pink shirt.... Best regards and HAGWE my friends ...
A bit late
my son just reminded me that we had to participate. A drink on the terrace (Coke Zero) ...
Judging WotW was complicated on account of . . .
. . . the unusual theme. When judging Wrist Scan and Static, aesthetic considerations of the image should be weighted equally with content. In other words, a particularly striking or carefully composed photo of an ordinary watch can be judged tops. When i...
