Lots of wrist shot candidates this time around as last week . . .
. . . so let's get started!
Abel shared several compelling images . . .
. . . Captain somehow managed to get an early viewing of CK 859(!) . . .
. . . timeout convincingly captured the bodaciousness of his Duometre . . .
. . . as well as an unusually shallow perspective of his elegant JLC perpetual . . .
. . . Filip crafted a heartfelt composition of his JLC with a familiar background 
. . .
. . . 
. . . 111forza surprised us with a Ventura that's as intriguing as it is uncommon . . .
. . . and Thomas snapped a fetching portrait of his beloved Panerai.
This is a tough call to make because Captain was able to take a wrist shot of a W&W novelty. I'm calling a tie for the blue ribbon between Cap's CK 859 and Abel's Hamilton as Most Relevant and Best Composition respectively, with 111forza's Ventura in his garden second and Thomas' Panerai third.
Hope you're all having a relaxing Sunday . . . gorgeous weather here in So Cal, a perfect day for a game of pool at the seaside dive bar.
Best,
Art

Watch Of The Week …
Hello again dear friends ! Thank you to everyone that posted this weekend and joined the interesting conversation about the latest watches announced. Now for the results… A special Vintage WOTW award for Dr No, Art who has just completed a long term ambit...
I'd been chasing a 2410 for 10+ years . . .
. . . and while the example just snagged isn't perfect, it's close enough to justify paying a collector's premium. I'm a very happy camper. 😌
Congratulations Art …
It’s a special watch and a real landmark in your collecting journey.
Sincere congrats Art!!
A worthwhile endeavor from my impassioned point of view . Cheers to that achievement, Filip
Thanks much, Filip. My Flightmaster was also a journey . . .
. . . of 10+ years. It helps to be patient. Art
LOL, tell me about it....
I just managed to obtain my AMVOX dream piece after over 11 years of waiting for the right moment!!!! Cheers, Filip
Big congrats dear Art for this awesome addition to your vintage Omega chronometer collection. A 10 year plus chase! Wow! Perseverance is one of the virtues of the true collector!
You say it is not perfect but it looks great to me and with lots of character. Enjoy it so much my dear friend. A big hug for you!! Cheers! Abel
Well done to MTR, Timeout, and especially to PFSParis for that stunning Rolex GMT!
And not forgetting a sincere congrats to Art and that priceless 2140!!
Many thanks Captain
for arranging another great theme this week and for judging. Happy to have placed in such prestigious company with an old favorite. Congratulations to all.
Thank you, dear Captain!
and congrats to all the winners and especially zo Art for his stunning Omega 2410. By the way: the "150 edition" is the Panerai 127 ("Fiddy"). ;-)
Many thanks…
I did list the Panerai as a 1950 Special Edition but will edit the post and include 127 and “Fiddy” for you.

That Ventura....
was a genuine surprise to my eyes, I initially thought it might be a fashion watch given the similarity between their V logo and Giorgio Armani's wing logo........ Great choices Art, Filip
Wow … I’m in good company ;-))
Thanks Art and congratulations to Abel. The new CK 859 is a great watch. I was lucky enough to view it before it hit the press. I urge anyone that likes it to get a closer look at an Omega Boutique. Best regards Captain
Many thanks for the honorable mention Art
Love those pump pushers on the Hamilton - worthy of the joint win this week! Thanks for judging!
Hello dear Art! Thank you so much for the honor of sharing the place with Captain Scarlet. Big congrats to our friends 111forza and Thomas and to all special mentions. The CK 859 seems to be a favorite of many members...
... including me (I already entered an order for one here!) and I feel this watch is a great addition to Omega catalogue. Best cordial regards, Abel
Thank you for the mention Art
Honoured to get a mention with some wonderful watches on show well done guys 👏

Many congrats to Chronometer (Yacomino), KMII and Soikos for their great watches and static shots!
Dear Stoikos, you won again. )) Your photos are always very special and outstanding! Cheers Thomas
Thanks a lot for the congratulations!
And a worthy winner indeed - the Pogue shot was fantastic 👏🏻👌🏻
Dearest Abel, thank you. Congrats to Yacomino and KM for their wonderful watch shots. And thanks to Cpt for hosting. 🍾🍻
So many fantastic watches debuted this year at W&W. But if I buy any more, my wife will kill me. I know many of you are in the same boat!
A very difficult question that‘s almost impossible to solve….
Divorce and more watches or stay married and humble (no more watches). A momentous decision in life… LOLLLL 🍻 my friend 😁 Thomas
Congratulations to Stoikos ! …
Superb static shot. Congratulations also to KMII and Chronometer/Yacomino, well played gentleman 🥂 Many thanks dear Abel for your judgment !
