Many contributions this week in Halloween spirit . . .
. . . and none more in keeping than Watchonthewrist's contribution.
It doesn't get any more Halloween-y than this.
Unfortunately, it's neither W's watch nor even his photo, so it had to be dropped from consideration.
:-(
The colors of Halloween are black and orange, and there were many to choose from.
Nicolas' Panerai . . .
. . . Abel's divers from Doxa . . .
. . . and Omega . . .
. . . and last but not least, Henryk's Blancpain.
All on my shortlist. There were two, though, that stood out for seemingly less apparent reason.
Our Captain's latest addition, the new (and limited production) Omega Speedmaster . . .
. . . was an obvious choice. After all, what could be more fitting for a Halloween watch than being made of moonshine?
I was ever so close to calling this submission of The Captain's as our Watch of the Week. Had a nagging feeling, though, that I'd overlooked one.
Sure enough, after several reviews, it dawned that Tegis' vintage Omega Genève . . .
. . . deserved consideration. A Genève with a black dial and lumed hands and markers is highly uncommon. Since black is one of the colors of the holiday, and lume a necessity while trick-or-treating, this particular Omega is a natural Halloween watch. And while there are now five(!) Moonshine Speedmasters in our community, I'll hazard a guess there's only one Genève like Tegis'.
Watch of the Week to Tegis, runner-up to The Captain, and an honorable mention to Watchonthewrist for inspired effort.
Happy Halloween, all!

I’m grateful for your praise and congratulations to everyone that posted this weekend, WristScan is great fun because of the entries every weekend.
Yup, that's the one! . . .
. . . I've been involved in Wrist Scan since the beginning, and there's never been a backdrop so apropos ;-) . . .
Thank you Nicolas....
The funny part was, that I almost set fire to the strap on my California strap 🔥 😮
Ha ha ha!! You make it look easy but guess skill is also needed! I thought it was some computer wizardry! Lol!
A great final effect you got dear Captain!! Cheers! Abel
My pleasure dear Captain! The FS knife is a timeless design I love so much. It has something...
... very special and classic on its design... pure as a Type E or a Sptifire. Something very special in British design DNA? Best! Abel
Didnt see that coming so thanks
Lets see what theme comes next week and maybee i have a watch and props to enter for another round.
Thanks for the mention dear Art . But all credits to KC for creating such a great watch .
