As I said last Wednesday when announcing theme for this week end, w e request our members a big dose of imagination to figure us in a gorgeous Italian Hotel standing by the sparkling blue waters of Lake Como enjoying a week end full of beautiful classic c...
Great theme Abel....
Just decided on a quick respray for WristScan !... Wrist shots to follow;-)) Photo Credit: The Captain ...
Wow! Thank you so much Captain!! I guess I recognize these sexy curves! They have been haunting me for so long! :)) Guess pain job and reassembly will not be in time for...
... participation, but may be you have some old shots to share! Look forward to the watch shots!! Cheers! Abel
๐ดBorn to be wild๐ด
How about this combo? A red Pontiac Firebird Trans Am ...while wearing this ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ ...
Striking front shot of that awesome red Trans Am Thegrailwatch!! And the watch superb and with those red touches matching the car colors!! Is this car yours? .
Thank you for your participation this week end!! Hagwe! Abel
Guessing that's a '72 Trans Am . . .
. . . and fully aware it represents the last of the breed of true muscle cars. The '73 and '74 Super Duty 455's were literally the last high-output engines Detroit offered for a decade, until the Buick Grand National came along. Cool stuff!
I decided......
I inflated the car! How amazing is this community ! This WS was launched on the day ( today ) that I took delivery of my fully restored 356!! This is just the warm up as I am busy driving it now but will take some proper pics tomorrow!!! Red on red Proper...
Well done!
Truly love your combination and photo. Will red be the theme of the weekend?

A great thread dear Abel! Let me play with two cars and two watches then to have some fun...
The first is a car I spotted a few weeks ago in via Montenapoleone in Milano, where all kinds of funny things happen...Elegance is the last word that comes to my mind for a Mercedes completely covered in alligator, but it was just impossible not to take a...
Ciao Fab! Agree with you about your comments about Montenapoleone Street in Milano. Not surprising to meet a leather covered Mercedes there! Lol! ... In any case...
... I was expecting some gorgeous pictures coming from you. Thank you so much for your submission!! Keep enjoying the Bella Italia! And your beautiful Patek duo! Hagwe! Ciao! Abel

Great shots Nicolas ๐ฅ...
Love the one with driving gloves on ;-) ... De Tomaso is super cool ๐
I expected the P1800...
And the shots are superb. But tell us more about the De Tomaso and the Rouge!
I see...
So no De Tomaso on the cards? He did invent the watch over cuff look even before Agnelli ๐๐๐ป
The Quail Motorsports...
Waaaayyyyyy too many nice cars to share. Superb themes Abel ๐๐ป ...
Wow Raymond!! Thatยดs not a Virtual Concourse... but a Real One!! Thank you for sharing those magnificent cars and watches!! The Lange 1 with the purple dial... awesome!!
Superb shots of cars and watches! Hagwe! Abel
Yup, itโs the real deal...I also have the chance to attend Concorso de Eleganza Como back in 2016...
Itโs really a great connection between cars and watches. HAGWE too.
Nice of you sharing your experiences Raymond. Agree with you that there is a great connection about cars and watches in these events. Both have charm and great attraction.
Great post to participate in our Virtual Concorso!! Cheers! Abel
Great theme, great cars, great watches
Ferrari Daytona, seen at 2013 Saxonia Classic Matching watch? This or that? ...
Great theme dear Abel .
My dream car & watch combo would be this The gorgeous 1950 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500SS Villa D,Este Coupe by Touring with My Akrivia RR cc ...
Dear friend Watchonthewrist: Thanks a lot for your wonderful submission to our contest! The car: Sublime! They really knew how to make classy and beautiful cars in those years!..
... fantastic choice!! And your Chronographe Contemporain a fantastic choice to drive the four wheel marvel. Which is the case metal? I have read that there are some steel case watches in the works. In any case the blue dial in contrast with the white met...
๐ i think a lot of people will find a lot of my watches odd my friend .
Thanks glad you like them ๐ค
I wasnโt aware you went for Independents on the automotive front as well...
And that Alfa definitely was one at the time. Superb choice! The Akrivia is an excellent pairing ๐๐ป
The one that got away...
Great theme... So many interesting cars and watches, but I decided to go with โThe one that got awayโ. I almost got the car but at least I got the watch. Have a great weekend friends !.... ...
Wonderful entry dear Captain!! We collectors know that in our sport some times we win some times we loose. May be this makes part of the excitement of collecting objects...
... we also know we canยดt own everything we wish. In this case you keep being a winner... a sublime watch. Lady Luck will always return with a new chance... to win or loose depends on circumstances when she arrives!. Thank you for your post! Love the MB a...
Thank you Abel....
I remember taking her out for a drive. Better to have loved and lost ... as the saying goes. All part of our passion for collecting !
Yes you are right Nicolas....
You know how annoying it is when you miss an opportunity, itโs always the one that you remember ๐ฅ
Too bad it got away...
Still, judging by your other car entry, youโre not without options ๐ Great shots ๐๐ป
Great submission Terbaboom!! Iยดm not a Porsche expert, but guess this is a 911/997 ? Anyway this is a classic in my book and an enjoyable and exciting little car to drive...
... The Chopard GT a superb choice to enhance the driving pleasure!! Hagwe and thank you for your participation!! Abel
Classic 997 ..
Great colour combination and the best wheel choice. Your Chopard is the perfect partner. Good to see you joining WristScan this weekend ๐
Here are some more...
Not by the lake yet but will be tomorrow... And.....,,,, with some summer companions too... I will post a couple more tomorrow with different background if you donโt mind๐๐๐ Yours Mo ...
super beautiful car ๐
there's one being quoted for sale here... at more than SGD 0.5M... and it can only be driven for max 45 days a year under our regulations m.sgcarmart.com
Oh, man . . . what a beaut! . . .
. . . scintillating pics, Mo. Slightly jealous, Art
Hi all, like to participate at Lake Como but still stuck on my island
Want to show you my limousine, a reliable Suzuki Jimny with some 59 hp, perfect finish and some noise somewhere and banana gearbox. ...
Dr No's . . .
. . . wet dream: '71 'Cuda 340 4-speed, Winchester grey, black vinyl top. The ultimate s ex treet machine. Recently on my wrist: ฮฉ ref 2494, ca '49. Quiet Saturday night at home, practicing pool and dining on cold salmon with romaine salad. Hope all's wel...
My heart belongs . . .
. . . to Dodge and Plymouth muscle cars. A few GM and Ford models are of interest - Mercury Cougars, particularly - but for the most part, it's Mopar for me. Art
Exactly fifty years ago, young Dr No spent minutes on end . . .
. . . gazing at a Mercury Cougar Boss 302 Eliminator on display in the local mall. That one was a light/medium shade of green. Yours truly was transfixed. The Cougar of that era was the diametric opposite of the 'Cuda - long and angular vs wide and curvy....
Great combo Art ๐...
Iโve had the pleasure of seeing a couple racing over the years. Great to watch ! ...
No less than Dan Gurney raced a 'Cuda . . .
. . . in Trans Am for a season. His team wasn't successful, but they only had one season before Chrysler execs pulled the plug on the program.
I had the great pleasure of meeting Dan ...
What a legend and a gentleman. I just wish that I had the opportunity to meet Mark Donohue ...
Mark and Dan were my teen idols. Saw Dan race once, Mark several times . . .
. . . and winning once at a NASCAR road race held at Riverside Raceway. All gone now, including Riverside Raceway. Ah, memories . . .
Great choices dear Art!! How many nights I dreamt with those fantastic powerful Cudas in my youth!! And well... what can I say about your Omega you choose for the week end? ;)
I wish you are having a wonderful week end my dear friend. Everything is doing well down here, thank you so much. Have a nice week ahead my dear friend! Abel
Now I hope that s treet machine becomes reality soon, Art ๐ค๐ป
A fantastic car indeed and the Omega to match ๐๐ป
No wherewithal in sight to properly fund a car project, and anyways, my place has only one . . .
. . . garage spot. But some day, there will be a ground-up Mopar project built to my specs. Hopefully sooner than later.
Dear Abel, my contribution this week. ..:) Best wishes Will.
A nice color match the 300 SL with my FP Journe ... And more down to earth .... My VW T2 that I restored with my Breguet Tradition .... Best wishes, Will ...
Hello Will!! Two wonderful contributions to our contest my friend!! The Mercedes a classic in the dreams of every car enthusiast...

Many nice memories with the VW bus! We really loved it! Cheers! Abel
Sorry for the late entry...
But weโre on holidays somewhere in the mountains and seeing the sheep festival was a clear priority for the kids (I am quite partial to eating them ๐). As I have few watches with, here an archive shot of the Montblanc Rally Timer in a classic Alfa GTV. Wo...
Unfortunately not...
In spite of the design the 50mm are on the large side. Might still go for one at some point ๐ค๐ป
Never too late dear KM!! Glad to view your entry!!
Awesome watch you show! And the Alfa is not bad option I feel!! Yes the Snowflake arrived last February. It had been haunting me for long and finally could get one. A great watch! Thank you so much for your kind comments!! Hagwe my dear friend!! Abel

Somehow didnโt know you had a Snowflake - superb choice ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป
