WristScan

Nilo's first verdict as a moderator goes to . . .

. . . Alain for Watch of the Week.

"Art,

Since we are switching this night to daylight savings, I believe it is better to send my vote now (I may sleep too much this night - or too little).

My Watch of the Week goes to the watch of 'alain2701'. I believe that everyone here has some fatal attraction to vintage Longines chronographs and this one is a very nice piece. Amazing dial, wrapped by a strap that complements and enhances the watch.

My congratulations to 'alain2701'.

As a second place, it should be a tie if the first one was not a Longines, goes to our great Hunter, Mr. Graham, a k a G99.

His flair for unknown brands is amazing and he is, for sure, the best hunter (on the British tradition) that I know here.

The Jacquet+Girard Airvac 400 is in amazing condition and is a true La Montre Du Futur Pour L'Homme (pardon my French).

That is it.

Have a great Sunday.

Nilo"

Thanks, Nilo. There were two truly exceptional watches displayed this week (well, six, if you count all that were depicted!), the Haldimanns in Thomas's submission . . .

. . . and the triple-axis Prescher tourbillon in Tim's.

Our Static Photo judge is in transit, and we should hear from him shortly.

A pleasant Sunday to all!

The decision for Wrist Scan was delivered early this week . . .

. . . with honors accorded to Anders for his impeccable artistry with a lens. "Hi Dr No, Incorruptible indeed! It was very easy to find my favorite but at the same time it is very difficult to give the verdict. One picture in my old eyes was above everyth...

Hmmm, Anders, are you considering a new record in the Guinness Book? :))) Congrats!

Thank you Nicolas!

Thanks Kari!

Hyvää päivää! Your nice words really warmed during yesterday's rainy dark night. Last night I celebrated, of course, with a glass of malt and it tasted really good :) Regards Anders

I was not that convinced about vintage Longines before this week, but hey: you guys changed my mine. A true friendly gesture on many fine vintages! Still, no Longines picture's the winner... The theme was not vintage watches, actually, but friendships - I...

Fred deserves such an award! Great verdict, mr RD72. [nt]

Sometimes, the wisdom of our judges . . .

. . . almost frightens me. Thanks for a most thoughtful decision!

A frightening judge is not a good judge, Don Arturo. ;) [nt]

Better frightening . . .

So many wonderful watches this week.... well as usual.... Must have been a tough one ! I'm aware true friendship involves real relationship, which is hard to get staying behind the computer screen... Looking forward to getting ready for the next step: a r...
