. . . CH9698!

"Hi Art,

Here is my judgement for this week's WOTW.  As usual, very tough to make a decision.

Let me give a honourable mention to Padj for that thing he showed . . .




. . . and made us smile.  Great interpretation of the theme.

Now, the WOTW was tough, but I decided to award that to CH9698 . . .




. . . and his Rolex Comex.  A very special watch that is the essence of a Diver and a very understandable choice to pick as his last watch.

Thanks to all participants and entries and congrats to CH9698 for winning the WOTW.

CC"

Thanks, CC.  Curiously, my candidate for WotW would've been Abel's similar Rolex classic . . .




. . . for a slightly different reason: it's not only a vintage classic, but it aged right alongside him . . . almost like celebrating a 40th anniversary.
