WristScan

Hello dear fellow purist! This week-end I have the pleasure of hosting our WristScan. The theme this week-end is: WristTime, or more precisely, Competing for you WristTime! The idea is for you to share with us: 1- what watch in your collection is grabbing...  

since i basically reset 100% of my collection in the last 14 months or so I can say that most of my watches are getting similar wristtime. That was not the case before! Focusing only on my current collection then, two of them stand out to get more wrist t...  

We have very similar thoughts on our collections and how we use them. The Lange and Tudor are an excellent combination to enjoy and switch between on a daily basis depending on how we feel and the location. As for Panerai I use several different models bu... 

... my city. We are fortunate to have the choice for every occasion or place! Cheers! Abel

our friend “Q” could modify it to make it very safe in the right hands 😉 ...  

Your L&S and BB58c are gorgeous and I do agree with you about wishing to avoid drawing unnecessary attention (with the exception of other enthusiasts and friends/family). I am sure your PAM may reignite that feeling again in the future! Your Explorer 2 is... 

... fully connect with your anonimo Pam. I thought you liked it so much as per your sharing it in previous posts. But I can understand that too, because it happens me all the time. Some watches we get to love more than others, some of them so deeply. Othe... 

If it does not, then it become a possible target for divestiture ! Cheers Abel

This has not always been the case as until I found out the type of watches I like (of course I like several type) there was a lot more turnover in them

... tastes or the course of our collecting. Main thing is to get the most enjoyment from the pieces we own whichever the quantity, brands or models. Cheers! Abel

Cheers Thomas

The watch that got the most wrist time lately is this great collaboration LE/VH Here two watches i need to wear more but for some reason I always pick something else when i need to choose before i go The watch i so love but unfortunately don’t wear that m...  

Looking exceptionally cool on your wrist this weekend..

This interesting theme and my thoughts on the watches in my collection grabbing the most Wrist Time. This is something that changes, influenced by clothing, places and seasons. Twice this week … Yesterday’s choice… On my wrist today … I’ll be back later w...  

...  

. . . my watches receive. There's forty that get roughly equal time now. Can't say there's one that gets more wrist time than the others, but there are a few that get short changed precisely because they're so precious. I've owned this Ω ref 2364 30T2rg c...  

Every-time i add a watch I aim to achieve just that in the long run! Cheers

. . . between all the watches in my collection. Precious metals aren't really suited for everyday wear, so I tended to skip over them in the past, but I've been making a conscious effort to rotate thru recently. That's why you've been seeing the Centenary... 

How you have managed to use so many of your watches. I really need to increase the rotation of my regular selection. Your 2364 30T2rg chronometer looks very cool.

... the Flightmaster I remembered my Friendship FM and feel I haven´t given the wrist time it deserves lately. Will get mine next week on my wrist again! Hagwe my dear friend. A big Hug for you! Best, Abel

for obvious - if not shallow! - reasons. Just arrived today 😊 ...  

And this one gets the least wrist time. It’s quite a digression from most of my watches - and right now is with Bvlgari for service so I’ll make a point of wearing it when it comes back - hopefully in April. ...  

Superb Moser, congratulations !

...  

I’m loving the clear lacquer logo 👍

This Moser PC is a very special piece with definitely an unique design. Many congrats! Thomas

I got this direct from Moser so suspect it’s one of the first shipments as they indicated Q1 2022 for availability back when I spoke with them in October.

I like the very reduced design. Here my Purity: Yours has the big advantage to fit in all life situations. A sports watch with a good WR and in steel. Great! ...  

this since it arrived in late Dec. All of my other watches are sitting in boxes since then. I'll probably go back to them at some point, but now that I have ordered a custom strap for the Zeit, it'll be a while ... ...  

It deserves a long honeymoon. Your other watches are jealous i guess

What strap have you ordered to go with it ?

olive Minerva Box leather strap, from a small local (Canadian) shop ... should be here any day now!

For me the most beautiful ZW. Cheers Thomas

The first is the Patek I mentioned to you in response to another post yesterday, the one who's probably been getting the most wrist time in total since I purchased it nearly 13 years ago! The 5167 is one of the most versatile Pateks in the entire catalog,...  

I completely agree with you about the 5167 being one of the most versatile Pateks, in fact it’s probably one of the most versatile watches ever made. Best regards Captain

this 5167 really looks fantastic on your wrist. Seems like made for you. Your choices are very interesting for me given the other watches you have in your collection. Cheers Thomas

Hi guys. My first time joining you in this feature. This month I have been alternating between the Omega watches in the pic. There are models from the 70s, 80s, 90s & current day in there. The Seamaster with the black dial has been replaced as my favourit...  

and interesting to see them all lined up. Difficult to beat a Speedmaster.

Thank you. I removed the bracelet on the Speedmaster a few months back to take out some links. Having done that I couldn't re-attach it & gave up. A lad that works in an Omega AD explained to me the technique involved in re-attaching the bracelet & I did ... 

I just love a good Speedmaster ! Good to have you with us for WristScan.

Hello dear friends ! One of the watches that gets the least wrist time is my Zenith Montre d'Aéronef Type 20, otherwise known as “The Beast”. I have genuine affection for this watch and wouldn’t dream of passing it on. The reasons why it doesn’t get a lot...  

Currently, I seem to be coming to this GS SLGH005 on a daily basis because the dial, new case, & versatility. The Skydweller is my favorite because of sentimental value but not worn out much because too flashy for my line of work. I do give it a wind week...  

And like you i am also conscious not to wear my Rolex in some work condition! Thanks for participating!

Very nice combo.

Looks so good and is tempting me 😱

I’m going to try one as soon as I get the chance.

With more dial options.

this GS SLGH005 with this strap looks amazing. Great pic! Cheers Thomas

... It is specially challenging the answer when a collection is large or considering certain characteristics of our watches. I mean... there are watches I love so much like my Speedmaster Moonshine which I would like to wear more often but which I rarely ...  

For your kind comments and for remembering my CV Vacheron. Yes, this is a watch I love so much that I can were all year around. Truth is that owning a large collection gives a lot of joy and satisfaction but also has its drawback: wearing them in a rotati...  

Cheers my friend!
