Hello dear KM! Thank you so much for the honor of judging Best Wrist Scan Category and big congrats for a great hosting and theme this week end.

Answering your challenging theme brought many wonderful shots in all categories but as is usually happens in our editions WS category brings many superb entries which make so difficult to choose a winner.


Here goes my veredict:

I would like to award Very Special Mentions (VSM) to the following:

KMII set the stick very high with his shots for each category and he deserves a VSM for his shot:






Another VSM for Myles and his beautiful shot of his Sea Master Chrono in his element:







Also Brandon shared an awesome surfing shot selfie while wearing his Armida Bronzo. This shot would have received the First place if watch could be seen better but nobody could blame Brandon here as it would be impossible to capture a watch along all this action. A superb shot indeed.






It is no surprise that Nicolas brings some stunning shots in every edition of WS. Both the watches, places and use of lightning make his shots so recognizable as coming from Amanico. This week end was no exception and here a clear example:
His very rare JLC US Navy Seals Alarm "anonimo" shot in a charming sea side surroundings:




I may be a bit biassed but I canΒ΄t let pass this shot from Art/Dr. No of his lovely Omega Marine while playing pool. A watch I love so much and a shot which I award a VSM too.



Now I awarded winning places to:

Third place for Tony/Aperna cool wrist-pocket shot showing his classy Up Down Lange with casual elegance pose of his hand inside pocket.







Second Place for Brauner who always take us to exotic and far places in this edition with his shot of his Sinn chrono during some kind of ritual or dance (may be in some Pacific Island Ocean??)
A very interesting shot indeed.







And first place goes to:

Captain Scarlet and his stunning Bruce Gilden style shot of his no less stunning Pam 252 GMT North Pole Panerai which probably was shot along a blizzard during one of his Artic special missions. wink
A superb and intriguing close shot I felt.


Big congrats to all winners and to all participants for their superb entries!!

I wish a very nice and safe week ahead to all our friends here!!

Best cordial regards, Abel.
