WristScan

Sometimes we like them simple, sometimes complex. So the theme this week is your favorite complication(s) or your favorite complication combination. I will post mine in a separate post imminently and in the meantime I am very much looking forward to yours...  

2017 Daytona, 1996 Speedy Racing JDM, 1974 Seiko 6139 ...  

I love the variety.

Chronographs we’re the complication that finally got me into this hobby and onto WPS now more than 8 years ago 😊 And some truly cool choices you have made and posted 🙌🏻👌🏻👏🏻

...  

Reminding me to look for one myself 😉 Fantastic shot, too 👌🏻

… some awesome shots/watches from the participants! My favorite complications are: 1) Chronographs 2) Moon phase 3) World Timer Here a few favorites of my collection below. Have a great weekend my dear friend KM!! Cheers! Abel Breguet 3800 Aeronavale Spee...  

Of the kind we have come to expect from you 👏🏻 And while your collection is strong in every area, the chronographs appear to be a tad stronger still 😊 And wasn’t aware you also had the P15 👏🏻👍🏻

I began my collecting journey with chronographs which I find they are fascinating watches. Yes I got the P15 which I deeply love. Hagwe my dear friend! Abel

And I also joined in with a P15 😁

… our beloved P15!! Cheers! Abel

Your Longines is amazing. So pure, so real horology. Not to ignore the fabulous Omega AT world timer. Did i see a fabulous Speedy? yes. great chronograph.

Cheers! Abel

Good that there is difference. Speedmasters are for me not as special like Seamasters. But i have a few favorite Speedmasters that should be great if i can enrich my watch collection with. The new Snoopy anniversary Speedmaster is my number 1. A golden Sp... 

... different type than a Speedy. Those Speedys you mention in your wish list are top options. I am surprised about the price reached by a Silver Snoopy in last week auction: 50,000.00 plus US$ for a current production watch whose retail price is under 10... 

I am happy a Seamaster do not touched the moon. Lucky me Speedmasters are not my choice. But the CK859 is popular, so i guess i can not get my hands on that watch anymore.

. . . 'carpet bombing'.

That plane shot was taken at the amusement park at the top of Tibidabo Mount in Barcelona. I enjoyed riding it with my grandchildren a couple of years ago. It doesn’t really fly but it’s very enjoyable anyway . Glad you liked the shot! Hagwe! Abel

.. such as the JLC Geophysic Universal Time & PP 5510G, the Zenith Cronometro CP-2, just to name these three.. for this time; but there are several others, as we both know meanwhile, which underlines in a nice way similiar tastes & interests. - Re... 

... well say. Let me say that in spite I deeply love my modern Breguet Type 20 Aeronavale, it´s far from the beauty and attractive of your vintage chrono. What a piece!! I´m always happy to know you like my choices even if I can´t refrain from posting too... 

Your Omega Cosmic and 6238 are my fav! Have a restful weekend dear Abel!

Everyone has something special going for it. I particularly love the 6238 Pre Daytona, beautiful !

All entries are top and it is hard to pick one only. If I had to, then it would be your lovely VC chrono, which is an absolute stunning watch!

I do like a nice or amazing complication. Lets give a few examples Regulator Moon face Wondering hours Jumping hours Retrograde Tourbillon Remontoire And some Crazy Hours 🤪 Hagwe my friends 🤗 ...  

If there is one thing you are famous for apart from independents, it has to be complications - and in many cases the two go truly hand in hand 👌🏻 Epic shots, all, but the VH Regulator is my favorite of yours this weekend 👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻

Love the Remontoire and that lovely VH Regulator ! Bravo !! - Cheers !!

Thank you for sharing your beauties! Hagwe! Abel

I love them all. GEO

The Remontoire is superb.

While i have no favorite, i’m on to discover what will be my choice. I collect more on how a watch has build. The material, the crown shape, glass bends, lug shape and form. Useful complication is the gmt and perpetual calendar i collect specific a watch ...  

And superbly accurate, too! Looking forward to finding out where your journey will take you 😊🤞🏻

It is my watch i use to set my mechanical watches right when i wound them. The idea to skip a computer for setting my watches is adjust a watch with a watch. The GMT hand gives my Conquest a playful touch. A Smart watch with real hands, better than a disp... 

Well think you can have both - so not unexpectedly here's a few alarms, although I think I probably preempted myself with an earlier post on Home . Though, there is a second complication I'm rather struck by - power reserve, especially with a splash of re...  

The red dash PRs are a bit of a surprise 😁 Two great complications, certainly and a raft of superb shots, too 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Underrated and very useful.

I actually prefer them at the back of the watch 😉👍🏻

So here are some of my favorites… When it comes to complications it’s simple for me - chronographs come top. While I love my watches time only (let’s call that the non-complication) and have many collecting themes (hi-beat, ultra thin…), chronographs do i...  

We had them made with custom dials for our wedding anniversary (no prizes for guessing which one) 😉 The beauty of independents is that even regular people get to express wishes 😁

My personal favs are the Seiko with the pink indices, the Seiko SpringDrive and of course the Habrings, a love for their dedicated watchmakers‘ skill & pleasure towards what they create. HAGWE &

The chronographs are eclectic indeed 😊 As for the Habrings, they are as lovely to spend time with as their watches 😊👍🏻

... allows for some playing or interaction with our watches which I feel so nice to have on my wrist. As usual you show your watches with some stunning and great taste combos of straps which makes a delight to view. Great Theme you choose! Thank you so mu... 

It is a complication I have always been fascinated by and I felt a small selection would be in order. Glad you like them 😊

I love them !

An excellent GMT imo is the Tudor “Pepsi” BB GMT. It was my companion on a few vacations and daily wear for some time. My older son loved it so I gave it to him last year as a graduation gift. Here is a wrist-shot with my son taken today. KM and everyone ...  

And a very nice GMT complication there 👌🏻

but my Ressence Type 2 should qualify, or do we see it as a time-only? ...  

Such a novel way of displaying time and so well executed, too 👌🏻

Superb choice Geo.

HAGWE Wakey Wakey Big Date 💪 ...  

And certainly a wonderful, if alarming other entry 😉 Love your style of adding complications in an understated way 👏🏻

…and for running this weekends WristScan. Appreciated 🙏👊🍻

…me too. Nice size, wears well 👊

... my Edo Index-Mobile watch: Prof. Schaldenbrand added only nine or so parts to a mundane Landeron chrono caliber and made it to a split second. This coil on the dial attached to a chrono hand, next to some parts of the movement, makes it a spli second ...  

With so few parts and some on dial side? Fabulous and ingenious 👍🏻👏🏻 And the name is sublime 👌🏻 Thanks for the kind words, too!

Awesome feature the extra spring on dial side! I love chronos as I have stated before and split seconds ones are more fascinating yet! Thank you so much for sharing my dear friend Moritz! Hagwe! Abel

The "only" inconvenience is that you have to press the pusher in the crown all the time, inorder to halt the ss hand. If you come off from the pusher, the spring will make the ss hand catch up with the other hand again. I am pleased you like the watch dea... 

and an interesting choice, well played !

My humble personal complication/ indication is the „Alarm on Arm“: - JLC Memovox A partial view into the Memovox watchbox: Middle: From left: E 855 black & 855 white („Ebene dial); E 875 blue/blue, white/blue & all white/silver Far right: E 861 Top (cross...  

And it’s hard to choose a favorite, with so many sublime pieces offered. By a small margin I would say your Duometre tugs at the heartstrings most this weekend though. Enjoy the weekend and glad you could join!

HAGWE & Cheers !

So all healthy and together - as for really well, that will take a while I guess 😊🤷🏻‍♂️

Shows the variety of a single complication by just one brand. Cheers JML

I really like the warmth of your charming JLC triple cal and Breguet Type XX!

HAGWE & Best !!

As in other opportunities you are sharing watches I also own, and some I would Love to own! Lol! You always keep me drooling when viewing your vintage Breguet chrono, and your JLC Durometre chronographe. Superb!! You make very difficult to make a choice o... 

Enjoy your remaining WE and your own selected treasures.. .. and Cheers !

Have a nice weekend. Best cordial regards Abel
