What do you think of that Laco?
Comfy? The lugs kind of throw me off though I've never had a chance to try one on or see one in person.
WristScan „Black & White“ July 19-21 starts now
Dear fellow purists, it’s my privilege to invite you to this week’s edition of WristScan with the theme Black & White. The idea is to share b/w shots of one or more timepieces, in case you don’t have any b/w shots ready: please take the effort to converti...
The Nico of Arabia strikes again 👍🏻
Great shots - I don’t think I have ever seen you do BW shots of this one 😊
Excellent choices for this week's theme..
And may i say I like that last shot the most
Doxa and a diver's shadow: o.k. ... a Seiko to a chopper from Vietnam???
... brings out Walter Sobchack in me: There is a clear connection to it. Don't listen to the Dude. He will deny a collection 😀! ...
Pattern of Time & Reflect.....
From 2017 and 2018 Pattern of Time, 2017 Reflect, 2018 ...
My trusty BB58.
As a certain Frenchman would say “ for the pleasure of your eyes”. Regards Kev. ...
It’s a great watch Nicolas.
My interest in watches goes back many years now and this is one of the best I’ve ever owned. Definitely a keeper. Regards Kev.
Thank you Nico ☺️
Big congratulations to your 200k+ postings. I have surely enjoyed reading and acquiring knowledge from you 🙏🏻
Thank you ☺️
Can’t take life too seriously sometimes (and this hobby as well), hence the profile photo 😬 You have beautiful B&W photos! The ‘fishy moment’ is stunning imo.
I like the first picture
Makes me dizzy and gives me vertigo 🙃 I was told Rolex watches especially the Sports range are back at worldwide boutiques 🤓 and that funny looking Pepsi GMT on Jubilee jubilant can be had at slightly lower than suggested retail $🤑 What u had seen in the ...
Hello dear Henrik! Nice to have you hosting this week end. Your B&W photography is breathtaking and inspiring! A great and challenging theme for sure. I expect...
... to view very interesting pictures along the week end from our participants. Will be sending mine later. I wish every body will enjoy this week end edition of our WS classic contest. Abel
Some B&W of the fume GP & Dynamic
From Italy: And the GP & it’s friends at home: Have a great weekend all. G. ...
Beautiful ghost 1016 👍🏻
Did u miss the pic of the lovely 1016 😅 My bad as the image did not show on my 🍎phone. Must have been due to Huawei attack 😬 Just kidding
Not your fault, but must be related to the US China thing...
...as I tried to upload the pic from a Beijing hotel room with an internet connection that's about half as fast as my 16kbps modem back in 1988. Surely Huawei infrastructure slowed down by Trump's henchmen ;-)
Fun challenge💣
A PAM372 ...in twilight ...and exposed to a black light A fishy moment And a reminder of the old days (before my son) when I actually had time to shoot ...
Your in fishy photo ...
Just blitzed WristScan this weekend, Congratulations !.... Can you tell us more about how you ay carambacame to take this photo ?
A good photographer never reveals his secrets🙊
Thankfully I am not so here it goes (even if costs me an illustrious victory in this week's Wrist Scan). The true accolades belong to a fantastic Japanese photographer who I admire named Hiro (Yasuhiro Wakabayashi). I own one of his books and simply place...
Some really wonderful pics so far from fellow Purists!
My humble Hamilton, simple but legible ...
If I may... A B&W Video
Here is a video submission. The tourbillon reminds me of a spaceship orbiting the earth which was perfect opportunuty for B&W Cartier Astrotourbillion: A Space Odyssey
I see what you mean about a spaceship orbiting Earth.
The video was a pleasant surprise. Very nice!
I think you've responded to my post by mistake.
I'm also a Memovox fan although I do not own one.
Fantastic theme, Henrick. B+W Zeitwerk, AP and VC checking in
I love your movement shot especially, Henrik Have a great weekend all! ...
Thank you Nicolas!!
The minute repeater would be TOPS... this is the humble striking time. best regards
Ok gang, here we go...! :)
Most of these are older photos, taken with a variety of devices from DSLR to mobile phone ...
I can't find the Black & White button on my Sony RX-10 iv!
What's a fellow to do? Cazalea
Converted
Hi A few few that have been converted to B&W. And finally a bit of a cheat. Just a hint of colour Cheers JML ...
Love the Poljot! Great watch
A 24-hour military Vostok was one of my very first mechanical watches
It isn’t much different in color...
Movado offered it a few years ago at about $3K retail and much less on the street. It should have been a big hit. No Zenith movement like the original, of course, but even if that were possible, it would have more than doubled the price. So, it has a 2894...
Hello dear Henrik! Great theme!! I love B&W photography...
... It has been said that "there is something strange and powerful in B&W photography" and as a matter of fact it gives an special mood to an scene. We are presently so much acustomed to view pictures in full color, but to going back to basics of photogrp...
Some beautiful pictures!!
The black and whites are really artistic and even Iconic, the Doxa looks like a wrist sculpture. I have a few to share. Best to all. ...
Thank you so much Timerider! Glad you like my shots! You are sharing some stunning watches and shots here as well! Thank you ...
... For your great participation! Hagwe! Abel
What do you think of that Laco?
Comfy? The lugs kind of throw me off though I've never had a chance to try one on or see one in person.
Thank you for asking Thegrailwatch! The Laco is a lot of watch for its price and quality...
... And though agree with you the lugs are a bit akward looking the design follows the original design and wears comfortable as it is not a very big watch nor heavy. Im very happy with it. You should try it on your wrist though and feel it. You can choose...
Abel, your Doxa looks superb in the photos !...
In B&W it looks like an original photo from the late sixties 👌
Back in '58, this one . . .
. . . would've been photographed . . . . . . in b&w. Art ...
That she is, Nicolas, and equally fetching . . .
. . . in color. White Connie is probably the most photogenic watch in my collection. Easy to get a good pic every time . . . ...
