Dig deep, guys 'n gals - it's "Cream . . .
. . . of the Crop" week. Pick three of the best from your files.
Black Connie's nearly impossible to image, and wrist shots are impossible. Here's my best effort, from March 13th, 2013:
In my next life, I want to be Nilo, 'cause he's the only guy I know who owns a fourth-gen Omega central. Obviously, this one's not mine, nor is the wrist . . .
. . . but at least I can claim the photo, taken Feb 24th, 2016.
The Karree PanoDate has been in my possession for nearly ten years, and I've taken hundreds of snaps, but the only one that totally captures the dial . . .
. . . is this one taken June 27th, 2016.
In addition to the usual Wrist, Static, and WotW categories, there will be a special award for Technical Achievement handed out this week.
Let's see your top three, folks.

Here I go ...
Let's see what I could dig from my photo library. One from each brand that I like: IWC Aquatimer Bronze Omega Constellation (Omega and rusty): Jaeger-LeCoultre Amvox 7 A great weekend to all, Nilo ...
Nicolas might've favored the JLC . . .
. . . due to natural inclination, but I'm also more drawn to that image amongst the three you've shared on purely aesthetic grounds. Thanks for sharing, Nilo!
My favorite is the one ...
Of the IWC Aquatimer Bronze (Charles Darwin homage) with the Iguana. The B&W Iguana and the Bronze color were totally unexpected. Cheers, Nilo
How you managed to get that watch on that iguana is a story you will have to tell.
I like that shot best as well.
Three winning candidates right there, Nilo :)
Now I am wondering why I posted anything this week anyway
Don't be so humble ...
Your pictures, as many other participants here, are gorgeous. Cheers, Nilo
Stunning shots dear Nilo!! Very hard to chose just one of them! The iguana shot is striking and ...
... intriguing indeed! Hagwe my friend! Abel
That first shot of the IWC Aquatimer with the iguana is simply stunning !!!
Result is perfect with prope lighting and nice bokey, well done again Nilo The other ones are not bad either ...
I've could taken...
ones that were weekly winners but I opted for one from each of my favorite brands and one for technical achievement at least in my eyes Cheers and HAGWE friends Best D GP - Green Lantern meets friend Zenith - Captain Nemo Seiko - Wooden Monster ...
That Zenith image highlights the reflective seconds marker ring, an artifact . . .
. . . that could easily be lost at a slightly different angle. Bravo, D!
Agree with the nice smiling Froggy: Green is beautiful!! though...
... that Captain shot with shells I love too! Hagwe my dear friend Damjan! Abel
It is going to be futile this week, but here are my 3
I can see some of the serial winners posting some bombshells, so let's say participating is everything. My personal top 3 I took: Girard-Perregaux Olimpico 9245, taken this summer. Girard-Perregaux Railtimer, just because.... And I could not have left out...
I just saw that. Excellent choice 😉
I think you should open a new thread yes. Best wishes Alkiro
The odds on the Mayweather / McGregor fight are right around . . .
. . . 500 - 1. And most of the money is on Mayweather. Here's hoping for an upset, if only to remind us that the unexpected can - and often, does - happen. ;-)
Railtimer is awesome.. John Harrison is a mesmerizing experience + so much pleasure on the wrist !
Thx again, for having given me the chance to wear it a bit & play with it ! All splendid choices, my friend ! Best, hs.
That HF rail timer is just killer
Such a cool watch! And a great photo. The other two are great of course but the rail timer just plucks my heart strings!
The JH dial is so beautiful! :)
Need to see this one in the metal... Soon! Best Blomman
I have relatively few shots of my watches on my wrist...
but I'll join in any case. Cheers, Tony C. ...
Agreed with Nicolas (again!) - your F-L . . .
. . . is compelling, and then some. It's one of those manufacturers that I should be more aware of, like Eterna and Movado. Good to see you here again, Tony.
Great choices, Tony !.. That Favre Leuba is a rare bird, with a strong presence.. The AP elegant.. But..
.. not to forget your Ingenieur, which I would apply for any time ! Bravo & Best, hs
Thanks Blomman!
I might have a similar one available in the not too distant future... All the best, Tony C.
Let's go!
"My precious" - A. Lange & Söhne Emil Lange "Into the wild" - A. Lange & Söhne Zeitwerk "50 shades of..." - A. Lange & Söhne Emil Lange Best wishes Alkiro ...
Another three brilliant choices...
If I was to choose - the middle one is the clear favourite for me
Many thanks my friend
We'll see if our three judges will be as kind as you 😊 Best wishes Alkiro
Sunday :)
I hope the candidates do not leave their respected countries prior to the verdict
I'm not even bothering to enter after that.
The first shot should be a poster for PuristS.
