In Honor and Memory of our dear Captain Scarlet
We have just lost a key and very dear member of our community. What a sad and painful loss! To honor his memory , here are the three watches from his collection that he himself selected for the Wrist Scan edition of July 2024 dedicated to " The Special On...
This is incredibly sad š¢
I am devastated to hear the news. He was a pillar of the community and the lifeblood not only of the Wristscan forum but of WPS more generally over many years. He will be sorely missed! His generosity, kindness, knowledge and passion for things horologica...
Yes, it's terribly sad.
Even I, a relatively new member of WPS, feel what a huge loss this is for us. That's why I couldn't imagine posting anything other than a tribute to him today. And of course, I am thinking of his family and friends with the greatest sympathy. Best, Emmanu...
And many others
(Prestige de le France, 5905/1A, 5168G, Roger Dubuis Much More, Daytona, Speedy Moonshine, etc.). That is why I preferred to stick to the three that he himself chose as the jewels of his collection.
Thatās made me cry
Thank you so many memories with the fabulous man that chose to spend 42 years with me š
I am so deeply sorry for your loss.
Please accept my warmest condolences. I truly hope that the memories of all the moments you shared with him, which remain indestructible despite his passing, will bring you some comfort in this painful time of grief. With all my heart, I am with you. And ...
I can easily imagine the immense void left by his passing.
This is of course no consolation, but great sorrow is a sign of great love and of a wonderful relationship, which is more precious than anything... We are truly with you in spirit and with all our hearts.
Yes, and several other watches...
We will miss this very friendly member and refined collector very much. Best, Emmanuel
