WristScan

Hello dear Friends! Wrist Scabn is open and you may post in this same thread! As announced last Wednesday I will have the pleasure of hosting this week end edition and I am inviting our members to participate sharing with us their Grail Watches. We are sp...  

Life is funny! As a collector of vintage jumbo manual-wind time-only (JMWTO) watches, with jumbo being defined as 36mm and up,it's often harder to find these. Especially for vintage VC and PP. Jumbo VC's are a bit more common than jumbo PP's, but they're ...  

These are two marvellous pieces which I can feel makes you very happy! Keep enjoying and loving them and good luck with your hunting for your third Grail!! Hagwe! Abel

is a journey and not a destination. This is something that I have learnt along the way. So many “stops” on this journey and these are just a few to share with you this weekend. Great theme Abel. ...  

Some Lovely Grails you share! Didn´t know there was a 6238 Pre Daytona in you collection! That´s a most charming timepiece I love so much! I just wonder what could came next in your list! But these are things that can make for an interesting chat next tim... 

and hopefully time for many more enjoyable stops along the way. I hope to have the opportunity to share them in good health with you my dear friend.

... of good health my dear friend! Best! Abel

I know that you appreciate my sentiment on this subject.

Smoked mackerel Daytona 😮

Have a great weekend 🥂

Its all about the journey imho .

Have a great weekend.

Of course Nautilus Chrono but the Lemania is an absolute heart breaker ! Best, Mahesh.,

The Lemania “Nuclear Sub” is definitely a cool watch.

Here are some of mines. I am definitely a lucky collector. ...  

... and I´m very happy for you. All of them ar superb examples of its class. I specially love the FF vintage which I have been lusting for long. I agree completely with your definition of Grail. Thank you so much for sharing Grails and thoughts! Hagwe! Ab... 

... you will let me try one of them during my next visit! Buen fin de semana amigo mio! Abel

"No. Thank you. I have got an alarm watch. It is an automatik." I cannot forget that scene! I was laughing in silence because that woman would most probably know nothing or not much about watches. I certainly knew what you were meaning 😀. Top pieces!!! ... 

About a friend that made a big mistake using a hotel phone 😉

Needs to be told after dinner one night.

I.csn only yearn at all your grail.

Grail definition. Not available for judging on this Patek Not available for judging Best to all, Tim ...  

... all of them, but I´m specially in love with your salmon dial Breguet and your Lange Datograph. Breathtaking timepieces!! Glad you found your Grails and I wish you you´ll get the other ones in a near future! Hagwe my friend! Abel

The PP World Timer is über cool.

most of them are THE absolute grail (that couldn't be obtained) for me you definitely a lucky collector, my friend and i'm lucky enough to join this forum & be able to look at your pictures of those grail watches. cheers

just like my JLC Reverso rouge ...  

... agree with you: it is a Masterpiece. But why you wouldn´t wear it ?? That´s part of the beauty of collecting timepieces: we can wear Masterpieces like this in our wrists. Not doing so means not enjoying them at full I feel. The Reverso Rouge is a char... 

it's more convenient

... an important classic watch this way, but if leather is the reason not to wear it, I would do it. Your Breguet is a true beauty which deserves to be worn, and you as an owner deserve to enjoy (no matter the straps!). That´s my view of course. This is a... 

Definitely one for a collection 🙏

Seamaster PO Chrono (I also own Speedmasters) is the watch… But more importantly it is the brand ethos that really matters. Is there provenance? Do they really make the best gear?… Or is it all for show? Do they stand behind their products?… What is their... 

...  

Fiting to your definition to the dot

The start of an Omega collection ?

the Seamaster PO 2500 movement. This is a beater that I wear over my parka when I’m snowboarding etc. I love collections but tend not to collect. Having said that I LOVE the Omega Roulette Seamaster (the one with the football timer on it) the Kennedy Tank...  

IMHO every piece I get is a grail. I never knew whether I can get it or not. (due to rarity or specific limited number or other reason). Most of all due to limited budget, I have to always ask myself, is it another true love or just passion and desire.

While love, passion and desire are part of our game... Always! May be you can share some of your Grails with us? Hagwe! Abel

There is thin line differentiating passion and stupidly in love 🤣🤣

I fully agree with them and thats why most of my watches are ,,grails,,imho . I am proud to own them and most of them tell a particular story as well . So its hard to just pick one or two to post here . Will pic a few but at no particular order. I don’t w...  

... your Grail Watches! I can well understand your point. All these superb watches are true Grails for us!! Keep enjoying them so much!! Hagwe! Abel

Hagwe! Abel

Love the Chronometer Contemporain and the bespoke Kudoke!

each of them have a very different character

A very well thought out and impressive collection!

Love the Gronefeld, Mosewr and amazing Vianney Halter. GEO

That’s a whole new thing. A fabulous and well thought out collection.

The firsts bunch are Gshock. I couldnt post it now
