And we have a second judge verdict...

Hi Baron,
very tough call this time.....the wrist shots of sentimental pieces,sentimental for whatever reason,are tough to judge.
I must say that my honorable mentions are for 3 watch lovers,3 beautiful people I had the luck to meet ,3 people who mean what they say and wear it on their.....wrists....

Blomman unconditional love for all JLC things and his great ws on the Deep Sea Usa ,
Marcus Hanke unconditional love for Ulysse Nardin and his dusty Marine Diver shot,
AndrewD and his impeccable taste with his beloved Juorne TS.
3 GREAT EXAMPLES of love towards a certain brand/watch that has been reiterated many times here,that means real love,true survivors,quite in theme with this week WristScan.

WINNER though must be Tim Jackson s UN Blue Surf....the last picture of his beautiful historiated entry post,scarred with unconditional love,given to him by a huge dose of family love.....all great ingredients that make this watch a king in survivors watches....
His last Wrist shot is also a great picture,clear,crisp,oozing sentimental value ...a true keeper....
My Wrist shot of the week ,no doubt.

Yours,Mo

Congratulations Tim..... a very worthy winner indeed. In fact, I am sure many people would have made exactly the same call as Mo. Congrats

Judges for "Survivors" are...

MOC for Wristscan, Chris for Static and Marcus Hanke (PPro Moderator for UN and Zenith) for Watch of the Week. A truly tough call.....made no easier by the "Art Ruling" on heirlooms/sentimentality. I suspect I may be hard-pushed not to add a special award...

And we have one result in.....

And thank you for the honour! :) Best Blomman

Life has it's twists and turns, and through out it there are a few constants, anchor points if you will, that keep one focused on what is truly important and what is less so. I have been fortunate to create some great things in my life, these two young la...

Man, I get to announce all three before anyone comments!

Dear Joe, judging the watch of the week is difficult this time; many nice watches. My favourite, the Patek pocket watch, is not permitted, due to the rule to exclude heirloom pieces. I especially like pplater's Simplicity, and Ken's stunning Lange 1 Moon....

Your criteria is excellent, Marcus. Very well done, and congrats to Jed and Tim!

Thanks for the honor. It's doubly nice to share it with Tim.

Marcus, had I been a judge I would have gone with the Incursore. It was a great photo, and that's a watch I have always admired for its boldness, in much the same way I was drawn to Panerai when I first became aware. One note for the sake of candor: to th...

When we first met back in 2009, you were real. Since then we've got to know each other a little more, and I know I'm better off for knowing you. Love your story about the watch and the wedding day excitement! Cheers to you my friend! Have a great remainde...
