WristScan

As mentioned on Wednesday, this month’s WS theme is ‘Behind the Wheel’. As cars (and other modes of transportation with a similar steering principle) seem to be almost as desirable to most members as watches, the combination seemed a natural fit. Whether ...

But thanks for the kind words 🙏🏻

Thanks for sharing ! 👍🏻

Or perhaps my memory is just failing. In any case it is a wonderful timepiece you have captured in these two shots in all its beauty. Thanks a lot for your hosting and enjoy a nice weekend my friend. Will return later with my shots. Cheers, Abel

The LUC 8HF has been in the collection for a while and I probably posted it several times - but not sure if here at WS 😊

And I was extremely happy when I did 😁

like the 1972... Best, Emmanuel

.. other than that I love your L.U. Chopard 8Hz Chronometer - what an eclectic, yet splendid watch ‼️ Also enjoyed your Ming specimens, already makes a real focus withn your collection, I trust. Although I myself didn‘t have a lot to contribute this time,... 

I hope your home redecorating went as planned and that you can enjoy some well deserved downtime now 😊👍🏻 And thanks for the kind words - the LUC 8HF is truly an unusual- yet at least to me - fascinating piece 👍🏻

The VC, the Amvox, the Franck Muller. 🙏

The car studio is often the simplest way to make a shot of one is too lazy to put real effort in 😉

Some inspiration pics... tho just cars. ...  

But where did you leave the watches? 😉

Tho i did wear the Bell&Roos very first release BR03-92, very handy at the track and easy to read. Funny thing is, she's now 18 years old, been subjected to over 30 races including some very harsh rain conditions... never serviced(!)... and still keeps gr...  

And as you said - impeccable legibility and necessary robustness 🦾

For period correctness, the car would need to be in Guards Red 😁🎈

Three On Three When I purchased these shoes, I didn’t realize the colors matched. Fun color combo The Brumos livery on the 70’s era Porsche bonnet looks nice in my garage. I do love an after market strap. Classic Casio Not a typical diving watch Sold this...  

And the watch / car / sneaker combo is 🙌🏻😊

And I love the vintage hood mounted in your garage wall 👍🏻

Those shoes are so cool Larry, matched perfectly to your watch. Well done on this Wrist Scan theme! 👍🏻

I love the 70’s era Porsche bonnet 👌

like the Polar and Monaco. Best, Emmanuel

Just a few quick ones. The shifter and Roundel are from my very first BMW, a 2008 328 with Sport Pack. The OEM shifter was too tall so I replaced with the pictured short throw sport knob. When I turned it in for another 3 series, the Roundel somehow poppe...  

Thanks for looking!

All the elements for pleasure 👌

I can very much relate to the connection that you described for the 328 - cars tended to be more - dunno - emotionally connected back in the day 😊

Best, Emmanuel

Dear friends, Good to hear at WristScan with a few shots for our automotive theme …. The GTO … Classic Jaguar …. Pure joy … Back later friends ! Best Captain ...  

love all of those!

I’ll take that from a fellow petrolhead. Best Captain

Hagwe my dear friend. Abel

Three heavy hitters both from the automotive and horological perspective 🦾👍🏻

Best, Emmanuel

These Nautilus shots are like paintings. They look fantastic!

Cool shot !

Some days are so breezy, it feels like the lyrics from that Prince song - 'I was busy doing something close to nothing'.... 🤘😎 ...  

Looks good! Cheers.

nice pic!

So far! 😁🙏🥂

Being that if you don’t drive around it, you simply drive over it 😂

I wish the client was more 'open' to experiences of that nature ....

just the kids in the back, but it's actually a She, and she's far better known in Europe than in the US - that's why she lives here ....

You reminded me of a funny story. Not naming names but in a company I was closely acquainted with there were two colleagues in one country organization that did not at all get along. As performance was suffering they decided to meet up for dinner after wo... 

In her instance, there is quite literally no better known motorsport brand than the one her father created! Not only does she not like being driven remotely fast, she actually gets nauseous - the ultimate ironies of life........ 😉

That’s true, though - the ironies of life. Niki Lauda once said his most stressful time has always been in Brazil - more specifically the taxis there. The taxi drivers would universally recognize him and then try to prove how good they were and hence driv... 

Balkans x). By the way, my ethnic brother, you are so on the nose with who my client is, all I'll add is that she is half Serbian as well (which I'm sure improved my chances of getting the job in the first place), and her dad is the MacDaddy of the fastes...
