The WS for the 4th of February - ‘Winter Olympic Sports’ - is live
I hope everyone has the potential side effects of last week’s Crown and Hands session well under control by now and punctually for the start of the winter sporting season today the new theme will be ‘Winter Olympic Sports’.
Whatever you associate with sports, watches and winter is on! The timeline is as always running from now till ca. 17 GMT on Sunday and judges for the three categories, Wristshot, Static and WotW will be announced later during the weekend.
Here are some of mine. I have unfortunately not managed to go skiing this winter but hopefully soon 🤞🏻 So the sport aspect is somewhat muted but there’s snow aplenty to compensate!
Looking forward to seeing your entries and wishing you a great winter weekend !

Good theme ! …
After last weekend at the Crown & Hands we could all do with a little sporting exercise. It’s a little chilly out here 🥶 ...
Great then this week! Perfect timing as we are having a small snow storm today ⛈
Fear not, the Explorer is! ...
Yeah It’s ridiculous how mesmerizing that dial is.
I’ve been wasting time away just staring at the thing lol!
Hmmhh.. Let me see how to play..
MIH - Less is more.. Love that austere look Not sure if this is allowed, as it is a 2nd watch - Railmaster CK 2914-2 (Pls - Note: if not allowed by this week’s rules - simply just disregard this entry.. ) HAGWE & Best, hs. ...
No limitations in terms of numbers this weekend HS111 😊
I forgot that you like to engage in winter sports in warmer climates 😁 Love the choices made - could easily handle a bit of ice and snow, too 👌🏻👏🏻
Cricket , golf & rugby - not forgetting Polo
Well I definitely don't play polo & the rest are about as close as I get to any other sport + winter or otherwise HAGWE Cheers JML ...
You and me are in the same boat 😂
I have also not really been an active participant for a while, although I resumed skiing last winter after a long hiatus. Might try today, if I gather enough energy 😂 Love the shots from sporting events - fitting the theme wonderfully 👌🏻
Sub Zero 😎 An old snow shot as we don’t get much nowadays
Enjoy your weekend ladies and gentlemen 🍻 ...
Oldie but goldie!
We have had so much snow this winter like I cannot remember since childhood ❄️ Great shot you made 👌🏻
Hi KM…
I just wanted to say that your Grand Seiko Silver Birch looks great, especially on the strap you have chosen. Is this a recent one in your collection ?
Got it last year…
So been with me for a while. As for strap I accidentally found out about a strap maker actually making a birch strap, so decided to give it a try 😁 Here a more classical choice: ...
I thought it looked like a birch finish on the strap …
It looks superb, is it comfortable ?
Very much so, let me try to get a better picture of it 👍🏻
When it gets a bit lighter 😊
Great series, dear KMII. The GS has just the perfect dial for the snow...
Looking forward to a great BJ Winter Olympics ...
Wonderful wintery shots ❄️👌🏻
And just added a Birch on snow shot in response to Captain Scarlet’s question above 😊👍🏻
Very good theme, dear KMII!
What could be better for the just started Winter Olympics in Bejing as my Omega Semaster Bejing, although in a summer environment: Truly yours, Adam ...
Fantastic choice, Adam!
The colored 10 minute markers for the Olympic Rings is a fantastic touch 👏🏻👌🏻
Hello dear friend KM!! My times skying are long gone…
… and I had little opportunity to take shots of my watches in snow or winter sports. Willing to participate I choose just a few shots taken in snow or winter environment. Have a wonderful weekend dear KM and friends!! Abel ...
Doxa is an excellent snow choice 👌🏻
Any reason why you gave up skiing? In my case there was a super long absence as well but then last year I was bringing my daughter to her ski lessons regularly and at some point thought ‘Why not?’ Haven’t regretted it since 😉 ...
Thanks a lot for your kind comments dear friend KM. Regarding skying... My family and me used to spend many winters vacationing in a Sky Center here in my Country till our children growed...
... and formed their own families. Then Life took us to other travels to different places and we kept far from sky places. No special reason, but just following different paths and interests. My son and daughter and their families are still skiing and tea...
Great and big 😂
Thanks for the story Abel. Was more or less similar with me for a long time and I am happy to have found a chance to restart it 😊👍🏻
My pleasure to share dear KM! I’m happy to know…
… you had the chance to restart and how nice to be able to introduce your childs to this fantastic sport! Keep enjoying so much my dear friend! Abel
Doxa on (frozen) water 🥶…
Possibly the ultimate “tough” watch. Excellent choice and great photos dear friend.
Thank you so much Stoikos! That shot was made some years…
… ago in Queens, New York in the grounds of the 1964/65 Universal Expo. That was the US Steel Globe still standing there together with some buildings of that Fair. Appreciate your comments! Cheers! Abel
Lovely shot!
..the pattern reminds me of curling! That’s definitely a winter sport so you’re good 😊
Is pool a . . .
. . . winter sport? Well, if it is, then whatever I'm wearing is the watch I associate winter sports with. Today, that watch happens to be my personal . . . . . . "Miracle on Ice". ...
