Absolutely agree with you Bill! These sets of hands by Rolex are true trend setters. You share two beautiful examples of 5512. I´m specially fond of 5512 with minute tracks.
You share also a GMT which also set the trend with its red GMT hand. Great shots as usual! Have a nice and safe week end! Best, Abel
All sublime.. But for me the VH shots blows it all !.. Simply exquisite !.. Chapeau !!
Continue to wear your superb tic-tacs in the very Best of your health !
Hello mj23!! Your hands close ups are truly breathtaking!! Wow! Those blued hands are stunning with their curves playing with the light. I specially love the Vianney Halter hands, though...
the Lang & Heyne, Bunkyo and Habring are beautiful watches of course. The Habring chrono is fantastic. That snail scale and Breguet numerals and blue hands is a tribute to the golden era of chronographs. Superb!! Great post mj23! Thank you! Have a nice we...
Hello Tim! And a great contribution you make to our Theme of this weekend! Thank you! Superb collection of timepieces with gorgeous hand sets you share here.

Excellent lineup Tim ...
The Habring syringe style hands look very good against the dial. Best regards
Hands - what hands
So a bit of a different take from me. The hands on a couple of watches that aren't hands My Memovox - & its alarm disc And now my Memomatic with it alarm hours and minutes discs. So you could say - look no hands! Cheers JML ...
Interesting choices dear JML. Alarm in watches is a
... charming complication. Even in our present times when we can set alarms in our phone I love to have the choice of wearing an alarm watch on my wrist and put it in use. You share two beautiful examples!! Thank you so much for your participation! Cheers...
Thanks :) an alarm watch is always good to wear
Probably my favourite complication. Cheers JML
My favorite hand set can be found on Wittnauer's . . .
. . . Electro-chron. [image and watch credit: Nicolas] Of the watches in my collection, Dornblüth 99.1M takes the blue ribbon . . . . . . followed by the Ω 1894 Homage. The Wittnauer is the only watch I would get expressly on account of its hands. That's ...
Well played, Art, for this week's theme!
Love your choices and especially the Omega 1894. Yours is a very different one that we usually see. For Japan if memory serves. HAGWE !
You're right, Seeks - it's one of the hundred blue dials delivered . . .
. . . to Japan in the mid-'90s. Still awaiting its turn for service . . .
It'll be several months before the 1894 is ready to wear, Abel. My watchmaker's . . .
. . . working on White Connie presently, and already has my cousin's Datejust on his calendar. He's overburdened as it is, so I don't want to add to his workload any more than necessary. Art
Well... in any case the wait will be well worth and the waiting...
... will add enjoyiment once you finally get it back! Have a nice day my dear friend Art!! Cheers! Abel
Thank you so much for your entry dear Art! I agree with you that the Wittnauer hands set is truly unique. The hand sets of the Dornbluth and Omega Homage are classic and beautiful...

Hands down, here are some of the watches that stands out for Abel's theme
Dear Abel, Thank you for taking the time to host this week. What an excellent theme you have chosen for us. In general, I find sharp and distinct hands very pleasing to my eye. No two ways about where they are pointing to! Let me see what I can play with....
Great shots of superb watches !.. Continue to wear them in the Best of your health !’
Cheers !! PS: For me GP 1866, Omega 33.3, and the Reverso Green Small Seconds ! (whereby the VC Mercator is sublime as well ) Chapeau !
Hello dear Seeks! Thank you so much for your great entry! It is always my pleasure to play as host and I´m happy to know you like the Theme I choose. You share some marvelous...
... sets of hands here. I´m very fond of Breguet numerals and your GP and Omega chrono sports some beautiful examples of this type with so nice handsets to point them. But if we talk about an awesome and unique set of hands we can refer to those "Compass"...
Hi Abel, a few from me...
where the hands are always part of the conversation.... Cheers! ...
Hello dear S F!! Thank you so much for sharing your favorite hands which as you well say "are part of the conversation" and they surely well deserve to be part of it.
So hard to choose just one set among your selection. The Freak is something unique no doubt, as well as the Urwerk ("wheel" ?) hands. Other sets you share are more classic but not less beautiful or original as well. Thank you so much for your entry! Hagwe...
Too late, too late, too sad

Hello dear Mike! Never too late to participate in our WS event! And as a matter of fact we still have a couple of hours till 5PM UTC closing.
Silberstein always offered some truly original designs in their watches and obviously in their handsets. Your joyful example is no exception! I can imagine it always makes you smile when you view it on your wrist. I had always loved your Fortis chalk & bl...
Thanks a lot for sharing your favorite hand sets Francis!! I confess that I die for Breguet hands and numerals. They are so classy, classic and timeless!
You share the Breguet designs in your beautiful Breguet and Patek, and also another favorite style, the Dauphine hands on your superb Lange. Thank you so much for your entry and for sharing these beauties! Best, Abel
Sorry for this again late entry... hope you like them even if too late for competing, l'essentiel c'est de participer ;-)
