WristScan

This Friday, the theme is open: Your favourite Friendly Watch, which means your trustful companion, the one you bring with you everywhere, which gives you pleasure, which is useful, well, you got the idea. For me, this Friday, it will not be the most expe...  

friend and a great travel companion. It also seems to get a great deal of attention from the ladies! Thank you for a friendly Friday Scan and I hope it brings many smiles. Best to you all, Tim Relaxing in a Swiss beer garden. ...  

It might be a simple 3-hand watch with date, but the attention to the details of case design, lugs, colour accents, hands and dial mean that you could stare at this for hours. Beautiful. Enjoy! Andrew

its charms many times and catch new angles of excitement when the light is right. Really enjoyed the thread this week, Best, Tim

It joined me under the happiest of circumstances and reminds me of a time with much less responsibility; a watch I wear to the office just as much while trekking through the forest in the countryside. As Nicolas said, not the most expensive nor the most c...  

... the watch for all occasions. Office, home, space exploration and walks in the forrest. I still marvel at the design, comfort and functionality when I have mine on. It is also one of a handful of watches that should be part of everyone's collection, at... 

I agree the Speedy Pro is one of those watches that everyone should experience at one point or another. It carries with it a sense of purity and comfort, and has an instantly recognizable look. Thank you for the kind words, and have a great weekend! Colto... 

You can\'t chose a favorite would not be fair. Bill ...

What are the four crowns for? Best Blomman

Basically the two crowns at 8 and 10 control the inner rings independently. The crown at 2 with the red ring resets the minute hand to 12 and the timing starts. It measure the time continuously in minutes. Crown at 4 set and winds the watch. Bill

Hm, sounds a bit too complicated for me... I better stick to two or three crown watches...! ;) Best Blomman

Perhaps this UN for me... ...  

that watch has an awesome patina...

Thanks to Champthekid, he sold me my long sought TTP65 SS Now, if only I was heading to a nice warm Caribbean island, to get away from all the ice and snow, ths would be my only watch for the trip! . See me smiling? Best, and thanks Steve! Joe ...  

...in the reflection off the lug. ;-) I am so delighted that you have joined the club. I know how long you hunted this one and how much you wanted it. Now we have to arrange a mini-GTG to reunite our brothers from the Paris Boutique. Enjoy it, Joe!

.. BTW: Myself, I've been running after the TTP 65/ss for 4 yrs .. Thus, wear her in the best of your health ! Best, hs

A fantastic watch! :) Is it the Paris edition or the PL version? Best Blomman

For me that is the Explorer II ! :) Friendly.... Fun.... Travel.... But, not the watch I will wear on Friday.... Friday will be a Funky watch! For those of you who have missed the Funky Memovox post rolling over at the JLC forum, please come by and have a...  

Bravo for this great series of scans, my friend. Best, Nicolas

Thank you my friend! From my last trip not long ago.... Already feel it's time to get out of the dark and cols of Sweden...! Best Blomman

.. Super Funky 3072 !! Best, hs

In a different timezone - this is my go to watch! :) Yes, the 3072 "Grand Master Funk" - always a lot of fun when on the wrist! As you know very well, my friend! ;) Best Blomman

Love this chronograph and the lack of date allows me to move the time back and forth. JLC Deep Sea 3 counter - On a plane, returning home. On a more poetic settings: Today I'm wearing a watch that is priceless. Just got the first maintenance of his long l...  

Cheap. I'm moving to the high (at least for me) and low (my Camy and others) watch lines. Cheers, Nilo

And the Camy also looks great! :) Best Blomman

When the Swedish donations to my NGO ("The JLCless of the 3rd world") arrives. Pretty slow post office that your have? What is happening? Weather? Now serious: I miss the vibes of a JLC on my wrist. Got this one, got a dressy other and now ... just wait. ... 

I understand your choice. As for me, I'm into an old lady too, with my Speed Mark IV : familly, authenticity, a long love affair... Have a great week-end too. Cheers, Mark ...  

I just realized with Joe's post about the hard core of a collection, that on my 12 keepers selection, two were the oldest, in my collection! Best, Nicolas

and it means that all the remembrances and emotions the watch are filled with, as time goes by, is of most importance. Cheers, Mark

This has been all over on travels, to South Africa, England, Mexico...this was last spring in the Valle de Guadalupe at a lovely spot my dear wife found. As the sun rose over the hills to the east, I was wandering in the vineyard outside our room/pod enjo...

Tends to be simple, classic, elegant and easy to read time. Most importantly it makes me smile alot, being my first haute horology piece, like a firstborn. Presenting my Vacheron Patrimony Traditionelle. Hope you enjoy this wrist shot. :) Cheers Robin ...

It's interesting , that despite so much heart goes into JLC, your choice - fully understandable for me.. Rolex is apparently another BIG love.. ( happens to me, on a much lesser scale, pretty much as well); :) - second notion is, that these GMT's to me st...

Modern enough to knock around without a care and wear it every day anywhere but the dial makes it so rare that it is unique to the trained eye. What a great piece. Enjoy it, Jeff. V/R Mike

.....since you will wear JUST my 6200 for 25 years, then send me ALL of your watches as you won't have time to wear ANY of them. This is a trade i could consider.
