WristScan

Hello dear friends ! We are now live with our WristScan theme .. “Things that make you go Boom !”. You know that moment when you see something that gives you that “Boom” moment. It could be a special watch in your collection, perhaps something you didn’t ...  

... with my entry today. I`m sure we will receiving some awesome entries from our participants along the weekend. Have a nice weekend my dear friend!! Cheers! Abel

Thank you for your kind words and I look forward to seeing your choices. Best Captain

Arrived home too late today Friday. Will post tomorrow with much pleasure! Have a nice and relaxed weekend my dear friend!

Went to a watch fair at my AD long ago, was not planning on buying anything. Walked in and saw the Bell & Ross rep with his display, saw this one and "BOOM". I knew right then that I had to have it, the rest is history. It needs more wrist time, maybe nex...  

I like your choice and it’s good to see you enjoying it. How long ago did you get it ?

best as I can recall. Love the watch.

Keep enjoying and loving it so much! Hagwe! Abel

My wife and I love hot sauce, so this “ Boom “ has a delayed effect. The AP Royal Oak has been a long time sweetheart and the VC Overseas is fast approaching that depth of feeling. the connection of the Monaco to racing is undeniable. Two very fine instru...  

Of both the watch and non watch variety 👍🏻

Not only great choices but I love your photos. Well played ! Best Captain

Not easy to choose just one watch among these you show here. But the Deep Sea Alarm makes me go Boom each time I view mine! Beautiful shot gun by the way!! Firearms are another thing which make me go Boom! Hagwe! Abel.

I liked how the shotgun pic turned out , but not so much with the JLC DSA. I hope your weekend is awesome!

Boom watch for me, had to have it, my best friend/bro heard and got it for me, the love is strong even though it's been over 8 years since I got it. ...  

Of a mysterious variety - for a long time Montblanc didn’t seem to be sure if it existed 😉 Surprised by the Volvo, though 😉 How about some of your Maranello bombs? 💣🤞🏻

I was curious as to why it wasn't part of the Unicef initiative, we've been a Volvo Family since 1986 😊, always had one or two in the fleet, the Cavalinos had long bolted from the stables by the time this beauty arrived 😀 🙏👍

The only one that remained is the 850T-5R 🦾 Need to reactivate it at some point 🧐🤞🏻

After eight years you know you made a great choice. I particularly like the last photo 👍 Best Captain

It looks more impressive with that beautiful bracelet I feel. Great shots to share it! Well played! Hagwe Abel

I agree the bracelet adds some flashy charm to it 😁

And the beauty of it is that many things can have that effect. Sometimes it’s small stuff that rekindles a memory or something that one has strived towards for many years. Here are some of mine… Getting the VC1972 was truly a bomb feeling 💣 As was the Cho...  

Your first choice is also one of my boom moments with the exceptional Vacheron. Good food is always a good choice for maximum enjoyment and I would love to have a drive in the legendary LFA 👍

Been a great Dan of Lexus over a long time. Unfortunately the model lineup in Europe is really dire in the meantime 🤷🏻‍♂️ I imagined you would like the 1972 😉 Was yours a bomb moment, too? 😊💣

When I saw the Vacheron it was a very memorable and happy moment in time. I had to have it 💥💥💥

If the theme reappears in 3 years, the Hunza Valley roadtrip will be one of the booms 🦾🦾🦾

Would you like to do some Hunting? 🫣😁

Maybe the Captain will then come, too 😁 Picture from: Toyota ...  

But that could change in the new location 😉🤞🏻

...  

For three of us and that car would be the tiny rear seats 💺

Even if most likely the more sensible choice 😊🤷🏻‍♂️ We could always ask Vlad for an Alpine - in a nomen est omen sense 😉🤞🏻

Especially the ones of the terrible variety 😂😂😂

We need to have some wine on board 👍

Or it would be mulled wine in half an hour 😂

But can’t drink more than two pints 😳

🍷🥂

...  

Truly boom and simply epic 🙌🏻💣

... this VC is a very special watch among all your beauties. As you show here, fine watches, fine cars and beautiful roads and places to drive them make you go Boom as well as good food and sailing. That´s wonderful!! Also wonderful to share these things ... 

Much obliged. And hopefully there will be a chance to explore your homeland with a car at some point for an additional boom. Already have the watch / strap combination for it 😁🇦🇷 ...  

You always share some wonderful watches and cool strap choices. I think it would be wonderful if you decide to visit my country some day. It surely offers some breathtaking places to visit by car and offering great opportunities of driving. I wish you wil... 

Born ready 😁

Your Prestige de la France is a big boom watch for me too (as you know), but the patterned dial of the GS Special is also wonderful! And of course, the none-watch things are quite tasty too! 😉 Cheers, Emmanuel

The GS was quite the thing for me back in the day - and I still thoroughly enjoy it. As for food, when I yearn for something tasty these days, it’s either your home town from your youth or something else in Alsace - can hardly go wrong there from a culina... 

I live your VC. A very special piece… 🙏

BOOM Behold, the immensely powerful sound of a Paiste Accent Gong. A song can have the gong at the very beginning.... Or, perhaps, somewhere amid all the chaos... Or the end of the song. ...  

Well played and Jungle Boogie hits the spot ! Best Captain

And great watch integration into the picture 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The French Navy has an elite commando group called the Commando Hubert (there are many), they currently are the main anti-piracy and anti-terrorist group of commandos that do some incredible rescues and other black ops activities. The watch you see is in ...  

Thanks for sharing this interesting bit of history 👍🏻🙏🏻
