Hello dear friends of WristScan, We are now live for for our “3 Watches, 3 Days” WristScan event. The challenge is for you to change your watch three times in three days, post a daily photo and tell us why you have made your choices. It could be for many ...  

The Rolex GMT-Master II It’s an incredibly versatile watch and crosses over to cover any eventuality. Formal or informal, no problem ... Exceptionally comfortable for a sports model due to the tapered and smooth bracelet. Quick set date and GMT function a...  

Great casual Friday choice

I think it works well in most situations. Lets see what’s on your wrist today 😉

... and with a big different challenge to answer. You open with a most practical timepiece which is classic and ready to cope with any circumstance. I love your Pepsi Ceramic GMT so much you know. Still pending in my collection regret to say. I change wat...  

It’s interesting that you chose the Ed White 321 as I almost went for the same watch !. The Rolex GMT-Master II is a very flexible choice and I’m sure that you will receive yours soon 🙏 Remember the journey is all part of the joy. Looking forward to seein... 

Tastes in watches and I wouldn’t be surprised if you hsd chose. Your EW as well. I also know your love for that watch. Agree with you with your thoughts about the GMT. I have been collecting and wearing several of its previous references and this is a nee... 

What I like a lot is that it looks so dark, so black on your pictures. Not only the dial, the whole watch looks dark, bracelet including. Have not seen it in real (how could these tines?). Do you find it also extra dark looking?

... taken under a very bright clear and sunny day which has rendered the watch darker. The bracelet is polished on it external links and brushed in the center ones. The dial is truly black and the polished ceramic bezel deep black too and this contributes... 

This Ed White is a truely convincing Omega. HAGWE, my friend!

Well done, Subexporer - A Bravo for your start !! Best for your remaining WE, hs

It is a wonderful modern variant which Omega offers in their catalog for our delight. Appreciate your kind comments so much my dear friend. Have a nice week end you too! Best. Abel

Wearing my GMT 16750 which came back from servicing last week. Making sure it is running fine. Cheers🥂 ...  

Especially with that shirt combo. Don’t forget to join us again tomorrow. Best regards The Captain

You can’t never go wrong with a GMT in any reference. So nice to have yours back from the spa. We always miss our watches so much when they are receiving their service. I wish you’ll keep enjoying it so much! Hagwe! Abel

Enjoy the weekend!

PS: BTW, also a great combo, the 16750 and your shirt !.. Well done, Sir and Looking forward to your entry for Sunday ! Best for your remaining WE, hs

No message body

And today a Tudor Tiger since I’m watching golf 🏌️‍♀️ on TV! ...  

My Choice for today ( Friday) is my ,,new,, Staudt that I picked up from Yvo Staudt last week . We had a nice idea last year to do another special watch with a new guilloche dial made by Jochem Benzinger and to finish it with Arabic Written numbers. I hav...  

I love salmon dials in contrast with a “white metal” case so much! This dial adds the Arab numerals making for an stunning and cool presence on the wrist. Lovely watch! Enjoy it so much and keep looking forward to that special Saturday watch. Hagwe! Abel ... 

The watch turned out exactly like I hoped. I really enjoy wearing it .

... you expected. Really a superb timepiece! Big congrats! Cheers! Abel

That dial by Jochem Benzinger looks superb and the bracelet is bang on trend. Best regards The Captain

He was so kind to let me wear it for a while and its something I really want to add one day .

Best, hs

I usually wear an Apple Watch most days, but wanted a change of pace today so I happen to be wearing a Seiko SBDB009. The titanium case, bezel, and shroud make for a fun watch. The dial is excellent with a matte finish and strong lume. I especially like t...  

The titanium case, bezel are very cool on this one. Thanks for joining us today and hope to see what you have on tomorrow. Kind regards The Captain

My Friday chip-in: For today as a start, I chose an “under-the-Radar” watch, which however exhibits a lot of appeal, IMHO. It really wears comfy on the wrist, just the right size and not to much “ Bling”.. Explorer I, Ref 6610 -gilt; a real Classic with c...  

I particularly like the history that goes with the Rolex Explorer of this era. Very cool. Hope to see what’s happening n your wrist tomorrow. Best regards The Captain

Many attractive shots from the community ! Best, hs

And yes, often it’s really these well -aged Vintages, and especially from Rolex, which can offer real also “ GADA” properties (GADA=Go Anywhere, Do Anything). IMO, a nice Explorer sample, a very nice one, as I was lucky to find it, already several years ... 

I love these old Explorers and they make for a charming and enjoyable presence on the wrist. Have a nice week end my dear friend! Abel

As mentioned quite often, already, I truly appreciate your nice sentiment ! Again your cute setup for your Ed White 321, really causes a smile, when I look at the pics. - It’s one of these little things, if we combine our watch displays with some fun and ... 

... so charming. Your 6610 is truly a great example of this reference. Regarding my pictures, taking them is part of the fun and enjoyment of our watches and it is always very nice to add some additional interest and humor to them if possible playing with... 

Hi Memomatic again for the last working day of the week. Been enjoying wearing it again over the last few weeks. And a few from when not chained to the desk! Enjoy the start of the weekend everyone 😀 Cheers JML ...  

That’s a very stylish Omega Memomatic and in beautiful condition. Hope to see what you have for us tomorrow. Best regards The Captain

My choice for a market like a pond sea this Friday: If the market is boring, well the watch is still thrilling ! ...  

With that special Breguet on your wrist my friend. I have to say it looks rather splendid. 🥂 Looking forward to seeing what you choose for tomorrow. Best regards The Captain

Tomorrow I will show a watch gift from my brother: it is so inexpensive but with a movement that is a cornerstone in horology!

but became a classic Breguet quite quickly.

Ikepod Manatee. ...  

That’s a watch that I don’t anticipate seeing today on WristScan. I always enjoy seeing something different and interesting. Have you had this one for long ? Best regards The Captain

First day, first watch: Because it fits so well for my shirt - at least I think sooo. Yours, Adam ...  

That’s a very cool combo of shirt and watch. Is that a new strap ? Thanks for joining us Best regards The Captain

many thanks for your kind words! Well, it is an original Jlc calf leather strap, I bought it around 6 Months ago.. Yours, Adam

Thanks for sharing your photo and thoughts with us.

since I may not be able to post tomorrow and/or Sunday. The TAG Twin-Time I'm wearing today, tomorrow will be the vintage G-P Gyromatic and the B&R for Sunday. ...  

Good to see that you are changing your watch regularly this weekend. Which one is your favourite ? Best regards The Captain

I would have to say the B&R ranks near the top. I have a Sub and a DateJust also, but the B&R always gets my eye to look down at it. And people to say "nice watch", just something about it.

I think you could have some fun playing with different straps on the B&R.

it comes time to replace the original rubber strap.

Re edition Benrus Type I ...  

The Benrus looks very cool and is a legend in the military. Perfect for your mission with the El Camino. Swing by again tomorrow to show us your Saturday choice. Best The Captain

Not really a specific reason why I wore this today, perhaps because I don’t wear it often... It’s weird, I really love all of my watches and adore them but during COVID I don’t feel that I appreciate them as before. Nowadays I wear my Garmin running watch...  

Good to have you joining us. You make some good points about how the pandemic has changed our habits with our watches. Everything has become more casual. It’s still good fun to make time to enjoy our favourite watches with a bottle of wine at the weekend.... 

...  

That’s the first Cartier we have seen this weekend, very nice. Hope you can join us again tomorrow with another watch. Best regards The Captain

. . . all vintage, all 30T2 movements. Friday will be . . . . . . Chronomètre day. Art ...  

That is what vintage is all about 🤔

. . . yeah, it's an oldie but goodie . . . . . . for sure ;-) . . . ...  

I was hoping that you would show us three beautiful Omega watches. I love the patina on this one. Best regards The Captain

. . . yet different. Nico's namesake tomorrow, Superbowl Sunday's reserved for a black incarnation . . .

Just like this one ... ...  

. . . King of Cool. Inimitable . . .

... dear Art. Have a wonderful week end! Big Hug! Abel
