The WS for November - ‘Trick or Treat’ - is live
As announced earlier by Captain Scarlet I will be the host for this weekend’s WE and the topic is ‘Trick or Treat’. I originally wanted to call it ‘treat or treat’, since I doubt we will see shots of being tricked 😉 So either you surprise or entertain me ...
Here we go..
…not the greatest fan of Halloween dear KM, much prefer Bonfire Night (Nov 5th) here in the UK. However I did recently treat myself to a custom strap for my BB Bronze, which I am pleasantly impressed with👌🏻 🍻 ...
Makes for a fantastic combination 👌🏻🙌🏻
And the colors are suitably autumnal 🍂👏🏻 To be honest I am quite happy to have missed Halloween this year, too - but yes, horological treats I quite like 😁
Kind words, thank you.
Yes, it’s surprising when you take it off the NATO how different it wears.
The strange combination of a Russian watch and
A Catalan vegetable. Molnija + salsifies, so autumnal!!! Enjoy this special time of the year guys. ...
Thanks Abel!
The pocket watch has an interesting story to tell from its case back... But... Yes, next time! Let's enjoy this week-end's theme!
A fantastic autumnal shot…
But I am not sure I recognize a vegetable in there 😂 Pocket watches are underrated 🤷🏻♂️
One of the few instances of an easy...
Removable back cover. The movement is absolutely simple but nice and efficient.
Halloween is a busy evening for us - over 100 kids usually - and this year as no different.
Didn’t have time to take photos - but here are some seasonal treats! ...
Hello Timeout! 100 plus kids makes for a very busy Halloween night! Wow! I wish everybody had a lot of fun! Nice gathering of horological treats you share here.
Not easy to choose just one favorite ... but I would go for your sublime JLC this time. Have a nice weekend. Abel
The seasonal treats are what we were looking for 😁🎃
And what a harvest 🦾 Of course the KV on the pumpkin colored strap is the one to start off with but the rest are no less enticing 👌🏻🙌🏻
Thanks KM.
Giving myself a chance in the vintage category with the 1st generation Datograph too 😉
Many thanks.
Been switching them back to winter straps in the last few weeks. I use caoutchouc lined straps in the summer to combat the heat and humidity.
Hello Timeout ! .. great pics you shared !..
My personal favs are the KV, 1st shot, the Datograph & of course the Duomètre !! Well done & Cheers !! 😊
Many thanks HS.
Pretty much my favorites too. Although the dial on the Patek is quite beautiful. I really like this one in RG - changes the completion completely from the original. The Havana was my first FPJ - love the RG overdose with the RG movement. I know the CB get...
Thx a lot for sharing your feelings regarding your superb choices !
Truly enjoyed all of them ! - Chapeau !! Best, 😊😊
Thanks Captain.
The watch came with black and brown alligator straps. I asked Kari for this color also - great for summertime!
Hello dear KM!! Halloween is a rather new celebration here…
… in our Country. Of course we were familiar with this festivity through films and TV shows, specially those coming from USA. But as a local celebration or party during the night of October 31st I feel it arrived around 15 or 20 years ago. It’s a very fun...
That Frankenstein…
Has very slender arms, if the Doxa looks so big on him 😂 On a more serious note, a superb selection of Halloween themed shots Abel - like always 🙌🏻👌🏻
Ha ha ha!! True dear KM. It looks like a very slender arm but it is effect of the shadows in a very poor rendition picture I used for background. Anyway I don´t know if the Doxa would be the choice...
... of Mr. Karloff . Lol! Glad you liked my choices for the Halloween Theme. Enjoy your weekend my dear friend. Abel
Hello, my dear friend Abel !.. As I had missed the starting first Edition of the new format- WS, this time my best greetings and still Halloweeny wishes..
.. which you decorated gloomy and well to the topic ! - Well done, as so many times, my friend !! My favs are the first shots with the wrapped candies, such as the Constellation, and the two Rollies, one nice 1655, a watch which always makes me smile, as ...
Hello dear friend HS! We missed you on our past event and we are happy to have you participating in the present event. Of course we know that sometimes we have some personal engagements which...
... can prevent us to participate here in some editions. I´m glad you like my Halloween shots and watch choices. The Explorer 1 is a more modern rendition of the 1016 a reference 114270 which was the watch which started me in "serious" watch collecting in...
Great and varied selection Abel as usual!
Are your sure you gave all the “props” back? That’s a lot of candy 😊
All treats and no tricks 🎃…
I love the Dracula and Seamaster shot ! Well played dear friend.
Thank you so much Simone! Glad you like this old SD.
A lot of scars on it makes me feel in an adventurous life with its previous owner. Best cordial regards Abel
Here some of mine…
As I somehow managed to miss Halloween this year (business trip), they will be more of recently acquired treats 😉 ...
Funny how two of them came with grained dials 😁
More of a luck if the draw that both became available close to one another 😊 And the 8Hz sound of the Chopard is truly mesmerizing 🏍️
Great selection KM.
I hadn’t paid much attention to the Blancpain x Swatch but that’s a real stunner!
A bit of a lighthearted experiment 😁
Not done badly, mind - and apparently used prices of real FFs increased by 15% since 🤷🏻♂️
Great choices dear KM... and Big congrats on your new additions to your collection. That Chopard looks fantastic. I love those grained dials a lot. It was a surprise to view your new...
... FF by Swatch! Loos very nice. I hadn´t opportunity of viewing them so far. Guess it will arrive to our land ... some day... You know... our crisis!! Lol! Very nice pocket shot with your JLC AM chronograph... and matching sweater! Well done! As usual a...
Thanks so much Abel!
Glad you liked the watches and strap combinations - unfortunately no Halloweeny shots either in the archive or done last week 🤷🏻♂️
Aston Martin Racing 👀…
The DBS JLC looks intriguing. I don’t remember you having this one 🤷🏼♂️
The Amvox 2 has been…
A watch that I have been having on the wish list for ages - find it one of the most intriguing watches to come out of JLC in the last decades 😊👍🏻
The first two shots are truly mind boggling 👌🏻👍🏻
Now you have truly put proper care and attention to the theme - hat off 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Really love your first shots !!.. Especially the first, but..
.. but also the last is such a well taken shot ! Best & Cheers !!
Great use of props here!!
Would never have thought of the Le Creuset lid as a backdrop - even though I have 2 lurking in the kitchen cupboard🤣.
Thanks for hosting this WS my friend.
We don’t have Halloween here so i just will post some random pics 😬 A suitable wall clock A watch that can be worn on such a occasion imo My imagination says pumpkin 🎃 Hagwe 🤗 ...
As always…
Whether you participate in the theme or not, you find superb shots to go with it 🙌🏻👌🏻👍🏻 The SUF is definitely a fitting piece as are the other two - the wall clock being a year round reminder. The only one missing (off the top of my head) is the Joker 😁👍🏻...
