Judges for "Survivors" are...
MOC for Wristscan, Chris for Static and Marcus Hanke (PPro Moderator for UN and Zenith) for Watch of the Week. A truly tough call.....made no easier by the "Art Ruling" on heirlooms/sentimentality. I suspect I may be hard-pushed not to add a special award...
And we have one result in.....
From Chris: and the oscar goes to… Blomman and the Deep Sea Alarm fantastic watch, masterfully represented. Well done to Blomman....... I know how much you treasure this one. ...
And we have a second judge verdict...
Hi Baron, very tough call this time.....the wrist shots of sentimental pieces,sentimental for whatever reason,are tough to judge. I must say that my honorable mentions are for 3 watch lovers,3 beautiful people I had the luck to meet ,3 people who mean wha...

Man, I get to announce all three before anyone comments!
Dear Joe, judging the watch of the week is difficult this time; many nice watches. My favourite, the Patek pocket watch, is not permitted, due to the rule to exclude heirloom pieces. I especially like pplater's Simplicity, and Ken's stunning Lange 1 Moon....
Your criteria is excellent, Marcus. Very well done, and congrats to Jed and Tim!
The So Cal Gang is deserving this " Tir Groupé ". Best, Nicolas
Thanks for the honor. It's doubly nice to share it with Tim.
Marcus, had I been a judge I would have gone with the Incursore. It was a great photo, and that's a watch I have always admired for its boldness, in much the same way I was drawn to Panerai when I first became aware. One note for the sake of candor: to th...
A gentleman and scholar Jed.
When we first met back in 2009, you were real. Since then we've got to know each other a little more, and I know I'm better off for knowing you. Love your story about the watch and the wedding day excitement! Cheers to you my friend! Have a great remainde...
Marcus, wow what an honor!
I am blown away by this. Wasn't expecting this, as there were several much better pics in my opinion. Allways enjoy erudite writing and reporting over the years. Thank you, enough said. Cheers, Tim
