It's a perfect fit.

The nominees for Classic . . .

The Wrist Scan Award for Most Compelling Classic goes to Gregineugene for his Accutron. I can imagine Keir Dullea wearing it in 2001.
Congratulations to Greg for this well deserved win !

Thanks Emmanuel aka "The Horological Encyclopedia"
Love reading your posts. I am always treated to an extensive dissertation on something I never saw before.
Thanks Art for the recognition.
Accutron is an excellent stage in wristwatch technology development. And the Spaceview is the perfect vehicle to showcase that technology.
Big congrats to Gregineugene for his winning watch. It surely deserves to be on the wrist og Keir Dullea in 2001 Space Odissey!! Congrats to all participant mentions as well.
Thank you so much dear Art for a great Theme and Hosting and for judging all categories.
Have a nice week ahead dear friends! Abel
Have a nice week ahead dear friends! Abel
Thank You Art, with such amazing recommendations....
It was tough to decide, especially since Art is so Subjective.
However the following stood out me
Both Abel and Captain are fans of Apocalypse Now, a Legendary film
Watchonthewrist loved this classic
Gregineugene"s excellent choice, imho the best Sci-Fi film ever made
I want to thank everyone for participating this week and sharing together our love for film, it was so much fun 😊👍🙏

Thank you so much dear Salman for your judging this special category for this event. Agree with your feelings about Space Odyssey. It´s evident you are a very knowledgeable fan of...

And the winner for Static is Abel's switchblade image. Why?
It's a perfect fit.
Thank you so much dear Art for awarding my shot of watches and switchblades. My shot was indeed inspired by this wonderful scene of West Story. I was very young when I viewed the film...
... for first time and the image of the knife blade flash when opening it and the dramatic fight scene kept in my mind forever since.
Big congrats to Gregineugene, JML and S F for their winning static shots as well.
Best cordial regards, Abel

Thank you so much dear Emmanuel for your kind greetings and comments. I fell in love with those indexes as soon as I viewed this old Zenith. I´m glad you like it! Cheers, Abel
