Team,

Surrounded by a series of protective layers of vicious hounds, comfortable installed on an abbey located on a mysterious island,

our honorable judges for this session are:

Blomman for the wrist scan, Marcelo for the static shot and Mkt33 for the Watch of the Week.

Cheers,

Nilo

Fighting alligators on the mud? Google Bananal Island. My judges are protected by beasts and hungry and unfriendly natives. Nature is on my side. Cheers, Nilo

You don't need a ticket ...

 
 By: nilomis : May 25th, 2013-14:22
You can reach Bananal Island by land... And capture some alligators to make watch straps there. Cheers, Nilo

I'm not that mad anymore, Nilo.

I thought this was the island: I don't get along well with the mutucas in Bananal. ...  

I already got the vote from one ...

Our memorable judge Blooman released his votes: Here is my verdict: Runner up - Livius (deBalzac) first pic, Breitling beautiful paired with cherry blossom. Winner - Laurent (Noodia) Heuer Monte-Carlo wrist shot, just awesome! Even if the clock is meant t...

This is all about PWOC !

PWOC : Purists Way Of Collecting Thank you all for your kind comments about this unusual wrist shot, thank you to Blooman for the period ad, next Monte-Carlo shot should be on a dashboard. Cheers, Laurent

Our static scan judge published his vote ...

Here is Marcelo's vote: I was really tempted by Martin (stromer) creative and technical prowess, Anders' gorgeous GO and hs (hs111) Grand Reverso GMT on the tree's wrist: But I've been a fan of Treviso tiles for quite some time now. My wife and I have bee...  

Aaah, Darko did a great job. ;) Thank you for the kind thoughts, Marcelo.

 
 By: amanico : May 26th, 2013-14:20
To be honest, the tiles come from Treviso, but the roof is from Trieste. ;) Best, my friend. Nicolas

Next time the judges will board ...

No, Dr.

We, Baron, KIH and myself, are not equipped with a black metal hand (PVD?) and we cannot cope, like you did, week after week of moderating the Wrist Scan. Based on that, just like the soup guy, NO RETIREMENT FOR YOU. Cheers and welcome back, Nilo

Damn! Just when I thought I could escape . . .

 
 By: Dr No : May 27th, 2013-13:08
. . . the doors swing shut again! Oh, well - even Papillon eventually made his way to freedom. :-)

Dr. No ... No Venezuela for you.

 
 By: nilomis : May 27th, 2013-13:18
For the ones unfamiliar with Henri Charrière's book ... "He escaped from Devil's Island, to ultimately settle in Venezuela, where he lived and prospered, free from French justice.". Again, no Venezuela for you. Cheers, Nilo

I know the roof is not in Treviso...

 
 By: marcelo : May 28th, 2013-19:53
...from previous roof-based (LOL!) topics, Nicolas, but those tiles stand out anywhere. ;) Best! Marcelo

Team, Here is Mike T's vote: "Should have sent in my vote last night as soon as I saw Nicolas' Patek worldtimer on banknotes! That's my vote." We should notice that Nicolas/Amanico won in two categories (Static and WotW). Well done Nicolas! Before we wrap...  

Wow, Darko was in super chape, this week. Thanks a lot for the honor, Mike.
