. . . as there weren't that many that adhered to the theme. Wrist shots aplenty, but not with books in the background. Kurt posted this reverse wrist shot of his Rolex . . . . . . Cap shared his Speedy taking in a speed theme . . . . . . Abel got into the...

I loved the photo of your Omega with the family bible. The timeless presence of real books - and in particular family bibles - allows for connection across time and generations that e-readers will never replace.

Fantastic veredict dear Art!! Big congrats to all winners and mentions. So nice to be able to know about our participants tastes around books, authors and watches.

As for the text in the background, it's a phylogenetic tree for wagtails - and I don't understand either! Cheers & thanks to everyone for a great Wristscan JML

Watch of the Month seemed the most difficult category . . .
