Nilo's pick for Wrist Scan goes to . . .
. . . pplater!
"Art,
Here is my vote.
On the hors-concours class we have:
a) Art's Omega, that is envied by 10 in 10 Purists.
b) Anders' Longines, that got more prizes here than I can remember.
Second position goes to:
Abel's (Subexplorer) Zenith, lovely watch with exquisite markers.
And the Wrist Scan first prize goes to:
Pplater's Heuer. Simple, almost pure, a true Purist watch.
Congratulations to all participants. It was hard to select those few.
Cheers,
Nilo"
Thanks for the timely assist, Nilo. Our pm system isn't operating effectively at the moment, so I wasn't able to send pm's with confidence they would be read immediately. That's why I asked for volunteers this week.
A special moderator's award in this category to Andrew L . . .
. . . for this exceptional submission.
Volunteers needed to judge . . .

Dear potential judges don't be shy.....
it's only Darko that you need to worry about ;) Cheers D
Ok, Mr 8 . . .
. . . -ball (or is that 9-ball?), you're on for Static Photo. Please send your decision as soon as possible; it's Sunday, and you know what that means! ...
Oh, the pm's get thru . . .
. . . it's just that the notification doesn't pop up. We hope to have the technical issue resolved soon.
Nilo will be judging Wrist Scan. Still need a volunteer . . .

How very unexpected!...
Thank you for that welcome surprise Nilo. It is humbling, amongst such company. Cheers, pplater.
Congrats and thank you!
Great week this week with some very strong contenders! Thank you for my mod award, I just love this freak. Have a great week, Andrew
That watch and backdrop . . .
. . . were meant for each other, Richard. It's a popular spot for photographers. Art
Mr 8's pick for Static goes to . . .
. . . both ztirual and Baron in virtual tie! "Dear Art, From hot and sunny Dubrovnik straight from terrace goes this week's Static Photo verdict. If considering best static, the ztirual Kari . . . [sorry, folks, this is the largest image I can upload as t...
To get a win where I cheated....doubly nice!
Mr. 8, many thanks for the nod. Undeserved as there were so many great shots this week. But, nonetheless, gratifying to get a win. Nice top notch another Rolex gold!!

Thanks Art,
Very flattered but I had no intention of 'winning'. The wristscan for me is not a contest, just the instant pleasure of sharing on the spot the watch that comes to my mind. And yes sorry, I often delete pictures sometime after having posted them. Firstly ...
Truth be told, the Friday wrist scan thread is really not intended . . .
. . . to be a competition, although I will readily grant that most folks perceive it in that light. The original intent was to create a virtual cocktail party of sorts in which we share primarily our watches, but also thoughts and opinions about other sub...
Dear ztirual
It was my "decision" to mention your shot of KV awesomeness as "judge" That was no brainer for me .... both watch and your photo looked great Also I wasn't clear enough in my PM to Art because your picture wasn't intended to appear in "verdict" my intenti...
i have a different take....
.....i like sharing my pictures and don't see any possessional issue for me. If a judge decides they like my shot, then that is great. It doesn't get any deeper than that for me.
Actually, Damjan, I gathered your intent was to limit . . .
. . . the awards to those images that best fit the theme, but since you mentioned z's image as your favorite overall, I felt it only fair to recognize his submission as well. Art
Well I'm sorry
that I even thought for second that we don't understand each other ;) ....it was ok to mention this static wood, strap and Kari's masterpiece in that particular configuration made my day I saved the picture instantly to my HDD I'm sorry that our friend wa...
