WristScan - WOTW 30th January 2015 Winner

WOTW 30th January 2015 Winner

Feb 01, 2015,16:07 PM

I was a little distracted by the wine and food with watch photos but that is understandable for the ex-moderator of the Wine, Food & other Epicurean Delights Forum

Commended Fun Photos

tempusfugit almost made it with the Seiko Burger watch, except there was no food in the photo as per rules..

Ed's colourful and cheerful photo of Silberstein's watch is what this community is all about.

Is tequila a food group? I vote YES but that medical decision may be biased by Damjan's PuristS ABR watch.

SHORTLIST

The following watches are the shortlisted for the Watch Of The Week and it was a tough choice. Although 'food' and artistic photography had some influence, the main criterion was which watch made my heart go pita-patter bada-bing-bada-boom.

Which one would I give up my whiskey for a week?
