The WS for the 17th of September - ‘Coloring outside the lines’ - is live
By: KMII : September 17th, 2021-14:15
As posted yesterday the theme of this week’s WS is ‘Coloring outside the lines’. So basically watches that don’t really make a classic of your collection or otherwise if your collection is very different from the norm… Surprising uses, unusual locations, ...
Nice theme
By: Cookies : September 17th, 2021-14:22
I gave it some thought, and went through my pictures to find this picture, taken last year in Canberra. Some pink cherry blossoms blooming then, which brightened the landscape. This piece is the only piece I have with an unusual complication (deadbeat sec...
Thanks KMII

Wish I came more prepared for this theme. If I could conjure up any watch into my collection to feature into this weeks post, i would likely post the following: 1) A meistersinger 1-handed piece 2) A jump hour piece .E.g Mickey Mouse Genta biretro Tokyo d...
Thanks Cap’N

Wish I had a Romain Jerome cartoon themed piece for this weeks event.=D
Excellent Abel!

Looking forward to what you will show us 👍🏻

Great theme
By: Arronax : September 17th, 2021-17:46
I'm sure we are going to see some amazing stuff! I am very much a dive watch person through and through with flyback chronographs a distant second but this one is the most left field for me: ...
This is a pretty funky piece indeed!
By: KMII : September 18th, 2021-04:26
Pocket watches are a cool touch generally and nowadays very much outside the lines and this Seiko is a spectacular demonstration of that 👏🏻👌🏻🙌🏻
The weird zone…. Have a nice day 🙂
By: Stoikos : September 17th, 2021-19:21
Black glossy leather strap? Then it’s a dress watch. My father’s 1983 Omega Gold DeVille Ultrathin. 32 mm. My old motorcycle boot. My most comfortable and frequently worn footwear. ...
Thx Hmd!

Hello dear KM! Here some shots to answer your Theme.
By: Subexplorer : September 18th, 2021-00:56
Though about 90 percent of my watches have a manual or automatic mechanic movement inside I own a few quartz watches which can be considered as timepieces which color outside the lines of my collection. And I must recognize that in spite my preference for...
These are wonderful pieces indeed!
By: KMII : September 18th, 2021-04:33
And your statements made me remember the times when one could actually walk into a watch shop and walk out with a watch 😂 The Timex also adds a wonderful dash of color!
Could not agree more 👍🏻👏🏻
By: KMII : September 18th, 2021-14:21
That’s one reason why I also enjoy independents, where demand is not being gamed 😊👍🏻
New old stock ! …
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 18th, 2021-15:09
That’s a cool Rolex dear Abel ! The Citizen Aqualand reminds me so much of many enjoyable diving trips over the years and friends that I meet diving. For many years it was “The” divers choice. The watch I can’t see is your X-33, I assume it’s outside the ...
Hello dear Captain! Thanks a lot for your kind comments!
By: Subexplorer : September 18th, 2021-23:42
Yes, the second Rolex quartz was a lucky find a few years ago. I was talking with a friend owner od an AD when I mentioned my fondness for these watches and he said: oh! You like them? I have the last one in my vault for yesrs without selling. Is it possi...
Love the Playboy watch, and the UG.
By: Ruffian : September 18th, 2021-01:18
Here's a vintage Longines stop seconds. Just an unusual complication. Colouring outside the lines - these beautiful cartoons by Liz Climo (formerly cartoonist for the Simpsons) really make my day. She doesn't colour outside the lines though! ...
What a post 👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻
By: KMII : September 18th, 2021-04:36
The watch is lovely but the combination with the cartoons is superb 🙌🏻👌🏻
Thank you!
By: Ruffian : September 19th, 2021-00:34
Amazing
By: Cookies : September 18th, 2021-02:40
I like the Patek regulator because of the dial.
Good shots terbaboom ! …
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 18th, 2021-15:14
I particularly like the shots of you regulator watch.
Great theme my friend.
By: Watchonthewrists : September 18th, 2021-08:47
Here some from me . Really big watches aren’t my thing but i do love this Ikepod a lot and its pretty easy to wear on the wrist imho Most of you know my love for independent brands but sometimes you regret selling a old ,,big brand,,watch and when you get...
Quirky Tudor …
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 18th, 2021-15:18
That fits the theme ! Great choices and photos Watchonthewrist. Have a great weekend. Best regards Captain
I think I will pick these 2 amongst my collection
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 18th, 2021-10:57
The most unconventional and fun watch and also the thickest in my collection I normally dislike such thickness or quirkiness to such an extreme but I love this MAD 1 ! And then the thinnest watch I have at 3.85mm thin with a very well finished and enterta...
The Piaget is super under appreciated
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : September 19th, 2021-13:32
Glad you like it buddy. Read you are feeling under the weather. Hope you feel better soon
Thanks mate! :)

Such are designs that keep our passion and interest going strong😉
Great theme
By: Weems@8 : September 18th, 2021-14:39
Cool to see other members have the same situation. All mechanical watches, and a few quartz watches. I have this paradox. Feeling good wear my quartz watch. Albeit if i have the chance to wear one of my automatics, i quickly put on the delicate and sensit...
Good to see this Longines …
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 18th, 2021-15:23
I don’t think we have ever seen one on WristScan before. Outside the lines of the usual watches on WristScan, so that should definitely fit the theme .
Odd one
By: hans_jorgen_1968 : September 18th, 2021-14:44
The most Odd watch I own is this one Quartz, the only one I own.. LCD Display.. the only one.. From 1980’s … the closest contender is a Omega Dynamic from 1972… … not 💯 correct.. I have a watch newer than that but with manual wound Junghans movement from ...
Outside the lines …
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 18th, 2021-14:58
Hello dear KM and friends ! I hope everyone is enjoying the weekend and this exciting and thought provoking theme. Taking the theme literally outside the lines … Outside the carbon lines .. Outside the “golden” lines … Outside the lines that Rolex make … ...
Thank you 🙏
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 18th, 2021-15:26
Have a great weekend.
Amazing Ressence
By: Cookies : September 19th, 2021-06:42
And I like your Defy Lab too. Should take a better picture of it. It is a groundbreaking technical piece.
That’s hit the target ! …
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 19th, 2021-10:18
Congratulations on getting your new Ressence. It’s certainly outside most collections. Thanks for sharing it with us on WristScan.
Hmmhh.. Let me see, how I can play this week..

Thought I just look a bit for some contrasts in my stable.. Memovox Pearls of the 70ies : Upper LC 3072, E 872; Middle (from lft to rt) E855 black & white “Ebene”, next 3x E 375, then E862 ( far rt); Bottom: E871 LC 3072: curves, curves, curves.. ( th...
Well played hs ! …
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 19th, 2021-10:21
I particularly like the idea of the 70’s Memovox for this WristScan theme and the MIH is definitely outside the lines ! Best regards Captain
Is that the Defy Lab?
By: Cookies : September 19th, 2021-06:40
My my, that is the oddest piece I’ve seen this week! Clearly it is a winner. Wow!
Outside the lines of the average collection …
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 19th, 2021-10:27
Hello dear Chronometer (aka yacomino). Your strap choices would definitely be considered as perfect for this WristScan theme as they are outside the usual lines. The textures and finishes on the Zenith Defy hits the spot. Best regards Captain
Stylish ..
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 19th, 2021-12:03
The best style is … Your own style !
Case shapes …
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 19th, 2021-10:29
Good interpretation of our WristScan theme and thought provoking. Some people even avoid cases that aren’t round. Well played !

Hi I think there has been a great number of people getting a Gshock in the last year or so - & I was one too! Think I watched too many YouTube videos! Very unexpected - but fun Cheers JML ...
Good call ! …
By: Cpt Scarlet : September 19th, 2021-10:31
The G-Shock is the perfect under the radar watch and for many of us the watch that’s outside our usual collection. Have a great weekend ! Best regards Captain
