*******photo contest update*******

Just wanted to give everyone a reminder and some updates regarding the vintage photo contest.

1. Nikos aka Greekbum was kind enough to donate a black 20 mm buffalo leather nato strap to the contest. Thanks Nikos for your generosity. This additional prize has opened up the possibility for a sixth category, the open class. The rules for the open class are as follows:
a. No more than 2 pictures per person.
b. The picture submitted must have at least one vintage watch in the
picture but may include any number of watches.
c. The picture must be taken by the person submitting the picture.

2. On or around 00:01 November 20, I will start the official thread for the Daytona class, Submariner class, Sea Dweller class, GMT class, and the Explorer class. Once the thread has started posting to the thread can commence.

I look forward to seeing everyone's best efforts as we try to capture our hobby on film. This will be a lot of fun.

If a stripper is in my pic, does this help or hinder my odds of winning? Or does it depend on her 'patina'? Just asking. Harry

Patina is good. Stripper patina probably not so good...LOL. All pics must be in accordance with the rules set forth for the forum.

If you refer to her as an exotic dancer all will be fine
