Notes for Newcomers:

If you are new to this thread and enjoy photography then feel free to post your pictures! We run a fresh photography thread each week, starting on the Sunday, and have a guest judge set the theme and pick winners each week. You are welcome to post as many pictures as you wish with a connection to that weeks theme. The runners up will be mentioned in the following weeks thread and the winner gets a mention and their winning photo in the weekly newsletter.

Winners also get an exclusive 'Winners Badge' for their WC profile!

If anyone wants adding to the tagging list, DM me to let me know๐Ÿ‘You certainly don't need to be on the list to post in the thread, it just helps people see the weekly post when its put up.

Happy snapping!

Congrats people!

Thanks @Deeperblue for the honor of being this weeks guest judge!

Iโ€™m a bit nervousโ€ฆ looking through prior weeks Iโ€™m stuck how many great pictures are posted, and thinking โ€œwow, Iโ€™m glad I donโ€™t need to judge this!โ€

No surprises here: My theme this week is physical fitness

Anything you do to get your heart rate up, get stronger, or maybe a sport you compete at. Itโ€™s a tough balance - do you highlight the activity, or the watch, or can both be featured? Points if watch seems appropriate for your chosen exercise: you wouldn't take your GS 413 on leather swimming. (unless shackled by the constraints of a 1wc challenge)

Image

A watch photo shoot in a gym/pool/tennis game could be embarrassing, but this is the cross we bear in becoming great watch photographers ๐Ÿ˜‰

And thanks to @BadgeHoarder for the runner up vote from last week - Iโ€™m sending a screenshot to my daughter (sheโ€™s in Japan right now) and telling her that doing fractions homework was totally worth it ๐Ÿ˜œ

Thanks!

I was traveling last week and didnโ€™t have time to give your topic the proper attention. I wanted to borrow my wifeโ€™s classroom for a summer break themed shoot. โ€œSchools out for summer ๐ŸŽธ๐ŸŽธ๐ŸŽธโ€

Great theme choice!

Will get on this tomorrow ๐Ÿ’ช

Tell her that youโ€™re an amazing dad.

When my daughter ask me for help on her homework, I just go โ€œMe BRAINFREEZEโ€

On some hikes and with my dad cruiser. I have a couple other ideas that I'll try to get to this week.

I need that badge so Iโ€™m digging my past photos. @Fieldwalker

Strong man in the background. Ohhhhhh I is working out. Correction: He is.

A violent demonstration with my GShock (later stolen in Barcelona)

Riding a hungry horse.

Pretending to jump off a helicopter at Niagara Falls. (007 style)

However, I apologize for wearing a Brietling in this photo. Not quite 007 enough.

Diving 5 meters below water! In my Seiko Diver Solar Quartz

Swimming with dolphin in Mexico

Image

Alaska glacier. Well I wore a Two Tone gold watch. Itโ€™s heavy. So wearing this has to be a workout

Image

Lifting the Rolex Perfume. In all of 75ml in metric units. This converts to roughly thousands of lbs.

Hiking with the kid, the dog, and the G-Shock.

Image

Nice! When my kid was young I did that โ€˜weight workoutโ€™ a lot as well ๐Ÿ˜‚

Image
ยท

As a photo, this is an embarrassment. As a document of this morningโ€™s hike, itโ€™s something I can be proud of. Especially considering that a year ago, I was pretty sure Iโ€™d never be healthy enough to hike again. Today I did 10 miles with 2800 feet of elevation gain. Granted: Iโ€™m sure limping now! But still. ๐Ÿ˜€

Days off = More time for a long PT sesh! And does this count as appropriate use of your tools AND double-ish wristing?

"Tempo" day (try to stay anywhere from 15-17 mins per mile for 2 miles for 5 rounds plus extra stuff between). ๐Ÿซ ๐Ÿคข
