·Yeah, I’m barely in it and likely to be in the bottom, but who doesn’t love a contest? @Darlinboy knows how to create interest and suspense, and I’m very much looking forward to seeing the latest crown handed out!

Do kindly insist that sweet Mrs. @Darlinboy take her time and celebrate the weekend when she feels good and ready!
👍
I shall relegate myself to the proverbial OF corner and consider myself soundly scolded and placed in a deserved time out!

··Pratts! Will I B******S!!!The Grand Prize winner will select one (and only one) of the following three watches.
1. Dan Henry 1939 Military Chronograph - NIB (https://danhenrywatches.com/collections/vintage-watches/products/1939-military-chronograph)
2. A genuine U.S. military Hamilton GG-W-113, issued in 1987 and barely worn - still on its original strap!
Hamilton cal. 649 17-jewel movement, hand wind, hacking
34 mm diameter, 18 mm lugs
3. Bombfrog Minesweeper, circa 2014, NOS with rubber & sailcloth straps, zippered storage case.
- 43mm 316L Brushed Stainless Steel Case
- Seiko NH35 Automatic Movement (Hacking)
- 300M Water Resistance Sapphire Crystal.
- 120 Click Unidirectional Rotating Bezel.
- #25 in a limited edition of 200 Pieces.
First, Second, and Third prize winners will choose from among the following prizes, selections to be made in the order of finish. I may add another prize or two along the way depending on the number of entries or if a particular theme catches my eye. We’ll see how it goes.
1. Omega Seamaster dealer plaque & strap tool
2. Jaeger-LeCoultre promotional Swiss army knife
3. Genuine Rolex storage pouch, and as an added bonus, it has a watch inside - oh yes it does! The watch has a honeycomb dial, but I will say no more than that. ☕
4. A brace of vintage Bulova signed pocket knives.
5. And finally, the ??? MYSTERY BOX ??? Is it trash? Is it treasure? Only time will tell.

@dougiedude
... his second second by the way. 👍
This entry was referred to by one judge as “the Godiva one” and by the other as the “Longines trio.” 😕
In the case of the former, I suspect the watches may not have been noticed.😒
Yes Doug, there IS a Santa Claus.😜

@dialstatic
A former top three contestant, slipping in late in the game with this wonderful photo. So evocative of the season (at least for those of us in the higher latitudes of the northern hemisphere).
And that Ploprof rink!🥰
It didn’t hurt that Mrs. Darlinboy often skated at Rockefeller Center’s famous winter ice rink during her time in NYC.
A clear favorite throughout the judging - well done Bram!

@Andreas
A OF fan favorite from start to finish, this wonderful photo also wowed the judges.
Hits you with a burst of eye candy and then rivets you with the tension of the Ultra Tug-O-War!
And we could practically smell those warm fresh gingerbread cookies.
Congratulations!

··Carpe horologium!I gott say, this is kinda exciting. It’s 4:30 am here and I can’t sleep 🍿
I'm gonna go 'SANTA', and grab me some cookies and milk while I wait...🍿☕
Edit:
Dang, the cookies hadn't even soaked yet, and then the fabulous winning @Andreas pic suddenly loaded!
Maybe I should just do a rummy eggnog instead...
Sure was fun... thanks Darlinboy Fam for doing this again this year!!!😁

Awesome job, Darlinboy and Mrs Darlinboy 😀 - thanks for organising this, and festive felicitations to the winners.
