I am mildly disappointed that we have had our Wrist Sushi 6th anniversary with no competition. So I challenge throughout this week a photo comp. ending next Monday. 1 challenge. To recreate this photo. It has multiple elements that i will reveal next Monday. You will get 1 point for each element correct and those with the most points will be in the running for this Casio.  Here is the comp photo.  Please don’t submit any guesses as to what you think the elements are. Just your photo. I will create a separate thread for you to post your entries. wristsushi.proboards.com/thread/19331Only one submission entry per person. Here is a hint. It’s not reliant on this watch or this movement. Happy anniversary. Cam |

Don't know much about these West End Watches but got it on looks only. Seller said it was working great and had recently been serviced, they always are.
It had been sitting in the drawer for almost an year until I puckered up the courage to fix it a few weeks ago. The balance had terrible end shake (broken pivot) and there was dirty oil flecks visible and some of the jewels were running dry  . Sourced a complete balance and serviced the thing. All works fine now at +4 seconds which is OK as I never wear same watch for more than 2 consecutive days
That smudge at 8 is the crystal protective tape.
@camrock, Great idea, I love a puzzle.

Mr.Jones that is correct. I’ve created a separate thread for the entries. ouroboros I hope people like it and use their imagination. If it’s successful I can possibly run another challenge or hand the baton over to another who would like to run a similar challenge.

I bought this as a basket case from a seller in Israel, and although it’s still rough around the edges it runs like a train after a bit of tinkering and I love it.  |
