Your Best Watch Pictures

Like the way light brushes on the watch here. Warts and all.

Hey ulackfocus, wow these are some awesome shots! I've always loved watches and photography but have never realized I could put these two passions together. I was inspired by some awesome shots I found of Omegas on this blog I found. My favorites shots are the Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch that looks like it is actually on the moon, and the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean that is lying in the snow.

"With the possible exception of the Rolex Daytona, there is no other chronograph out there to match the Moonwatch’s fabled appeal. It is virtually a direct recreation of the model Buzz Aldrin wore during his historic feat, complete with a hand-wound movement and Hesalite crystal. One of the most well-loved watches of all time, every collector should own a Speedy at some point."

Let's see'em guys. As Pat Benatar said "hit me with your best shot". (I'm such an 80's nerd sometimes 😟 )

I'll throw out a few to start.

This was shot free hand - no tripod with the watch on my wrist. The light in my bay window is pretty good for catching the mother of pearl dial. I'm waiting to use this in a Breitling masthead contest.

This shot has just the right amount of reflection. It could be better - I could have gotten a better angle so the date shows in the cyclops evenly - but it shows off the dial furniture nicely.

Gotta include this since it won a Longines masthead contest.

This last one is not mine - it's by Chaotic Bliss, a multi-forum member who hardly drops in anywhere any more. Pity too, because this is a great shot.
