Nice set up Jocke but a flute would fit better in the light box.

Wait a minute, the date isn't at 28 and the seconds isn't at 31.

Just kidding, great picture. I'm going to steal it for my desktop.

As an owner..I would be interested in reading a brief ownership summary on that particular watch.

Kind thanks!

The watch looks great! Thanks for showing us the set up. I always wondered how some pictures come out so well and mine are so crappy.

Is that a flat fingerboard? There's not much arc on the saddle.

Beautiful shot.

Great shot, as usual. But Jocke, is this just a hobby or is photography your day job?
