Of course, I couldn´t read that crap in the night.



Wait a minute, someone is out at my backyard trying to steal my trash can.

Could this be far from the look of the NEW sub minus the super case and ceramic bezel... I could live with it!
Great shots!

Jocke, I don't know what you do for a living, but yours are some of the best watch pictures I've ever seen in my life. Rolex should hire you to do their ads.

By the way, your pictures are not the result of using a professional camera, they are the result of a true artist behind the lens. Congratulations on a great post.

Very nice Jocke!
Is that your work bench? Is that at home?
Is it just a hobby, or do you fix watches for a living?
I never realized you were so in to it!
