SHOOT YOUR WATCH

[Politically Incorrect]

"407370" posted a photo of his watch... a sharp photo of
a good and gnarly well worn unit... He even added a "Photo Diary"
of his methodology of his shoot.

Which inspired me to create this thread for members to photograph their
favourite watch/es... whether they be sport, divers, or dress.

I'll start the ball rolling with my usual artless clinical style
with a view of a unit I acquired at a 1/2 price April First sale in
2005, I lived in this watch for about 15 or so years, the strap is its 3rd.

The original black silicon strap went fittwang after
about 7 years of 24 hours a day.
Then I fitted a used "Citizen" Jubilee bracelet
that eventually fell apart, and then fitted the current unit... It's had many adventures.

Anyway I hope this compels you to get your cameras out and put your Product Photographers hat on...
I'd be pleased to have you contribute to this thread and view your timepieces.

I haven't worn a watch in years. Used to constantly bang them on stuff.
It looks like this one has had it's fair share of banging up, too.

I'll have to look for mine; not sure if it's in ME or MD. As I recall, it was given to me in 1980; I think it might need a battery.

Horologists call inexpensive durable watches "Beaters".

The old Mariner, short of being used as a hammer, definitely lead a hard life. It started to
go through batteries at an alarming rate so it was retired about 18 months ago.
