Post your all time favorite picture you've taken of your watch

Post by AndroidIsAwesome »

This is by far the best I've taken of my Zelos Mako V2. I posted it on various forums in October and it has made its way around the internet with over 80,000 views and counting.... But I took it using my smartphone LOL

Okay, well I will post my best wrist shot until I can find something better in my photo folder. I loved how this picture captured how awesome the SARB065 dial and indices pick up light sources. I was standing under a stained glass window on a boat at a wedding and looked down to check the time and was like "DAMM, that thing looks great!"Image

Alright, if Dub is okay following the most amazing Mako shot then I guess I can’t be chicken...

I cheat a bit by including the whisky... 8-)

I like both the proper sized pour in the whiskey and the perlon! Who makes that strap? The weave looks larger than a Eulit. But it could just be a small watch since I have noticed you rock a bunch of sweet vintage pieces.

Thanks, I am a vintage freak. The strap is an ULLCHRO bought on Amazon. It’s ok, but the buckle is a bit thin, though easily replaced. The watch is 34mm for reference. The weave is a bit larger than My other perlons and is very soft / comfortable to wear.

I chose 4 of my faves from my Instagram. The Laco shots are probably my best/favorite due to the background I used but the gshock was fun to shoot in the snow playing with a filter. The Seiko shot, well that was just a good day of bbqing a good cigar and drinking some local brew. ImageImageImageImage

Probably the best wrist shot I've ever taken. Just this once, the planets aligned and the lighting, angle, and focus came out just right. Image

For color, a pic of my (long departed) Deaumar in the pool in Hawaii.

For composition, my Chris Ward C60 600 in my front yard in the spring.

For feels, my daughter with her birth watch (also the c60).

I have so many watch photos they’re on thumb drives, computers, old hard drives, tablets, phones, iPods, IG. Good grief I don’t even know where to start.

For some reason I really like this one. It’s a very hard watch to photograph.



Oh here’s a good one:
