Back to Watch Collecting

Watch collecting has not been an active part of my life for more than a year now. There's the whole PayPal rip-off thing -- and my own mistakes on eBay. But, that doesn't mean that I don't enjoy my watch collection.
Here's a two-tone Rolex Datejust with gorgeous white dial and leather strap. I just love these vintage timepieces -- and the way they photograph. Watches are not as pretty as some animals nor flowers, etc. BUT, they are technically very pleasing to the eye.

The Best For Last...

I saved the best for last. No, not the photo- graphic quality, but the best wrist- watch. BTW, I realize my watch photos are not perfect. However, the SS Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116520 is one of the most sought after wristwatches in the world. It's simple styling and workhorse movement make it a highly coveted timepiece. Sadly, this piece is no longer in my personal collection. It took up too much room (monetarily speaking) to stick around. Ah, but the joy of having owned it is awesome!
Well, this concludes my watch collecting-slash-photography joined theme. I hope you have enjoyed the pics. Next month, it's back to "regular" photography...
