What’s your favorite photo of your watch?

Not necessarily your favorite watch, but your favorite photo of one in your collection.

I find my self paying a lot more attention to photos of to my watches since WatchCrunch and I’m feeling it’s becoming some what of a sub category of the hobby at this point. I’m Having a lot of fun and hope to get more interesting shots of them with nice scenery or backgrounds over time.

I'm lucky that the camera software on my Pixel 6 Pro is so good. I really don't consider myself to be that great at photography. These are some recent ones that I'm proud of.

Some watches seem far easier to photograph for an amateur than others. I’m pretty pleased with this one:

Also the (somewhat accidental) Gothic atmosphere of this one:

I agree with what you say about photographing watches as a sub-hobby. It proves a useful distraction from being obsessed with buying the next watch. Instead focus on viewing your existing ones in a different light.

I have so many, but I also realise there are watches that I've yet to take a decent photo of.

I like the warmth of this, considering it's mainly monotone:

These are fun:

Exactly!

Anything that we can do to distract us from spending money on the next one is good 😂

Very nice photos!

Thanks for sharing.

Haha, far from it but I appreciate it. Just a hobbyist with a camera. I agree with @WatchBee in that it’s a healthy distraction from hunting new watches and appreciating what you own.👌

Wonderful images! I can understand and yet I do not. I love most of my watches but I have never photographed a single one through all the long years that I have messed with the mechanical objects. The ones that work well will be rotated on my wrist where I might take an occasional peek to note the time. However,I do wish for a few photographs of my two adorable daughters when they were still adorable playing carefree in a shabby neighbourhood playground, am I talking about apples when the community, oranges? I apologize.

The morning sun would make the shot more romantic, but I think it's an interior light. We like our lighting so it's probably a soft glow lamp.

Would you want to try it one day when the you have time to your self? No kids for me but nothing is more important to me then family especially my wife. Spending quality time is really the only thing she ever wants so it makes my life simpler for me But when I have my personal time it’s fun to mess around.

If you don’t have any Personal time to your self that you not indersyanding makes sense.

I appreciate you comment

Hi I was an avid photographer in my younger years, still have vintage darkroom equipment. My kids are grown living more successful lives than I ever dreamed for. There are not enough hours in one day even for a man who sleeps little. I was on my way for a monthly trim of my greying hair when I noticed the shuttered bus terminal across the street, did take several photos of an early stomping grounds of my youth. I am being facetious. I totally get it! It is a passion. We shop almost daily for fresh produce for our meals when we have a designer fridge, surrounded by the best eateries but my family history is sweating buckets in a hovel restaurant.

Best,

J

I'm a lousy photographer. It's a. good thing the subject matter is so forgiving.

Judging by most WRUW posts, it’s either cr0tch shots or one behind the wheel of a car 😂

Yea I realized later in the game you can take the pick on your phone edit the car wheel and crotch out before posting not to long ago.

Idk if I retain the I.Q to comprehend the construct and depth of you response. Though my instincts tell me there was an underline theme that seems to have gone over my head 😬

My apologies,

I appreciate your energy

Lool I don’t think your parents raised any dumb kids. For no good reasons I am wildly misunderstood. There is a watchmaker in the area who has informed his customers that he dislikes me with a passion, does not even know my name.

Cheers,

This is one of my favourite shot. Didn't take many photos of my watch until recently, but I took a wrist shot every day for WRUW.
