Default GP Vintage Jackpot Tourbillon Images (Serious Modem Burner!)

Following the report by KC of the private viewing of this monumental timepiece, I managed to shoot and now finally complete the processing of the images of the watch itself.

Eduord Henn posing with the watch on wrist for me to show how well the watch sits on the wrist despite its proportions.


From another angle with Edourd having a sip of wine...


Close up of the watch on wrist...


AND Now for the watch itself - close up....















Hope you enjoyed the series!

Cheers

Wow, very nice Harry. Thanks for sharing with us.

You usual high standard of photography. Really love those portraits' shots as you know I just love black and white photos, especially of such high quality composition and "sharpness"

I am sure Edouard would love them too.

Thanks again my friend.

Cheers

Default Nice shots Harry, but ...

... tell us: how much wine has Edouard been drinking to wear the watch upside down?

CHEERS

HA HA HA, you're sharp Christian, but no he is not drunk

It was done purposely so that Harry could focus on the watch "right-side-up" on Edouard's wrist

By the way, I followed the third race (America's Cup) yesterday via the internet and was a truly amazing race. I thought towards the end of the race that Team Alinghi would win as they have came back from more than 400m behind after the 1st mark and looks that they were going for the winning towards the finishing line. But Emirates Team New Zealand did everything right and managed 25 seconds ahead of the Swiss team crossing the finishing line, an extraordinary and closed-fight race indeed.

Cheers
KokChoon

I asked Edourd to model with the watch with the wine glass as well as having the watch turned round so it will look right side up when shot. They did not turn out well but this shot of him looking like he is drinking is in fact posed. He did not touch a drop and returned the glass when we finished the shoot. :-)

Like me, he is a teetotaler.

Cheers!
