Some wonderful pics taken by a buddy of mine at work last week. He is practicing his photography, and wanted some jewellery and watches to experiment with, and to add to his portfolio. Very positive outcome IMHO and we had a lot of fun! All were taken just outside our loading dock at work. Hope you all enjoy!

Carl, you have very refined taste! Thats a Gentlemans's collection right there :!:

Great photos too, my favorite is the Railmaster, then the Rolex.

Beautiful pictures Carl, and good to have you back here again. You've been absent a while and just because you don't have a Breitling at the mo doesn't mean you're not welcome! :wink:

One thing though - I get really nervous when I see beautiful watches on rough surfaces like rock and rusted steel! Gives me the shivers!

Your colleague did a great job Carl - they are wonderful shots. I'll also echo what Driver8 says - we need your wisdom around here.

That's a very refined collection that you have now, clearly you've found the right style for you. I really like the contrast that the watches make with your rings.

Actually, I am not a good photographer at all! My work buddy, Tom, is learning photography, and wanted to use my watches and rings to take for his portfolio. I think he did a great job! We had a great time for a couple of hours outside the back of our loading dock, trying to find good backgrounds.
It is great to be back at Breitlingsource.com. Regardless of how long one is away, there is always a warm welcome on return. Yes, I have always felt welcome. Even though I don't own a Breitling any more. You guys are the best!
Thank you for all the great comments. Actually, my Omega collection is up for sale. I just haven't got round to posting a thread on here yet. They are three lovely watches. However, I am not really a collector - nor can I afford to be - and to just have the watches sitting in their boxes month after month, makes no sense to me. I have found my favourite - the Explorer - and it is the only watch I wear now.
Cheers,
Carl
