I'm working on a blog feature for my journo course about luxury items and I need a picture.

I've decided to use a Rolex watch as it's the most widely recognised luxury brand, but as I don't want to upset anyone or breach copyright, I was hoping one of our talented photographers would have their own picture which they'd let me use. I'm putting the same request to the Rolex forum, of course, but I've never posted there before so I don't know how much of a response I'll receive!

The logo on the face needs to be the main point of interest, so a nice close up would be ideal. Something along the lines of one of these:

http://www.rolexreferencepage.com/16710 ... loseup.jpg

I hope someone can help me. Thanks so much.

How about Rolex sitting on a Louis Vuitton bag inside a Mercedes?

But seriously, I can take you some tonight.

Crikey, thanks so much for such a great response, I can't wait to see a couple of pictures!

I think it would be best if you just post your images on here; that way everyone else gets an interesting thread to look at with lots of pictures and I can just copy one onto my blog.

I'll be posting it on Feb 1st (hopefully in time for the overhauled, more professional blog launch), so please don't rush yourselves.

Thanks again, I really am touched.

Just found these 2 of mine, I honestly think they are great pictures. The simplicity makes them really good, I think they could be used as a promotional picture :lol:

Did not try to offend you...in retrospect it was a little less good written. My apologies :)
