Phil, that is as nice a watch and photo as I've ever seen. Note to self: Buy more watches and bone up on photo skills. Very nice!

Phil, the watch is just great, looks like brand new and the pictures are outstanding, could you comment how you balance lighting to have this smooth, soft quality?, very professional.

Larry S. and Carlos,

Thanks for your kind comments about this watch.

I have a homemade lite box composed of a Rubbermaid plastic container lined with Vellum paper to diffuse the light from an Ott-Lite (13 Watt). I usually like to have a dark background material ( black felt cloth in this case), which I think absorbs some of the glare of the light, without reflecting back into the camera lens.

Not a professional photographer by any means, but I am enjoying taking these pictures and sharing them on IHC 185.
