Gorgeous watches and terrific photography. Well done! You just gotta love those Subs! I can't stop staring at mine!

So, you switched out your green LV bezel for black? Looks good!

yes and I like very much its "modern 1680" look ... and I am less afraid diving with it compared to the vintages ;)

Absolutely love your 5th photo of the three stacked up!

A little variation in case shapes especially as it relates to the crown guards.

Amazing photos of a spectacular trio.

It's comparisons like this that show the timless quality of the design. A watch for the ages.

Very well done.

These are some of the best pics I've seen

How do you choose which one to wear? I'd waste so much of my day just staring at them.

That is not a so difficult task
for diving : the 16610 without any doubts
at work : 16800 : low "profile" looks like "an old watch" as one of my collegue says ;) and saphirre crystal
week ends : 1680 : the beauty

the 3 individual watches during the same photo shoot

the 16610 LV (black bezel)



the 16800



and the 1680



hum ... I simply LOVE this thick plexi on the 1680





and by the way JJ none of theses shots are B&W it would loose the patina of the dials ;) , my challenge was to find backgrounds grey or black to highlight the subtile tone of the index
