My Waltham Pocket Watch
Still no tripod or lightbox so I had to shoot handheld again and use a flash, hence the harsh light.
I just could not hold it steady enough using only ambient light. 1907 Waltham Crescent Street

Still, great shots on a work of art Chip!
 These old pocket watches don't get the attention that they should. Thanks for posting!

Thanks Rob.
It runs great and keeps better time than my Sub LV! I got it as a gift from my girlfriend's dad a few weeks ago and it is my first pocket watch. Still can't believe this 104 years old watch is still ticking.

I've had two over the years, and unfortunately let both go. However, these pocket watches are what got me into the fold as a modern WIS! Enjoy that pocket watch Chip!
