What is best a custom Rolex or a Rolex that is stuck in custom?

Buy a professional camera and you´re a professional
photographer, buy a flute and you own a flute.

Thanks guys for all the praise, it really means a lot to me :)

Just to point out... it is a big difference between photo printing, re-printing of a painting and actual original painting. (As some of you showed a picture of wall with Rolex pictures hanging on it, those were printed photographs of quite famous if not official photos of the watches)

Tomorrow I will finish my second work which is a painting of a Milgauss GV (which I am proud owner of), I hope you will like it. :)

Hate to burst your bubble but according to Rolex there is no difference.

If the watch in the picture (painted or printed) is 40% or larger in the picture it's not allowed.

No worries, you're not bursting anything... I am curious myself about most of this stuff, as I am completely new to it!

The thing about the size, it is good to know? Where can I find these regulations?

And believe me, from the artistic viewpoint photo and painting are two completely different things.

Thanks :)

Very well done, but you're being a little rough on the bracelets, take them off at the spring bar next time.
