At first I was like "why the heck did he take pics with those reflections, until I noticed.

A salute to your photos sir!

Nice watches too.

I've never seen that TT GMT with the gold dial. More info please.

Great collection and I really liked the reflections.

Amazing collection you have there, Joe.

Not trying to be critical, but some of those pics have light reflecting off the crystal. The light is obviously coming from the back....something you've got to watch out for.

Since Rolex does not use anti-reflective coating on their crystals, they are hard to photograph.....but you'll get there....eventually!!

The pictures, however, are very clear and not at all blurry!!

Well next time before I take pictues I will give God a call and see if he can help me out with the back lighting. Yea, I was going to put some cheese cloth on the lens, but then you guys would think I know what I am doing. These day, a couple of beers and the camera remote is about the best I can do. Just kidding...thanks for advice.
