Audemars Piguet

I have been wanting to photograph this watch for quite some time. First serious effort at a close up of this special movement, with some editing. Although it does not get much wrist time and I nearly let it go, I am glad I didn't. Have a great weekend. ...  

Thanks. I am on it. Since you posted that impossible photo of the Lange chronograph movement, I have rekindled with the old macro. I will post them as I go along. Hagwe. Benjamin

Great picture One Day, when I have the time to do so, I will learn how to do that

Especially Saturdays when it’s raining Only problem is: it never rains where I live haha

I tried several times to get good pictures of the 2120, but I failed... ...  

I quite like your photo. I am not sure if the glass on the AP gets anti-reflective treatment. In your photo, the PP glass is invisible, but not so on the AP. Taking decent photos of the dial is proving a major challenge. It reflects every bit of light tha... 

Here is the dial side of my well-used RO. In the end... I could not let it go. Best. Benjamin. ...
