...just stay home and make a photo shooting of one of my nice and beloved models...

I was actually on the way to go to a Vacheron Constantin event downtown but there was so much traffic jam that I could never reach the place and had to make a U turn (Concorde Square was actually blocked due to a concert

Obviously I had this beauty on the wrist which gave me an opportunity to let her lying gently for a shooting...

Even the deployant buckle is having sensual curves...

I just love this beauty...

HAGW to all

Mike
