Pocket shot
It's been a while since I did such a photo.
This watch hardly ever leaves my wrist (except at night ;-).

There are a lot of little "things" that
no photo can show, which make wearing this watch such an incredible pleasure. For example, the way the case and crystal curve around the wrist and the way the oval hour and minute track "animates" the telling of time because the hands are much closer to 2...
Thank you, Salman!
My hands are definitely flattered by your words, but they refuse to work for anyone else than me! 😂🙏🏼🌼 Cheers, Emmanuel
Great Shot
Great picture Emmanuel, showing both the beauty of the watch, as well as demonstrating that it can be worn casually with Jeans as you model it! Super photo!
Thank you so much! It definitely can be worn casually:
in fact, I wear it daily and I almost never wear anything else than jeans from October to April! Best, Emmanuel
I am the same.
This actually caused me some problems last semester, because I had to wear non-denim trousers every Tuesday (never mind why). I scarcely knew what to do! All my teaching is done in jeans.
That would have been a real problem for me too!
Exactly like you, all my teaching is done in jeans... Best, Emmanuel
I did!
I place my iPhone, facing me, on a stand and use a mirror to see how the image is framed (I took the photo of my setup below with my wife's phone). I set the timer in the camera app for 5 seconds and take the picture. It can take me up to 10 tries for a s...
I love it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I actually may copy your idea, as I love those pocket shots, and I don't know anybody patient enough to get a clean picture without reflections 😅
Thank you so much!
This setup doesn't need much training and gives satisfying results, as you will see by yourself! Best, Emmanuel
Thank you so much, Bruckner!
Sweet spot indeed: this watch really resonates with me. Best, Emmanuel
Hey, who needs that Chopard Heritage Grand Cru when you have that?
Me, apparently, as I have both the PP 5098R and the Chopard. Bu then again, I'm a shaped case fanatic. ;-) My pocket greets your pocket. ...
Thanks a lot for your pocket greetings!
I love your 5098R too. And I also have a soft spot for shaped watches and calibers! Best, Emmanuel
It makes me so happy to see this shot and read your words mon ami 😉
Not only this photo is simply perfect but also reading your words is bringing a big smile on my face ! I remember your visit to our friend for trying the rose gold version, then your hunt for this watch, and how thrilled you were when you got it (I am sur...
You are so kind, Mike!
Your words bring me joy. Yes, it was a nice little “adventure” and I’m glad we shared it! I guess this watch is “me” somehow indeed, because it gives me a very unique feeling. Have a great weekend. Best, Emmanuel
I love this reference.
I got it when it first came out but I found it too small for my wrist. It looks great on yours. Nice pic too!
Thank you! It’s a pleasure to see that
this timepiece gets the love it deserves. But, given its dimensions, I’m not surprised that it’s a better fit for smaller wrists like mine than for larger ones! Best, Emmanuel
I really like the style of this watch 👍🏼
and as I'm a fan of chronographs I ended up with something similar but totally different 😉 Sorry for posting this pic in the PP forum 🫣 ...
Wow! This is a very beautiful one!
Thanks a lot for sharing. Is the case back solid? Best, Emmanuel
Thanks Emmanuel 🙏🏻
Yes, it's a solid caseback. It's a Lemania 1870 inside. So not as high end as your's. But considering the price tag it's all fine 😉 ...
All very fine indeed.
A nice solid caseback is much better than a useless see-through one, imo.
