Let's see your watch and fountain pen photos

[ducatisteve]

The battery is dead on the ol' camera....so bad iPhone snapshots it is....I'll take real pictures if anyone wants. The collection of both watches and pens are not as distinguished as most here, but the sure do make me happy! The Tag and the VP are my daily drivers.

 

Watches:

Seiko Map Meter

Tag Heuer Aquaracer

Nike Lance 4

 

Pens:

Pilot/Namiki Vanishing Point

Waterman Graduate

Lamy Safari

Waterman Phileas

Two great American brands beginning with 'W': Waterman and Waltham

 

Assuming you haven't been... If you ever come to Boston, the Waltham Watch factory has been converted into an Industrial Museum. Some really great exhibits, including tons of space dedicated to the watch company. They were truly breaking new ground both in production techniques and products.

That is a very nice watch! I like the pen too.

What's the diameter of the DJR? I like the clean looking dial.

38mm is a good size and is about all I can handle.... curse of the small wrists :-)

Nice stuff. I particularly like the pic with the speedmaster.

 

 

 

Here are a couple of fleamarket finds...

From time to time I look at this topic. What I prefer are those pics with age match: modern or vintage, watch+pen+paraphernalia+background.

Some interesting could be vintage pens+modern watch, but I don't like old vintage watch + too modern pen.

What's in the hand.

Interesting point. I agree that can be a good way to make a pic... although perhaps a little limiting for the vintage stuff. The story behind the pic could end up being the same each time... sort of like a snapshot of history.

 

These pics seem to have a few themes:

stuff I carry every day,

stuff I collect,

fetishes,

stuff that is hard to photograph (technical challenge)

stuff that is linked by some other theme

 

Not many of these pics really get to the point of "still life" and I guess the photographer doesn't always think much about the ingredients in the pic.

Two of my pens and watches.

Enjoy!

Ah ladies, where are your watches? (Although Deirdre's iPhone is a sexy thing)

 

Here's my little contribution.

Longines Dolce Vita pink MOP dial and Caran d'Ache Lagoon MOP LE. Yes, I love mother of pearl.

 

And to the lovely gentlemen who have posted on this thread, you have some very impressive toys *cough*Kevin*cough*

 

Pravda: that Patek is stunning, I can't stop staring at the photo.
