It makes me smile every time I see pics of Vianney or his watches, it brings back great memories in my mind…
...your pics are not crappy at all ! On the contrary they give quite a good idea of how Vianney's watches look on the wrist: so original, interesting from the horological point of view, and aesthetically wonderful.
