Breguet

Thanks Jack....

I am a strong advocate of objectivity even though I let people know about my subjective views (if that makes any sense!). In that respect, even though I do not like what silicium could do to damage the watch industry, I will continue to show the watches in the best possible manner and in this case, the silicium material itself is unusual, high polished and coloured in a manner to bring some delight to the viewer.

Now, the only time I will not photograph or present a watch is when I personally feel the whole watch does not move me or brings out the wrong emotions in me (that BTW could be also due to bad experiences!).

In any case, once again you are very kind with your compliments. It is very much appreciated!

Cheers
Harry Tan

about the use of high tech materials in traditional watchmaking I must admit your pictures make it look awfully good. By the way, fantastic job capturing the texture of the guilloche; so often in press pictures the high degree of image manipulation done a...
