Very nice VC for sure...
Of course 6S is nice and magnifying lens gives interesting results but thank God you can't get the same result as with a real camera with a great lens and pro lighting. So yes it is a question of material + also know-how. I agree with you Jocke and Nilo are real experts. Unfortunately neither one nor the other are really close to Geneva or Paris so as to organize a photo training session... Keep trying, the outcome is often quite nice even now Alkiro.
Best,
Mike
Few macro shots of my Vacheron Constantin Triple Date Moonphase
Tried to do my best with my iPhone 6S and my both magnifying glasses as usual. But hard to highlight the very nice dial of this timepiece. Need to take some lessons with Jocke and Nilo ;-) Hope you will enjoy. Sexy Moonphase Maltese Cross and date indicat...
A very handsome piece!
Thanks for sharing your photos. I enjoyed looking at these. KR
Beautiful shots
Your lovely photos really show off the nice details of the dial. Great job and thank you for sharing these. respo
Thank you Respo for your kind words.
This dial is relatively hard to take in picture as it offers a lot of reflects and contrast with the light. Best wishes Alkiro
We can use loupe
But be honest, it's so uncomfortable. While macros are the best way to enjoy the superb finishing of our watches....and share them with our fellows.
Very nice VC for sure...

Thank you very much Mike for your kind words
I agree with you but, nevertheless, I think within the next 5 years, smart phones will be closer and closer of camera results. And, to be honest, smart phones are easier to use no? ;-) Best wishes Alkiro
Smartphones easier to use than full camera set, yes for sure there is no doubt
and their qualty is indeed getting better and better, but it's not actual photography. It just depends what you want to do, what result you expect... But neither in 5 nor in 10 years you will be able to get pics like the ones Jocke is offering us to see. ...
Yes I am agree with you. I know that when you want to exceed a certain level or quality in photography you have to use a true camera instead of a smartphone.
And equipment is not sufficient. Photography is a true art so you have to learn and learn every time for sure (it works for many other fields of course). But for the moment (may be one day in the future), I don\'t want to invest in a camera + equipment. M...
I can easily understand...
Even without talking the financial investment involved (which can rapidly become an issue...), photography can be a nice hobby but takes time and is hard work even if you like it ; but it can also be pain in the ... if you don't enjoy it. It takes a lot o...
Many thanks Alex
Sure this timepiece has a perfect dial for macro shots. Best wishes Alkiro
This one is aging very nicely.....

You are right Edward
This lady has still a lot of charme and ages very well. Best wishes Alkiro

Very good is fun. Excellent is much hard work. Some shots just now with my clip-on and phone Now a "real" camera Beautiful Vacheron that you have there. Cazalea ...
Missed this one...
Great shots, Alkiro! You really captured the details well and a splendid watch it is, too if you don\'t mind me saying so Seems like you have many hidden gems in your collection!
Many thanks my friend
I have few others more in my little collection ;-) Best wishes Alkiro
Gorgeous...
...my favorite VC. I first saw one (pre-owned) in a shop in Palm Beach many years ago. Alas, I was \'poor\' at the time, but I still regret not selling everything I had to buy it. It was YG and the color of the blue in the sky is still the most beautiful ...
Many thanks mdg for your kind words
Well, I hope you will have the opportunity to buy your young dream one day. You are true about the blue of the Moonphase. It is stunning. And the dial too ;-) Best wishes Alkiro
With dials like these, VC goes higher and higher in my esteem
Thanks for the wonderful shots Alkiro! I hope you enjoy this classic for many years to come, Alex
Yes Alex, VC can make very nice dials... and watches of course ;-) Many thanks you like it and for your kind words
Have a nice weekend Best wishes Alkiro
Great subject, spectacular shots!
...or is it the other way around? Well done! Thank you for sharing!
