Archetypal's selection.

[Archetypal]

The collection has grown over the past couple of years (funny that...) so I thought it about time to combine a couple of my hobbies and photograph a few of the favs. I set up a cheap as chips light box to diffuse as best I could. Lots of room for improvement, but Im happy in capturing the beauty I see in the pieces. I intend to add to this thread over time, but for now this is a cross section of the type of watches I enjoy. Love to hear your comments.

 

Cheers, Arch.

@martijnp - Thanks, I bought my 386 from a local dealer in Shanghai, although I'm certian its the version 1.1 that you can source from several of our T.D's.

 

@sgtguk - Thanks friend! Although they never made a "1-1" of the 500114, the rep is a nice dress watch in its own right, even with the obvious flaws.

 

@relaxman - Cheers, next session I will take a shot of the set up. Its simple, a dark room and a combo of white paper, tracing paper, desk lamps and a translucent box plus lots of experimenting.

I have the DLC version too, I love it that much. Versatile piece no doubt!
