... jumping with joy with a watch like that Richard!! Love your long exposure shots. Shows how accurately the second hands have jumped each second and with no "resonance" around each second either. By resonance, I mean it doesn't jump and vibrate a little...

I have the "older" chezard based one, and I have never worn it and kept as a safe queen, until I came across your thread, which gave me inspiration to wear it. Tried to take pics of it, but with my crappy photographic skills using a BB mobile, and the ref...
