@changingtimes001 — F.P. Journe Invenit en Fecit
“I was trying to take photos on our kitchen table before dinner. I have a 6-year-old daughter who loves to “help” and she saw me adjusting the lighting in the room. For my last shot, she threw open the window and said “here daddy!” as I pressed the shutter button. Turns out she knows lighting better than her pops.”

@speedyfett — Omega Seamaster PloPof
“This is my Omega Seamaster 1200m PloProf. Living in Hawaii And having three little boys at home, I knew I needed a tough watch that could handle anything and everything. The PloProf always caught my eye with its beastly design and unapologetic funkiness. Although it’s not everyone’s cup of tea because it can’t be hidden under a dress shirt cuff, I really identify with it. I’m a big guy — 6′ 4″ — and the watch wears so comfortably on my wrist. The bright orange strap really pops when I’m at the beach and always receives attention. It’s a unique watch that matches our beach lifestyle perfectly, and for those terrified of its size remember that its lug-to-lug is even smaller than a 40mm steel Rolex so don’t be scared to give it a try. Aloha from Hawaii!”

@thehouseofwaxequations — Rolex Submariner 14060M
“My personal lockdown project has been to improve my watch photography. In reality, this was mainly to avoid sitting on the sofa endlessly watching Bond movies and eating crisps (potato chips), but it has turned out to be hugely enjoyable and has kept me entertained while imprisoned in the house. The goal: avoid the customary wrist shot, try something different, and experiment a little with lighting, something I’d never really done before.
“The photo started out with the Sub sitting on the watch roll you can see in the background. Then the Leica IIIf entered the scene — still too empty. This was followed by furiously scurrying around the house looking in boxes for anything useful. My first passport, a ten-pound note from my week in the Falkland Islands, some Argentinian currency (that’s a different story), military cufflinks my dad was given, and a registered letter from half a century ago. Each element with its own very personal story, put together to try and create a new one.”

@eternal_escapement — Halios Seaforth
“I spend a lot of time in nature, camping and fishing in generally rugged conditions. Being a vintage watch guy, I was always wary about wearing them for those activities so I wanted a bulletproof watch to wear and the fact it was designed here in Canada was definitely a selling point for me along with the beautiful blue sunburst dial ???”
Thanks for voting! This poll is now closed. The winner will be announced on Instagram @fratellowatches.
