    Dear IWC fellows,

    I don't intend on collecting watches as I like to wear them regularly. With each new watch, it becomes more difficult to select the one watch to wear..

    That's why I own only 2 watches and a beautiful Atmos clock.

    But...

    Watch industry makes us life difficult to refuse on buying watches by bringing new interesting design and technology on the market.

    After some time waiting and some struggling with the expensd, I cracked last saturday and bought my second IWC to bring with me on my vacation in Provence. So I am sitting next to the pool wanting to share the Provence setting and new watch with you. I do only have my iPad with me: if you can tell me how I can post picture directly from iPad to the forum, I will be more than happy to share picture and unvail my latest acquisition.

    Cheers,
    Jean Luc

    looking forward to your pics !

    Picture Uploading - A Snappy Guide
    To upload a pic to the forum, you will need to first upload the picture onto a hosting site. This can be space provided by your internet service provider (your account may already come with one with a limited size). Whatever the case, the pic has to reside on a permanently live server and cannot be on your harddrive.

    Quick Step One: most people sign up for a free host at www.photobucket.com
    Quick Step Two: Upload your pic, preferably in 640x480 size
    Quick Step Three: Look for this box below and click on the URL beside IMG Code, and paste it directly in ‘Your Comment’ box when writing a new comment in the forum.
    i1120.photobucket.com/albums/l497/vanhalen812/Admin%20Stuff/photobucketimagecodeslinks.jpg
    Quick Step Four: check, check, check that you have successfully uploaded the pic (like I have done with the image directly above :) by using the preview button i.e. clicking on the ‘tick’, just above the ‘Your Comment’ box. And you’re done !

    Salut Jean Luc,

    now THAT fits, beautiful watch, great surroundings and an excellent wine I suppose to compliment the scenery. Have a great time and thanks for sharing.
