    Gentleman,

    As you might know, I have been busy lately with a new photo series. Within these photo's I want to capture women wearing mens watches.

    The reason why I started this photo series is because I noticed that women around me working in the watch-industry are mostly wearing mens watches. Main reason for that is because they like the more "robust and confident" appearance on the wrist as some of them describe it . Besides that, I really liked the idea of showcasing these watches on a womans wrist. Just because that's something different. Doing something different is something which is always welcomed. For now, I will bring at least three photo series and today I can show you the very first one! :)

    Before I show you the pictures, I have to say that the day we made the pictures it was really bad weather. I was cold...rainy...just your typical Dutch weather. This being said, my model for this first series, Nanique Prins, was a real professional and the pictures turned out really nicely . I am really happy with the results and hope you will all like the pictures just as much as we do.

    Enough talking, let's get to the pictures!

    Great, atmospheric pictures! The lady and the watches fit quite well together: I can understand that your lady-colleagues prefer gents watches, and certainly these Vintage Collection ones. Looking forward to the other series!

    Kind regards,

    Very artifully done...

    And a reminder how good some of these watches can/do also look on a ladies wrist.

    Thanks for this creative series of post Koen.

    It took me a while to figure out the beautiful young woman was wearing a watch, let alone an IWC. :-)
    Terrific pictures. Congrats.
