Excellent Born!

Your detailing is stunning, I never fail to be impressed!

The markings on the Breitling grabbed my attention and awe immediately, but the more I look at the others, the more I notice other, more subtle, but just as fantastic detailing such as the dials' textures on the Benzinger :shock:

p.s. Nice Forum Eddie :D

Griff,

99% of the paintings shown are commisisoned works (i.e. the commissioners paid me to paint what they would like.)

At the moment only the Glashuette one is left for sale.

If you're interested, please email me at born13@rocketmail.com Thanks.

Regards,
Born

Love the redness of the dial, cannot explain why, makes it interesting.
And love the way it seems to ?rise? behind the horizon ...
I am glad you avoided the 10-past-10 smiley horror.
You are definitely becoming more organic. I enjoy your work. :D
