We\u2019ve all got some nice watches (especially Jon: did you happen to know that he has a Rolex Explorer 1, which apparently he quite likes?) But how can you capture good photos of them? Luckily a few of our presenters at the Time to Unwind podcast have a strong background in photography, and they share a few of their most valuable tips on how to perfectly portray your watch in all its glory. Ben, Tim, and Anthony chat about how to take photos \u2013 and more importantly, how not to take photos \u2013 as well as what\u2019s been floating their respective boats this week.
