Fan Lord said: Publication guide
Recently, the topic of high-quality human men has become popular, and the protagonist who prides himself on high quality combs his meticulous oil head, applies a pale foundation, poses greasy, and the indescribable style of painting is difficult not to make people think that they are ironic…
(For details, let’s search for it yourself)
。
However, within a few days of the fire, he was discovered by watch-savvy people that the Patek Philippe he had sunbathed was a fake watch, and it was ridiculously fake, because Patek Philippe had never launched or customized this work, and high-quality men instantly broke the work in a second.
When it comes to watching, you still have to look at it
A true “high-quality man” in the watch world
, such as the chairman of the Swiss Haute Horlogerie Foundation Asia, Chen Kaisun
（Carson Chan）
Sir is very representative. He is a watch expert and collector from Hong Kong, China, and a well-known watch blogger on Ins.
Why is he a “high-quality man” in the watch industry?
Because as a watch expert, Carson is very keen to give you popular science watches and related knowledge on Ins, and the account @watchprofessor can almost be called a small watch encyclopedia, whether it is the latest released watch or a variety of excellent products have appeared here.
For example, the Patek Philippe 1518 collected by the bezel boss Biver who was written by Fan Lord before, and the double tourbillon watch worth 12.8 million yuan launched by the niche independent watchmaking brand Purnell, etc., from parameters to prices, will be serious to everyone to popularize science.
His own watch collection is also very rich, not only the collection value of more than 10 million, but also a lot of hard goods, personal account @thecarsonchan often post the “WOTD” wearing watches
(Watch worn today)
As a watch bezel boss, his “posture” of posting watches is really powerful, whether it is choosing a watch or taking photos, the taste is very high, and you can know at a glance that he is a senior player.
Today, Lord Fan will give you an inventory of the watch posture of this “high-quality male in the watch industry” to see how to post the watch, so that people can feel that you are a high-end player who understands watches~
Pose 1: Take the watch as the center and pay attention to clothing matching
Entry-level AKA Simple level
Let’s start with the entry level, which is the least difficult to operate, which is relatively simple, focusing on the watch and the clothes you wear
(i.e. exposed sleeves look simple and comfortable)
This gesture Carson is usually used in popular science watches, mainly to clearly present the watch, especially when sunking niche or excellent watches, directly to the dial. The watch itself is enough to grab the camera, but the combination of suit and shirt still adds a lot of points~
For example, he popularized the Vacheron Constantin Year of the Ox limited watch at the beginning of the year, this platinum model is limited to only 12 pieces worldwide, which is very precious, and the clear hand-drawing is enough, and the coffee-colored knitwear can also highlight the watch.
The limited edition of 100 Cartier Privé Tank Asymétrique watches launched in 2020 was also posted for the first time. The dial is tilted 30 degrees to the right, and the original rectangular case becomes diamond-shaped, which is very chic. Although the background is relatively simple and crude, the suit and shirt match the temperament of this watch very well~
There is also this superb – Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime 6300A, which sold for a sky-high price of $31 million in 2019, breaking the record of Paul Newmandy Tona and becoming the world’s most expensive watch, and there is no problem with the clear “face photo”~
Advance class
Entering the class is not only to consider whether the clothes on camera are appropriate, but also to consider the matching of clothes and watches, as well as the coordination of the background, creating a casual but high-class feeling, which adds a lot of points.
For men in the workplace, they may wear more shirts. White shirts are more versatile, such as Vacheron Constantin’s vintage simple design vintage watch, or the romantic Jaeger-LeCoultre Excellence Traditional Master watch, a variety of styles of watches and white shirts are almost a perfect choice.
This BR 01 Cyber Skull watch from the Swiss watch brand Bellace, the skull dial looks very steampunk, the shape design also incorporates the elements of stealth fighters, very unique and novel, and the versatile white shirt is also quite coordinated, and the clean background is also a plus.
Square watches and casual clothing can also be matched with elegant temperament, the elegant watch on the left is Jaeger-LeCoultre’s new Reverso Tribute Duoface double-sided flip watch, the color of the strap and clothes still echo; On the right, this TAG Heuer Ref.1133 Monaco square case blue disc chronograph, a watch worn by Steve McQueen in the movie “Le Mans”, was estimated at more than $1 million at Fullis auction house last year.
If you want to reflect the gentlemanly style, a suit and a sophisticated and elegant watch are the perfect match. On the left is an electric blue flyback chronograph from the Swiss independent watchmaking brand Henri Moser Speedie, while on the right is the Panerai Radium Demeier series 8 Days PAM 992.
A restrained and low-key and timeless classic watch, it is also very good to match with the blue striped pants with a very retro gentleman’s tone, and the striped pants are very comfortable as a background~ The one on the left is Longines’ classic replica series chronograph, and the one on the right is Lange & Söhne’s new Lange 1 World Time watch this year.
Another example is the new Master Control series Memovox alarm timer watch released by Jaeger-LeCoultre last year, the two-tone blue sun-radiated pattern dial, which can show different luster under different lights, very elegant and attractive, with white shirts and dark gray suits, which can highlight the characteristics of the watch.
The black plate with a black suit, black background, and a small toy to add fun is also full of style.
In addition to the proper coordination of clothes, a pair of textured leather shoes and exquisite watches also complement each other.
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak as standard with the bezel boss, the gold case and stainless steel strap are already very elite, and with a shirt trousers and leather shoes, it is even more elite.
If you feel bored with raising your hand and taking a picture, you can also put your hand in your pocket like this. It is best to choose a younger, more casual watch, such as this Henri Moser & Cie. SWISS ALP watch, which has a traditional, mechanical interpretation of the shape of the smart watch, the appearance is very modern and stylish, and it is more natural to shoot~
Pose 2: Pay attention to the use of scenes and props
The second pose of high-quality watch is to make full use of the scene and some props to create a sense of atmosphere.
Take advantage of coordinated scenarios
The first and easiest thing to grasp is the scene, the basic urban landscape, natural landscape, etc. are relatively natural, have a certain story, find a good background, you don’t need to put too much effort into clothes.
Carson likes to pick this kind of cityscape as a background, such as this Universal Geneve Tri-Compax vintage watch, which contrasts strongly with the road and is visually comfortable.
There is also this Breitling Puya series B01 chronograph, the white dial and antique brown strap are very elegant, with wood, gray walls and other classical buildings as the background, also complement each other~
This Patek Philippe Complication Chronograph Series 5960, Carson put on a canvas strap, looks more sporty, and it goes well with the river view?
The sporty G-Shock is all black
GMW B5000
, When climbing the Great Wall, it is also full of atmosphere~
“Little Gold Watch” G-SHOCK
The retro and fashionable design is enduring, and it is very pleasant to take a picture when waiting for the plane~
This Rolex Chronograph 18078 gold watch is very rare, the most distinctive feature is that the dial is made of Burlwood material, brown and gold are more vintage, in front of the old but life alley, is also full of story.
Make good use of gadgets
In addition to the matching of clothes, he is also very good at using props, an umbrella, a bag or a newspaper can improve a lot of style.
Picking up a pen to do writing is also worth referring to.
Common laptops, the side is also very elegant, the same posture can easily get.
There are also holding handlebars, etc., which can naturally enrich the scene, and look beautiful and not boring~
Many times Carson directly uses the cup to play a supporting role, simple and filmed, students who don’t know where to put their hands when shooting watches can learn ~
Holding a coffee cup, or other cup with a handle, can not only highlight the watch, but also have a strong sense of scene.
Holding a cup on a reflective tabletop doubles the visual impact.
Green sweaters, Castrol cups in the same color, and newspapers spread out at random create a relaxed home atmosphere, and wearing a sophisticated retro Cartier Santos is very feeling.
In addition to the cup, using a can with a simple design as a prop, the effect is also barbaric.
The color of the strap flipped by Jaeger-LeCoultre echoes the chocolate powder of coffee, which is also very careful.
It’s not bad to use food as the background~ This Omega lunar watch is a classic pure black dial with a stainless steel case design, but Carson replaced it with a brown leather strap, which is quite suitable for commuting, and it is also appropriate to click a record before a work meal~
In addition to cups, Carson also loves cigars, and the habit of popular science continues in all aspects, explaining to everyone in detail from origin to taste in Ins.
For men, cigars are also a great supporting role for watching.
This Omega Speedmaster series Ultimate Chronometer, also known as the lunar watch because of his participation in six missions to the moon, the asymmetrical case and stepped dial create a sense of space science fiction, and it tastes great to dry with his favorite cigar and coffee.
Another Breitling looks more gorgeous, this is the aviation timing series B01 watch, the circular flight slide design is very conspicuous and recognizable, holding cigars, red wine to dry together, faintly revealing the temperament of the big guy~
If you don’t love cigars, of course, you can also find another way~ Like a motorcycle that men love, it is very cool to match with this omega lunar watch.
I have told you many times about taking photos with the steering wheel, and there is no need to say more about the degree of classicty~
The watch is paired with gloves, wrenches and other repair tools to double the mechanical beauty.
No hard photos of people
If you want to give your watch a hard photo without people, the combination of other small objects is very helpful to reflect the style and is more ceremonial.
Sunglasses, hat and tanning cream form a summer theme, both sunburned and very themed~
You can also expose some props like this, the main and secondary are clear, the composition is also good-looking, and the taste is immediately obvious~
Another example, compared with daily glasses, favorite cigars, with favorite watches, the most representative of their own items to take a group photo, this kind of play is also OG.
Pose 3: Group sun, sun with hobbies, create a sense of atmosphere
Group sun
If you happen to have a group of friends who love watch culture, gathering together to post a watch or something is also a win-win series.
Don’t care how powerful the watch is, the visual impact alone is very strong~
Men and women tan together, but also by the way to show a wave of love, niche brand watch Ikepod used to match couple watches is also very special and eye-catching~
Carson also has a Lange 1815 series watch that looks full of age, and the combination of the deep blue strap and gold bezel is also rich in retro temperament, and the good buddies’ more modern and technological watches are in strong contrast ~
Taking a drink is also a natural and convenient way to bask in the “different colors” panda plate with your good buddies.
Tanning with hobbies creates a sense of atmosphere
Carson is not only a fanatic of watches, he is very obsessed with all mechanical things, collecting motorcycles, being a racing driver, shining in his hobbies, and his lifestyle is quite advanced and temperament~ So usually occasionally expose his hobbies, but also highlight your taste.
Motorcycle players love their own baby bikes, and Carson is no exception, his one is the British brand Velocette Viper, a very classic design known for good performance and handling.
It goes well with his favorite vintage watch~
On weekends, I rode my motorcycle around the south of Hong Kong Island in search of a good café and a competent Cafe Racer.
When I have time, I often practice on the ring road, and I am very happy to listen to the sound of the engine~
He will also post scenes of himself repairing motorcycles, mechanical beauty double.
Entering the vintage pit, Carson even likes retro sports cars, this red Porsche 964 is very rare, used to appear in old Hong Kong movies, and now it is also a collectible model.
He favored this very old-looking bright yellow retro car, from the Toyota 1987 Celica GT, to the 1974 Celica TA22, to the Celica RA33 “updated” several in succession.
He also has a gray Lotus Elise S1, the lightweight body design is very attractive, Carson is also very fond of this car, basking over and over again~
He is also an enthusiast of leather shoes, many shoes are from Berluti, each pair will be carefully waxed, different colors with different styles of watches, is a quality man is right.
Well, how do tasteful “human high-quality men” talk to you about how to post the table, have you got so many postures for the table?
