Question about pictures of your Rolex

I was wondering do you prefer to see photos of the members watches on their wrist or off. I realize some photos look great in action shots such as swinging a golf club, or with your hand holding the yoke of an airplane. But I also like the simple look of a watch in its case, or on a display stand, or on a nice clean background..and not to sound chauvinistic such as maybe the cleavage of a woman's bust ( just throwing out an idea guys ). In any case just wanted to get others thoughts.

I don't like seeing photos hairy hands or any hands in general

I have seen some fantastic well-shot photos of watches around wrists, in front
of outstanding and/or relevant background.

I have also seen 100's of outstanding photos of Rolex's in so many different
complimentary backgrounds, also opposite coloured backgrounds, which make
the watch stand out even more.

I seen some in ice, floating on top of a creamy beverage, partially buried underground, in it's original box, so many places. An analogy that car enthusiasts who polish their car, then take photos of their pride and joy, some of these photos are amazing. Similar can be said from the photos of Rolex's I have seen in many forum posts.

The fun part is taking the photos of your own Rolex. Find similar colour schemes so what you already have, and start with that.
