Stop looking at your watch for a minute and take a second look at this picture.
I think I spent about an hour editing this picture of my friend Julian Berry enjoying a glass of Vermut and it was worth every second. My friend really enjoys his watches so I thought I would focus on this beautiful Christopher Ward C65 Trident Diver that he was wearing when we finally got catching up after six months. Julian and I worked together a few years ago and it felt like years since we last saw each other although it was probably February when I last saw him when he invited me to see The Reverse Charge Callers´ first gig, which was great.
We were in lockdown soon afterward and this was Julian's first venture into Madrid since March.
With a splash of Ginebra, (Gin) from a perfume bottle and a splash of something else, the bar served up cool Vermut as I have never seen before and I definitely want to go back there.
There is no turning back the hands of time on 2020 but the photo above is actually a collection of 40 pictures edited together to create a .gif which I will try and make a video about later on which will explain the process.
A lot of delicate work and time has gone into that picture, just like in a Swiss-made Christopher Ward watch.
