your photo makes me wonder what happened to my dad's pocket watch. I have been feeling nostalgic for the past few days and this brought back good memories.
The monochrome works well for this pocket watch. It makes me think of a long passage of time. Color would not have allowed that to stretch out so well.
This is just lovely in monochrome and so apropos for the subject matter. I like the light reflection off of the metal in a couple of places. Great closeup.

Grew up in a small Georgia town with a desire to see some of the places I had read about and many I had not. I moved to Alaska and lived there for about ten years. My jobs took me to many parts of the state including Barrow, Nome, Kodiak Island and many more. I have also lived in California, Oregon and now Washington state.
Let this be the story of the journey so far.

Hi. My first time here. Just dropping by to say that you have a lovely monochrome.
As a nurse, a watch is very essential and it is one of my 'gadgets'. Can't work without a watch on my pocket or a wristwatch.
Beautiful picture. I love those oldfashioned pocketwatches.
It seems to be floating in water but I'm sure it isn't!
oh this is a pocket watch.the workmanship has endured till this day. quality
Wonderful!
Time is gold as well as with the memories of your Granddad. Aren't they're one of the most sweetest person?

What a beautiful watch in monochrome!
Time passes, and together with the title the photo tells a whole story.
That watch was made for monochrome, Judy. Great job, as usual. I like being able to see the shadow of the hands. I also hope you are feeling better...

I would rather say it is now in the morning due to the B&W.
I have this thing for clocks... pocket watches included!
Your eye composed this one perfectly. Nice contrast and perfect for B&W.
What a lovely keepsake. The mono, crisp and clarity is spotless!
I used to have an Elgin, Judy---many years ago...

Elgin, is a name I recognize. You've made a wonderful keepsake photo of your grandfather's watch.

Very very beautiful watch.
What a lovely keepsake. A wonderful monochrome image!
Perfect shot of a great subject!
Beautiful photo of your Grandfathers pocket watch, it looks perfect in black and white. It must mean a lot to have his wonderful timepiece.
Nifty photo. Reminds me of Alice in Wonderland the way you have it protrayed.
That is perfect!
