A Five-Year Anniversary Gift, Painted on Two Watch Dials

A gentleman came to me a few months before his and his girlfriend's fifth anniversary. He wanted a gift neither of them would forget: two hand-painted watches, each carrying a photograph of the two of them, one for him and one for her.

He picked two photos that captured moments that mattered to them, and I painted them into the dials layer by layer under the microscope, in acrylic.

I can't describe how much I love them, they're true works of art.

We're really happy, they're gorgeous.

Thank you again for all your help, professionalism, and commitment. We will wear these watches with pride.
