A few weeks ago we had a 48h competition in our camera club where we had to take, process and submit one image on each of 5 subjects. One of the topics was 'Old technology' and I submitted this of my 1973ish Heuer non-Viceroy Autavia 11630 on a db10 strap and a copy of 'Stuff' -

I'm chuffed to say this won the section, and I came 3rd overall in the comp!

Mark

Thanks folks.
I wonder how many years it'll be before the Apple Watch qualifies as 'old technology'!
