If you’ve been visiting PuristSPro for some time you’ve probably come across the jaw-dropping images taken by our next featured community member. Jocke’s watch pictures are hard to miss. If you happen to own a Rolex and have ever attempted to take picture...  

He's one of the assets of our forum. His pictures are not only awesome, but they help us to have a better idea on a Watch. How many people discovered or re discovered the Yacht Master through his pictures? A lot! Best, Ping and thank you for such a nice r... 

We are lucky to have Jocke as part of our community and greatly appreciate his contributions.

...and thanks to Jocke for his regular contributions. The interview was reminiscent of the old 'POTW' series*; we should think about bringing that back so that we get to know more about other of our fellow desperados! Cheers, pplater. (* "Purist of the We... 

I do have another member interview coming up. ;)

......and fabulous "colour" on Jocke the Man. really enjoyed this ..... many thanks

Jocke's photography caught my eye the first time I saw one of his glashutte original shots. I continue to be impressed, and more and more curious about how he takes those amazing photos. Great also to hear his perspective on collecting and what he admires... 

Thanks for your comments!

& the quality of his photos are truly amazing. Good to have got to known him better. Best Mally

And his passion to share them with us here! Excellent post Ping! Now we got to know Jocke better and his passion for watch photography. Thank you Ping and Jocke for this interview. Appreciate the efforts and sharing Cheers Robin

I think many people share similar sentiments.

In both cases a passionate watch guy with the skills of a surgeon and eye of Ansel Adams. Great member of the community. Bill

It has been a pleasure over all these years 2006 and beyond to enjoy your pictures and great technical reports. Best Bill

... for letting us know a bit more about you! Jocke´s photography is simply awesome! I always get admired about lightning technique, composition, and the "mistery" ambiance created around the watch photographed with that incredible arsenal of props he emp... 

"How on earth did Jocke do this"! ...I have often had the same thought. Yes looking forward to seeing what other compositions he has in store.

and I'm very happy when you guys like my work.

. . . Jocke's camera equipment was quite modest until relatively recently. It's only been in the last few years that he's been using an SLR with a dedicated macro lens; prior, it was a Nikon Coolpix that served his purposes. I've said this before, and it ... 

Thank you for your comments. I was meaning to ask you for a quote so thanks for giving a great one here. Hope all is good.

It was only a few years since I start using DSLR. You can still do a great work with a CoolPix but you can control a DSLR better and that is the secret to learn how the camera work and how the lightning affect the result. I often get mails from guys that ... 

I\'ve taken many thousands of pictures but what you just said SHOUTED to me "you can control a DSLR better and that is the secret to learn how the camera work and how the lighting affect the result" It\'s the light. There is a subject (watch) of course, b...  

Thanks a lot Ping and congratz for your work Jocke. Looking forward to see many more pics in the future! Cheers, Mark

Stunning photos! Please, keep them coming! :) Best Blomman

very interesting to discover the man behind the pictures !

Ping, Another work of art by bringing "to the stage" one of the best watch photographer ever. Jocke, along the years, developed a photo style that is unique. Look to a pic and we can see his wonderful style. Cheers, Nilo

Most of the rest of us are in awe of your work, Nilo and Jocke Cheers, Cazalea
