Ming Thein

Last week we brought you the first in what we hope will be a series of phenomenal articles by the incredibly talented Ming Thein! If you missed this photographic essay on Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Tribute to the iconic Deep Sea Memovox please click here to read it as it’s definitely a must see (please be warned though, it contains some serious watch porn!)

As such, it gives us great pleasure to announce that Ming has agreed to become a regular contributor to the site, taking on the unofficial role of TWL’s Asia Correspondent.

According to Ming he is a physicist by training, although he has never actually worked in that field, and enjoys constantly stirring up trouble at local horological gatherings. One third of the time he dreams about the watches he’d like to own, another third he spends designing movements that might or might not work, and the rest of the time he can be found behind a camera living vicariously through somebody else’s collection or trying to make a living.

He lives in Kuala Lumpur, fights the eternal battle between more lenses or more watches, and additional photography work can be found at www.mingthein.com and www.flickr.com/mingthein.

Please join us in welcoming Ming to The Watch Lounge and we looking forward to sharing some more of his breathtaking photography with you in the very near future!
