Perhaps you can tell something about a President, cabinet member, CEO, by the watch that he or she wears. Anyway, you can have fun guessing who is wearing these watches. For the answers:

Adams Picture Library (APL) likes things a bit different!

Sometimes they find that a design project requires something more conceptual rather than obvious. This opens the door to a more diverse range of image that can inspire, amuse and brighten any printed material.

As we all know a photograph can attract, repel, astonish and intrigue the on-looker. Best of all a good image causes a reaction and makes you think and want to read what it's all about... mission accomplished!!

Use their online search facility to find conceptual or design images or contact their in-house team for assistance.
