Description:
A historical tour in 100 images of the car as both subject and creative vehicle in photography.
Undeniably one of the most influential innovations of the modern world, the car has revolutionized manufacturing and transformed how we move, forever changing our landscapes, cities, environments and economies. With each revolution, each transformation, have come almost unmatched impacts upon wider culture, changing not only the way we live, but the ways we look at and consider the world around us. The influence of the car upon photography and the work created by photographers since the early 20th century can be clearly traced through the V&A's photography collection.
Autofocus explores the deep cultural significance and impact of the car on the history of photography, playing a role both as subject matter and as a genuine creative vehicle - the means by which photographers have accomplished many of their great works. Written by Marta Weiss, Senior Curator of Photographs at the V&A, and published to coincide with the opening in November 2019 of the exhibition 'Cars: Accelerating the Modern World', Autofocus presents over 100 photographs, supported by commentaries and an introduction of c. 1,500 words, that span from the early years of the automobile to the present day. For both photography and car-loving audiences, Autofocus illustrates the ascendance of the car as a cultural icon, and the ways in which it has shaped the world around and ahead of us.

Great watch. Not too big, has a second hand and a light.
Size: 25mm, Color: Silver-Tone/Silver-Tone/White/A/25mm
I am a nurse, so this watch is perfect for administration of timed meds. The band is too big for my small wrist so I bought a leather band. I was not able to figure out how to remove segments from the original band, but a jeweler would be able to do this. It is pretty small, compared to the bigger watch faces that seem to be popular now.

Band a little snug, but great watch
Size: 25mm, Color: Two-Tone/Gold-Tone/White/25mm
I love Timex watches. This one is very attractive. The stretch band is a little tight. It is also hard to set the date in the little tiny date box. The packaging was minimal; looks like it wouldn’t take any rough handling. But the watch itself works great and is easy to read.

Classic & classy
Size: 25mm, Color: Silver-Tone/Silver-Tone/White/25mm
This watch was the perfect gift. The wrist band was a great fit. The backlight makes it easy to see the time in the dark. You can't beat a Timex.

GREAT WATCH!
Size: 25mm, Color: Two-Tone/Gold-Tone/White/25mm
This is a basic but practical watch with no bells and whistles. Have tried many sport watches that were difficult to set and program various features. It has an expansion band with combined gold and silver accents, so it goes with everything! Finally a watch that is attractive and keeps good time. In summary, it's just a good timepiece for every day wear.

Expansion band proved a disappointment
Size: 25mm, Color: Two-Tone/Two-Tone/White/25mm
I shopped many watches before I decided on this Timex model. I've been wearing Timex watches for the last several years and have found them to be reliable and reasonably priced, so I was pretty much set on buying a Timex. I have one of their Weekender models with a couple of different straps, which I alternate depending on what I'm wearing, and I really like it. I also had a dressy model with the same easy-to-read dial that had an expansion band, and it died on me after several years, so I bought this watch as a replacement. The watch works fine, and I like the easy-to-read dial and also the fact that it has the Indiglo light. Plus, the watch is attractive. I was disappointed, however, in the band. The expansion band on my old watch fit perfectly, and the edges of the band were nicely rounded and smooth so that it was very easy and comfortable to put on and take off. However, the band on this new watch seems a little bit smaller, so it tends to pinch a bit. Also, the edges are sharper, which makes the watch rather uncomfortable to put on and remove. This was a let down. I don't know if these differences are due to a decline in quality control, an effort to reduce costs, or what. I considered returning the watch and buying a different model, but since there wasn't actually anything wrong with the watch, I knew I'd have to pay return shipping, and I didn't want to invest that extra money. So I kept the watch. But I'm not entirely happy with it, solely because of the band. Of course, that's the problem with shopping online--you can't try it on before you buy. If you have a thin wrist, this band may be fine for you, but if you have an average or larger wrist, you may likewise be dissatisfied.
