During the year of the dragon, what else could possibly be painted on a Chinese watch? This simple Shanghai watch was a great canvas for a dragon; though the real challenge is to compose a pose for the dragon to retain it's power in such a small space, and still be able to capture the key details.
The yellow color was chosen to be as vibrant as possible and stand out against the black outline. The dragon symbolises power and wisdom and is a symbol that features throughout so many cultures across the world.
