Photography system according to claim 1, wherein the wristwatch holder comprises a holding portion and wherein the arch-shaped portion is rotatably mounted on the holding portion such that the arch-shaped portion can be rotated around a second axis being perpendicular to the first axis. 3. Photography system according to claim 1, wherein the arch-shaped portion comprises a flexible material in order to stretch a watch strap of a watch being mounted on the arch-shaped portion. 4. Photography system according to claim 1, wherein a sidewall of the chamber comprises a through-hole and wherein the photography system further comprises a tube having a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end being attached to said through-hole. 5. Photography system according to claim 4, wherein the tube has a conical or cylindrical or bent shape. 6. Photography system according to claim 4, wherein the tube is located between the chamber and the camera unit such that the camera unit is configured to take the series of pictures of the wristwatch mounted on the wristwatch holder through the tube. 7. Photography system comprising: —a rotating unit configured to rotate around a first axis, —an illumination unit, —a wristwatch holder, the wristwatch holder being mounted on the rotating unit, —a camera unit, and —a control unit, wherein the control unit is configured to control the camera unit and the rotating unit such that a series of pictures of a wristwatch mounted on the wristwatch holder can be generated automatically, the pictures of the series of pictures showing the wristwatch in different angles with respect to the camera un it, and wherein the wristwatch holder comprises an arch-shaped portion adapted for mounting a wristwatch such that a backside of a watchcase of the wristwatch is exposed; further comprising a chamber, wherein an interior of the chamber comprises the wristwatch holder; wherein the illumination unit comprises at least one light dispersive element, wherein the at least one light dispersive element is forming at least one part of one or more sidewalls of the chamber, of the top of the chamber and/or of the bottom of the chamber. 8. Photography system comprising: —a rotating unit configured to rotate around a first axis, —an illumination unit, —a wristwatch holder, the wristwatch holder being mounted on the rotating unit, —a camera unit, and - a control unit, wherein the control unit is configured to control the camera unit and the rotating unit such that a series of pictures of a wristwatch mounted on the wristwatch holder can be generated automatically, the pictures of the series of pictures showing the wristwatch in different angles with respect to the camera unit, and wherein the wristwatch holder comprises an arch-shaped portion adapted for mounting a wristwatch such that a backside of a watchcase of the wristwatch is exposed; further comprising a chamber, wherein an interior of the chamber comprises the wristwatch holder; wherein the illumination unit comprises at least one illumination element comprising at least one light source, wherein the at least one illumination element is attached to one or more inner sidewalls of the chamber, to the inner top surface of the chamber and/or to the inner bottom surface of the chamber. 9. Photography system according to claim 8, wherein the at least one light source is dimmable. 10. Photography system according to claim 9, wherein the at least one illumination element comprises an array of 9 clusters of light sources. 11. Method according to claim 10, wherein the array of 9 clusters is ire a 3×3 arrangement. 12. Photography system according to claim 8, wherein the at least one illumination element comprises an array of light sources or an array of clusters of light sources. 13. Method for generating a multi-view picture of a wristwatch comprising the following steps: providing a photography system comprising a wristwatch holder being mounted on a rotating unit and a camera unit, wherein the wristwatch holder comprises an arch-shaped portion adapted for mounting a wristwatch such that a backside of a watchcase of the wristwatch is exposed,mounting a wristwatch on the wristwatch holder,rotating the rotating unit around a first axis,generating a series of pictures of the wristwatch mounted on the wristwatch holder by means of the camera unit, wherein the pictures of the series of pictures show the wristwatch at different angles with respect to the camera unit, andmerging the pictures to a multi-view picture and/or movie of the wristwatch further comprising the step of setting at least one parameter of an illumination unit of the photography system based on at least one of the following: model of the wristwatch, color of the wristwatch, shape of the wristwatch, size of the wristwatch, user preference; further comprising a chamber, wherein an interior of the chamber comprises the wristwatch holder; wherein the illumination unit comprises at least one light dispersive element, wherein the at least one light dispersive element is attached to one or more inner sidewalls of the chamber, to the inner top surface of the chamber and/or to the inner bottom surface of the chamber. 14. Method according to claim 13, further comprising a step of checking the correct placement of the wristwatch on the wristwatch holder using a viewfinder displayed on a display unit of the photography system. 15. Method according to claim 13, further comprising a step of uploading the series of pictures and/or the merged picture to at least one server in a wide-area-network. 16. Method according to claim 15, wherein the wide-area-network is the Internet. 17. Method according to claim 13, further comprising a step of concatenating meta information of the watch with the merged picture of the watch. 18. Method according to claim 17, further comprising uploading the meta information and the merged picture to at least one server in a wide-area-network. 19. Method according to claim 13, wherein at least one parameter of an illumination unit is determined using at least one of the following: a light sensor, a brightness meter, the camera unit, a second camera unit. 20. Method according to claim 13, wherein the photography system is the system of claim 1.
