Nice looking watch. If you turn off your flash it may help out. I take all my watch shots with no flash and hae pety god luck. Great watch, I think it is the first time I have seen one "in the flesh" in a picture. What year is your watch? It's an older model?

I'll try sans flash next time... Will probably have to find more light though.

It's a 2003 model. I very much prefer the older style hour markers. I PMed findo, he's already struck a deal on a B2, and mine seems to be having a problem...

I may post something in the help forum, but it's keeping fairly poor accuracy. My $200 automatic Seiko runs with better regularity. I've been wearing it every day since I got it, and it seems to vary between keeping up and loosing about 1-2 minutes a day. But it's not consistent, some times it can go for days without gaining or loosing, and they it can loose 2 minutes the next day. Sometimes paying attention to the seconds sub-dial, it looks like its running faster then slower...

I've always loved how busy these are.

For better pics pick up one of these: http://www.skaeser.com/servlet/Detail?no=586

That really is a very nice looking watch. Haven't seen a lot of them to date. Very busy which is what I like!

I totally agree with you that the older version (i.e. your one) is better looking than the later model. A lot of people find the older version just too busy, but I love it for that very reason!

I looked for one of these for a while a year or so back, but couldn't find one at a price I was willing to pay.

Very nice piece! :thumbsup:
