It is an Oyster Perpetual (OP) 116000. I bought the watch on oyster bracelet and factory hands and did the upgrade to the Mercedes hands (from a Sub 116610 / green lume) and sourced a super jubilee 63200 bracelet

Clearly some people with much better shots, but I'll throw my attempt into the mix anyway!

Sorry it’s a bit large but I can’t seem to edit the image size on imgur on my cell phone.
Photo taken using iPhone 6S plus.

I’ll play. Decent lighting conditions, an iPhone, $10 macro lense, and my 116610.

I noticed that LECs are not equal on every watch. Some has perfect lines others are not. Interesting how this crown is put on the sapphire. It seems that it's not lasered.

2012 if I’m not wrong. I need a loupe to see mine, even then have to catch the light just right.

This is WOW! Dramatic lighting too.

If you don't mind what kind of macro lens did you used with your iPhone?
