watches-close up or real time

[Retired Bob]

Why do all watches look good on close up pictures, but in real time, on your wrist they look small and nothing but a watch and unimpressive?

Can't say I agree.

I think my watches look fantastic on my wrist.

lol. What? Maybe you just haven’t been trying the right watches?

I think that the opposite is true. Photos often don’t due a watch justice.

Not sure I share this experience - quite like how mine looks on and off the wrist.

To my wife, only part of me is small and unimpressive.

Judging by your avatar, could it be you need to visit your optometrist.

Not trying to be rude.......just asking.

I think maybe you need to have your eyes checked.

It is my experience that most watches look better on the wrist than in macro photography.
