You're right, Roger. That is professional quality work.

Maybe what we need on this forum is a class in photgraphing watches. We have a few good shooters here who could give the rest of us some pointers, I'm sure.

I am sure that Micah won't mind giving us some pointers on here.

Maybe I will ask him for some pointers once I get my Exp1, I promised to let him autograph my hologram before I chuck it in the trash LOL

Thanks for the compliments, guys. Would it bother you if I told you that I'm actually a bit disappointed with this pic, but didn't have the patience to re-take it?

My lightbox setup isn't giving the results I want, I keep fiddling with it but nothing seems to work. It's quite frustrating.

That Explorer is such a superbly symmetrical watch with such perfect aesthetics, why the hell don't they make it in 40 mm size??

Sorry, Micah, really don't mean to hurt your feelings, but 36 mm is just NOT a universal size. However, I would accept 38 mm to be a universal size....one for any and every wrist, but there are quite a few out there who will find 36 mm just not big enough for their wrist. Sorry, but I happen to be one of them.

But, in all fairness, the Explorer is the most aesthetically symmetrical watch I've come across. If you drew an imaginary line from 12 to 6 vertically down the line, the resultant two halves would form perfect mirror images. WOW! And that is something I like....very much!

Cheers - JJ
