126619LB Submariner

Was just messing around on my lunch break and took this snap with my iPhone. I liked the way it turned out with the sun flare on the crown. I thought I'd share.

Nice shotzky Russ.

I find the interior of a car is one of the best places to photograph watches, ( I’m not a photog, just a smart phone is all I have).

Something to do with the perfect light conditions

I agree. Photography is a hobby of mine, but all of these are taken with iphone RAW images then edited on my phone. I haven't busted out my camera and taken any "real" shots of the Sub yet.

I like the lighting in the car plus the comfort factor of not being out in the open. I wouldn't just be out in the general public taking wrist shots. I'd be super embarrassed. Hence why most of not all of my wrist shots are in the car. Plus it adds some visual interest to the background as a bonus.

I wouldn't know how to edit photos and post here.

I just use my old Samsung S9. This is my favorite car shot (I think ).

I am thinking about getting a WG sub and saw a display only at an AD the other day. The blue looked very bright, but when I have seen the smurf out in public the blue looked more Royal - is that just my imagination, the light that day, or are they different? Thanks

Amazing pictures and amazing watch. I really wish they would make this bezel in SS. The blue is perfect.

Beautiful watch. On the lookout for one. Not really any in the classifieds at the moment.

Does anyone have a 126619 and a Batman?

Do they complement each other? How close is the blue when they are compared?
