Perfect pic
Just thought that how the well the light reflected the word Rolex in my sub's rehault was amazing and deserved a pic.

hmm....not liking the glare on the lower portion of the bezel....looks dark blue. I had to stare at this for a second to realize if it was a sub.

Dont like the glare on the crystal either...

Honestly i think this is a really bad picture.... there is too much light reflection going on.....

Of course you’re welcome to your thoughts. I believe the OP just wanted to share what he thought was a captivating photo of his beloved sub with the rest of the forum.

Enjoy your watch and thanks for sharing OP.

Beautiful pic but I think your Batman Sub is missing the 24 hour hand...

Now that is a beautiful photo, super clear, pretty sure it looks like a Timex on the beach with a crystal clear sea in the background.

Thanks for the awesome vacation photo!!

Thanks for the nice comments folks! For the less positive commenter... My pic won't win a contest but that wasn't the original purpose anyways. I'm still loving it regardless.

Though I have a near “perfect” watch, I have yet to get a “perfect” photo of it.

My inspiration, (aside from actual vintage Rolex advertisements) is Apia’s thread called “My Rolex Gallery”

Not owning a nice camera, I rely on my iPhone for pics, and usually get my best pics “on the fly” compared to the painstaking “staged” pics.

Here’s one of my favorites, taken quickly while pumping gas! (Even managed to capture the “hidden crown” without even trying!

Guy at the next lunch table over from me last week was wearing this watch, I’ve seen a few in the wild and have even tried one on but it never ceases to amaze me how the blue just pops with those polished center links. Have yet to see it on a jubilee in person. Agree, you captured this shot quite perfectly!

That's what I would call the perfect shot. Nicely done!
