Not quite as the level of Dilemma's but figured I would show my early efforts with the new camera. And since JJ loves the YM, I figured nobody would complain. lol

GREAT shots, this is why this site is so fun, watches and photography... where else do you get two of your favorite hobbies.

And tomorrow, I will add a thread about Baseball and we will have three of my favorites.

It's funny, all blown up and magnified, I am seeing the 8 years of wear and tear on my bezel on the Sub (on some of the pics that I have been playing with). The extra againg makes me love it more!

Dilemma, you have the "flat four" on your bezel, how old is it?
Did they make that bezel longer for the non-date model?

Just wondering. Mine is from 2001 - My brother got his in 2006 and has the "pointy four".

It's so much fun learning all the diffent details of these watches.

Have fun all, I am off to watch the NCAA games... be back online later.

Look at the "40" on your bezel then look at the "40" on mborner's pictures.
See how one has a point and the other is flat inside?

OK, it's not a Rolex, it's my TAG. Still a macro shot however. (Is that OK here?)
