I don't get it.

Good pic of a bad watch and bad pic of a good watch. Makes no sense to me.

Before and after pics should be same quality IMHO.

Bad pics yes, sorry I didn't have my TRF ready camera on me to take pics before I shipped off to the client, and I didn't actually take them with the sole intent on posting online. There are plenty of 'studio ready' pics around if you needed, which you probably don't because you don't like Black Rolexes so the convo is moot, yes?

This moderation intervention was about your consistent self promoting behavior.

It is not about the choice to PVD a Rolex at all...or posting pictures of them.

In fact, whilst I wouldn't do it myself I can understand the appeal and when done well the ones I've seen in the flesh look good.

However you have constantly worked to subvert and undermine making this out to be about something it's not. This despite my very clear warnings.

So, take yourself elsewhere.
