Hey Eric, I still use it sometimes but I have a old macro lens to play with. The problem with the attachment is that it tends to distort the watch a little bit and I would have to get the f-stop all the way up.

that pepsi is just awesome kyle...great photos...

rfknauss · 2 June 2010, 08:25 AM

Kyle, did you know you can use the GMT as a compass? It might come in handy with your hikes...

nauticajoe · 2 June 2010, 10:43 AM

Nice shots Kyle!

sakuraba · 2 June 2010, 10:48 AM

Nice pics, Kyle!

But it's only truly broken in when you get to change time zones.

yeah i get what you are saying Kyle. i have felt the same too, thats why i dont use my attachment anymore (i think it'd come in handy in a few years time for reading books

)

looking at either a fast prime lens with extension tubes or a didicated macro lens - too many choices out there

WatchSmith · 2 June 2010, 08:56 PM

Great watch Kyle! My first Rolex love was the GMT and 40 years later it still is. Congrats!

sam. · 2 June 2010, 09:04 PM

Honestly I don't think it looks that big, I've worn bigger before. I think it looks perfect.
