Awesome picture. Awesome watch. I'm wearing mine now. It's my weekend watch.

I see you have a new GMT-Master II, how do you like it? From the pictures I've seen and what I've read, I love it! The look and the functionality, it looks much better than the old GMT and possibly better than the Sub now. But I'm not sure about the maxi dial... the huge markers (as well as the larger font on the bezel), to me, make the dial look smaller. Lovely watch though, I want one so bad Do you prefer one over the other?

I have the SS Date Sub and the TT GMTII c. I love the GMT. It is a little heavy compared to the Sub but it looks so classy and keeps such amazingly accurate time. I love the ceramic bezel as well. It is advertised as indestructible. In my opinion the bezel needs to take some abuse as I am always hitting in to something accidentally. (Must be my old age ). I love the Sub but prefer the GMT. I don't think you can go wrong with either but why have one when you can have both .

WOW. That one is incredible as well. That Luminova really shows off the dial and the reflections are superb. With pictures that fine you should get together with Jocke (a fabulous photographer who posts here).

Nice work.

That is another great shot, very impressive.

I just set it as my desktop wallpaper.

Do you have any other Rolex's you can take pictures of, or just more of your Sub that we can all use for Wallpaper!!! :-)

I got a Nikon D80 with a Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8, and I also have an Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 as well as a Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 and an SB-600 flash :)

timackerman, I did nothing special for the lighting really. The shot of the watch on my wrist was taken in daylight, and the other shot was taken under very very dim light in my room with a 9 second exposure.

I'd be more than happy to share more pictures of my Sub whenever I take them. I might even try some macro shots, but unfortunately it's my only watch so I have no other Rolexes to take pictures of (wanna send me some watches? )
