I hold you in high regard JJ but please, please, please don't call that 16610 a 'Subby'. It sounds girly. A girly subby. Don't do that.

No JJ, 16610 or Sub Date will suffice. Capisce, Jay-Jay?

1. Yes, I do keep my watches in great shape. I also make it a point to clean them thoroughly before a photo shoot or else the "macro" mode tends to pick up every minute speck of dirt or lint. 2. The cameras are no great shakes. Some of those pics have been taken with a simple NIKON Coolpix 4300 4 mp camera and some with a Panasonic Lumix 5 mp camera. You just need to get the natural lighting in, have a rock steady base in "macro" mode and presto!! BTW, I never use the flash!! Cheers - JJ
