Fascinating. The problem is the end result looks... photoshopped, just like everything else we see in ads these days.

OMG, Tom! Brother, you sure picked a picture perfect moment for the natural lighting to be just right! Wow, the blue in the dial glows looks like it would just gleam electric blue for miles, and the deep rich brown shade of the bezel stands out like sweet chocolate. LOVE this pic! Damn, you are making me consider seeing my AD for this bad boy, now!

Maybe Im in the minority but I always preferred "real life" pics to the photoshopped ones

Not just talking from a shopping point of view but I actually think they look better

Thanks appreciate that! Was just sitting at the drivers meeting and looked down and said damn that watch looks good and just snapped the pic

It was early in the morning and sun had just come up so light from the side

Gotta admit, every time I look down at this watch in every different setting it looks great, without photoshop
