The lighting in shots 1,2 & 5 really show off the watch to its best advantage and are magazine quality in my humble opinion..

Beautiful watch, beautiful photo's, I'm sure you will enjoy every minute of wearing it and thanks for sharing...

This is fantastic photography Neil! You've really managed to capture the subtle beauty of this piece.

The polished and sandblasted surfaces really do play off of each other well! Then of course there's that dial

Out of all modern sport Rolexes, this one has the nicest lugs IMO.
It also has a fantastic curved case that makes the watch just sit perfectly on the wrist!

What a stunner!

I personally like this watch over the new daytona C's from a purely aesthetics point of view.
Like a submariner / daytona hybrid.
