Wah your cam very good leh. How close you can get to your watch depends on the minimum focusing distance of your lens. With your cam's megapixels, can do a lot of cropping right?

Most of the time, I use an Olympus EM10 with a 25mm lens; the minimum focusing distance is 25cm. The other setup is D700 with a 100mm macro lens.

Talking about lume, I know Seiko divers lume is very good.

How about Orient, is it also good on the Ray/Mako?

Orient lume is ok.

Nice. But bro do check if your bezel is loose. Mine is. Try to tap around the bezel to see if it makes clicking sounds.

What photo treatment you applied to give it an aged look?

Ya, out of production model, I think nicer than the current series

dlc is a coating.
pvd is a process.

can sic where you buy the strap? what material is it?

But I thought both DLC and PVD are coating processes but uses different material?

PVD or Physical Vapor Deposition, is a process which vaporizes a number of metals, and then binds it on a surface, in layers, in a heated vaccuum.

While:
DLC or Diamond Like Carbon, is a different way to use the PVD process. The main difference being that instead of spraying on *a group of metals, DLC uses a form of carbon. Once the carbon is blasted onto the surface, it is cooled down extremely quickly, somewhat similar to how synthetic diamonds are made.

Or have I been reading the wrong things???
=(

Question to fellow oris sixtyfive owners. How long is ur power reserve? Ive read that it is abt 38hrs. But mine don last for 24hrs. Do i hv to wind it? Or i hv to wear it for a certain number of hrs straight to get the max power reserve.

er adjusted the color temperature to cooler colors, gave it a slight tint, decrease the shadows, increase the highlights by a bit..

or if you are using lightroom, i can share the preset with you
