Show picture of how you took this picture...

Keep liao. Basically, cam on tripod, shoot remotely, trigger from hp and need timer too, cos both hands are in the picture.

PS:. Have to make sure it's in focus as right hand might move out of position while left hand was pressing the "shutter" and returned to join the right hand in the pic .

good lighting calls for a picture

Anyway I realise my ventus mori's bezel isn't turning as smooth as before. any ideas why or how to remedy it. having a brass bezel and brass case may be the reason...

I was literally hugging the tripod and my face lean on the side of the camera

Another simpler shot

Nice find, never seen this model before, small size diver with quartz movement, surprisingly rare.

rare drop from the boss

i was on the lookout for a High Accuracy Quartz watch. reading up on GS 9F, and chanced upon the previous 8F movement which was discontinued some years back. it's a shame that seiko stopped the 8F production. the current list of quartz is the usual +-15spm..adding up to 180spy. why would they stop producing such movement?

Having owned both Black Bays previously and Sub C, which would you prefer?

Hmm sub-c over black bay for me, black bay is just a little too thick and chunky for my liking. Have become spoilt by rolex relative " thinness" of their sports watch range, i.e previous explorer 1 was thin too. On the wrist, sub-c is more comfortable than black bay thanks to its bracelet and glidelock function. But then at two times the price of a black bay, it has to be better

Might be dirt. Go and use light hand soap and slather ard the bezel and spin it.

I actually prefer the bezel of the Black Bay though. But agree that the Rolex is way more comfy. Just whether it's worth the difference to the buyer that's the question, not whether it's better or not.

Use your toes to press shuttle?

Doesn't make sense to sell 8F and 9F together when their specs are quite comparable. So they gotta kill 8F to sell more 9F?

I just love the Glidelock's micro adjustment!
