mick92627 Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 I had a Breitling SFSO rep delivered to me today. I am shooting some pictures for a series to be posted here later this weekend. But I couldn't resist posting this preview and it's a whopper. I used a macro lens and merged several extreme close-ups of the watch-face into one shot and posted it full sized. It's 4368 pixels wide by 4254 pixels high. On a normal 72 dpi monitor that will be an image roughly five feet high by five feet wide! It's a 10 megabyte .jpeg, so it takes several seconds to load even on a high-speed connection, but once it's in you can scroll around to see the face up close and personal, warts and all.

Guru1 Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 good picture, you really can see that the chinese don't care about dust and quality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreww Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Yeah, thats why I've stopped examining my watches with a loupe! Stuff that you would never see suddenly becomes your focal point. Look at how the hands have marked the dial, the piece of lint stuck to the hand stack, and the fiber under the pearl crystal. These reps are usually best viewed with the naked eye. At arms length I'm sure this one looks beautiful as well, congrats and wear it well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even up close with a magnifying glass it looks great. I wish I had access to a gen in this model. I would love to see what it looks like at this magnification.

Corgi Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 What an eye-opener. This is what they all look like- the lume application is especially poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
