People....This Needs LATERAL THINKING not research!!

Only ONE face (Has solid caseback!)

As Puggy just 'Skype'd' me to say he'd been browsing my image hosting site and jumped the gun on the photo 'teases' to come............I'll level the playing field....

Seems you need another tease!!!!! .

Partly due to a boring weekend & still being marooned on 'Tony's Magic Island' when I ordinarily should be in 'The Land of Smiles' I came up with the idea of plagiarizing andreww's current thread..............but spicing it up a little. Heres how it goes........... First to correctly post what this watch is - WINS! Prize will be a brand new (mystery) rep shipped FOC Clues... Its not a rep , its in my personal collection (so its unusual!) Here goes.................

97% of your earache comes from the forums.... you must start upsetting more offline customers!!! mines only 82% .

As he served as 'part of the asian campaign' of WW11 I am intrigued as to your thinking..... just what memories do you feel a homage to Italian Submariners invoke? .

Theyve been around for ages (Asian Auto non chrono)

All Jacob & Co reps are not best quality (of say the better Panerai gendre). That aside the two broad groups you are faced with are: 1) 5 separate quartz movements 2) 4 separate quartz movements and 1 main Asian automatic movement (Dismissing of course the absolute crap ones with one movement and 4 sets of stuck on hands!!) In fairness although the second option would seem a better choice, be warned, they are plagued with problems mostly caused by the excessive crown stem extensions required to reach the automatic movement. An attribute that having a central quartz movement seems to tolerate better! Also the ones with interchangeble screw off bezels do seem to have a slightly better build quality. Finally give all 'diamonds' several coats of top quality clear nail lacquer to not only sparkle them up, but to seal all their edges to prevent snagging on clothing. Dont want your bling creation looking like a smile full of missing teeth

Well Wimbledon is over, This nonsense is over, Now only six more days to wait........... for the World Winkle Spitting Championship more slavish postings to come about this bout of competitive twaddle no doubt

Horses for courses I s'pose - different customer bases If Rolex made golf umbrellas or little sailing hats they would probably sell to theirs to the derision of blinged out rap stars

Ahh the QVC Accurist Limited Edition Unique movement...... Can only be wound by auto masterbation

Waaaaah.... Why Me Lord? Why?

Use whatever damned avatar you fancy - just stop subjecting me to the ultimate abscenity - unwelcome football speak on a watch forum............the horror!

Luckyyy ?

Skin tones, la di dah landscapes and other irrelavancies. For the purpose of photographing watches, features such as the user memory presets and hot swappable flash card get my Minolta vote. As Puggy has shown in his tutorials even moderate cameras can produce more than adequate watch pics. I'm reminded of a quote by the late great Jeff Cooper when discussing pistol calibers (a similarly hot topic amoungst shootists) "a smallbore champion equiped with his favoured pistol is far more effective than a baboon in a medium tank" And yes its all about light...........max d.o.f. , min iso, aperture priority, w.b. , remote shutter release & big heavy tripod too!
