vric Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Here is some picture of my new baby that I got from a member here. It's just like ByTor one, but without the Automatic writing on the dial. (since the watch is Manual Seagull ST19, it's a real bonus..) btw I need an extra link for this one.. if you have one that collect dust, I would appreciate. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Congrats vric, what a beautiful watch. This is one of the reps that never lost its appeal to me. It's stealthy and beautiful... very "low end", but because of the thick blue broad arrow hands it's not "pale" like some other white dial watches. Finding it without "automatic" was really nice surprise. A true collector's item in the rep world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris5264 Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Great pictures,,,I had a difficult time taking decent pictures of that dial, yours are much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Here's another dial shot. Not perfect since the hands are in a bit bad position. But the white dial is very clean and beautiful. Notice the different text (automatic) on my dial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vric Posted January 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 (edited) By-Tor: Is your watch having "circular" subdials ? They look "flat" to me. Look my closeup picture to know what I mean. (circular texture) chris5264: My camera is a Canon S3 IS with Hoya Macro lens set and a good tripod. (the Hoya lens do most of the job) Picture are 6Mpix 1:1, no cropping done ! And I can seriously do a 6Mpixel picture of one subdial if I want with the lens set (without, I would be happy to get the dial on frame ) Sadly, when I have time to take picture, the light is always bad. Those picture are 15 second opening ! The chrono minute hand did the problem you told me about only once.. I have used it few time since and it's not doing it anymore.. I found that pressing "progressively" the button instead of just pressing it "harder" avoid the jumping hand problem. Being gentle her Very happy with your watch.. euhhh my watch Thanks again mate.

(circular texture) No, they're similar as yours. It's the excessive lighting, contrast setting and the use of a white reflector card in the photo that just makes them look flat.

vric Posted January 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 This is what I was thinking.. Thanks So the only difference is the marking. Anyway I like it.. I have a Brown Buffalo strap coming for it (while waiting to get an extra link) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Anyway I like it.. I have a Brown Buffalo strap coming for it (while waiting to get an extra link) I think Omegas look better on leather. My Moonwatch has a black leather strap and it makes it look significantly better. Edit: The speedmasters look better, that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
