anton Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 I was laughing at myself when I found myself constantly doing this: And as a result: Okay, maybe the last one was from constantly wearing a watch in the bright sun. In case if you can't see the contrast, it's a light strip where I wear my watch over the rest of my tan wrist. I hope I'm not alone in this...any victims as well?

mezzanine Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 You bastards that live in tropical climates. You better not be complaining about this phenomenon. Or else you're coming to Canada, where the area under your watch is actually darker than the rest of your arm. Yes, reverse tanning. That's what we do here.

No, I think Anton was using his UV light whatchamacallit-thingie to illustrate a WIS' lume obsession. As for me, I actually have to use the settings of my camera to give myself a "nice tan". I've shown this before, but though my wrist is a shade lighter under my watch, it's not THAT different. And I live under a searing overhead sun. Stupid Scots genes. P.S.: Anton, my UV LED torch is on its way. I'll let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strap grooves on your wrist? Another phenomenon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoria Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 And what is that?!?!?! Strap grooves on your wrist? Another phenomenon! Oh yes, we who love watches have a lot of hobbyist hazards. Weird tan lines and strap grooves is just the tip of the iceberg... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
