lanikai Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Thought you may want to see what the UN MC looks like in full on sunlight.. does the dial "Sing" ..?? Practically direct afternoon sunlight .. the dial looks matte in the shade but in direct light.. it takes on a different look ..anyone that handled the genuine care to comment ? slightly different angle I found natures own "light box" .. my mango tree is filtering the sunlight .. into soft light. Thanks for viewing Lani ~ edit add: sorry I posted this in the wrong section... if it needs to be moved .. please do so ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fotoman Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I have handled the gen but only in store light. I will say this the color pop on this thing is hypnotic. maybe the blue Ar tint ads to the color variTion? but this is def on my fav piece list rightnow. there are not manypieces it's so tuff to do justice to in photos in fact I find it's usually the opposite. I can make a piece look more desirable in photos than life like magazine photos anyway this one is better in person!! sometimes you see the rep flavor of the month and next month you start to see alot or second hand offers this one is a keeper:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corgi Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 I look outside and I see mountains of snow, Lanikai... let's trade weather. Exquisite photos as usual, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanikai Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 I look outside and I see mountains of snow, Lanikai... let's trade weather. Exquisite photos as usual, by the way. opposites attract is the law of nature,.. I miss the snow (visually) .. I wish the temputure in Hawaii could stay like it is now, with a nice north wind.. feels like air conditioning outside.,.. perfect .. at least here we don't spend a lot on sesonal clothing .. the closest I get to snow here is eating "shave ice" with ice cream on the bottom and fresh fruit on top.. .. and thank you ..

omni Posted January 11, 2009 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 Just a gorgeous watch Lani and phoband, I've reviewed both your photo reviews. Congrats and wear them well. I also miss the snow but do not miss living in the ski resorts any longer, too cold for these old bones, that's why I'm here! Lani, remember, we have very early snow in the season on Mauna Kea this year, it has been cooler earlier.
