I do enjoy taking pictures of them toys :)
I tend to prefer doing picture threads/reviews :D

As for accuracy..honestly..not that great..tends to run fast even after breaking it in. At the same time..haven't really worn it for any extended period of time to see if positional or winding isochronism helps..

Probably would need some sort of adjustment or regulation at some point?
How did yours run?

not many watches still look good on macro

but GS standout when you shoot close up and macro !

the superbly polished markers and hands contrasting with the dial.... no other swiss brand does as good as GS so far

this black dial GS jus a classic example !
