I broke my watch a couple months ago so I went out today and bought a new one. I like it so far. I wanted to take some pics though, tell me what you think of them. First time I've tried to shoot a watch.... It was surprisingly difficult because its dark in here so I had to rig something to diffuse the light, then I don't have anything to hold the camera on up close, and no shutter release so I was battling bad lighting, reflection off the crystal (wow thats a pain) and myself shaking. Anyway tell me what you think (of the watch or pictures...either way).

The last one especially had too much glare off the chrome at the top, but I got bored :D

Really nice bleeb, I'd be skipping a few months of food for that one I have a feeling :D

Here's a bad picture but it kinda shows its less blingtastic, or at least gold free http://cyber-byte.com/nogold.jpg (okay so its not just a bad picture but the arm hair looks scary)

I like Skagens. I need a new band for mine. I called them up the other day. Apparently the only lady that could have taken care of my call wasn't there. Wonder how big that company is....

Here's mine.

I just got a Citizen Eco-Drive watch for my 17th birthday. The face looks almost identical but the band must be different. The version I recieved cost $200 *shrug* (Sorry no pic).

looks like a good watch... but what would really make the look complete is a few gold teeth, haha jk.

I have a silver Skagen myself. It's a 32LSXM, and sorta looks like this. Just Imagine that watch with a dark gray/blackish face and thats what it looks like. Ive gotten several compliments on it since I got it about 1.5 years ago

Looks like those watches I always see on Shop NBC however I hope that watch wasn't from there because the watches they sell are always over $1000. Nice pictures too, I always have a hellava time with glare when takng a picture of anything shiny.
