Well, attached is a picture of my new to me lithium black bezel.  Someone took pity on me and explained where the macro setting was on the camera.  Now I've just got to learn how to use light and shade, and I'll be off.  Right now, I am somewhere between "a little knowledge is a dangerous thing," and "don't let this happen to you."  On a semi-related note, what would I need to convert the quartz lithium to an automatic besides a 2824 movement?  I recall needing a movement holder.  Also, what about the winding stem?  Does that need to be custom for the watch with the larger diameter?  It's either that or see about having the quartz movement aligned to the seconds markers which seems like a difficult exercise and not worth the expense.  Thanks as always....

Not bad at all for your first attempt. Some of my first were well unreconizable. You could not tell it the pic was of a watch, tree or person. LOL :D

Practice is all it takes. I still have a long way to go but at least now one can tell what my pics are of. :)

Great Orsa there to BTW. ;)

Pretty nice for a first timer :)

I can't help you with your question regarding the movement.. but I can give you some quick tips regarding your photograpy. To prevent glare from occuring its best to use a filter between the watch and the direct light source, a sheet of white paper would do the trick. If you have problems keeping your camera steady, it's advisable to buy a small tripod. And last but not least, sunlight is always better for photograpy than artificial light.

Here's a quick macro of my Sea Angler:

Stefan
