Re: Not always easy to tell from photos

: One further note, just in case you're trying to judge this from
: photographs of a watch.

: Although the fluting is fairly pronounced in the metal, it doesn't
: always photograph so clearly. With flash especially, the fluting
: can wash out and look like a smooth-barrelled pusher.

: I've had double-take moments with photos of my own watches
: before (hang on, I could have sworn that watch had the correct
: pushers!) and even felt compelled to check them in the metal
: before, so photos can be deceptive sometimes.

Thanks very much Mark. Also agree about the photo deception. I have done the 'double take' myself.
