...was in fact a 100 percent crop of 1548x1048 pixels. In the posting process, the image was downsized by the PuristS server to the "standard" size (I'm not looking at it right now, but if memory serves it's something like 600x800, right?). So not an exact match.
The 100 percent crop as seen in original form on my computer is razor sharp, though -- a tribute, as you say, to both resolving power and pixel count.
Hope that's not confusing (I'm not 100 percent clear myself!).
Best,
Gary

100% Crop?
That is impressive if so! Such is the resolving power combined with high megapixels!

Crystal Clear !
Thanks for the detailed breakdown. Wow! Just Wow! To that sensor! Looks like u need to the the "E" in the Vianney fixed ;) Absolutely love your photos. Keep em coming, Gary!
To be honest ...
... I would save myself the macro photography in this case, and enjoy the watch with the naked eye only. Regards, Marcus
I would agree with you...
...that the proportions of this piece as seen in actual size are fantastic! Hope you won't begrudge me my macro hobby, though :-) Best, Gary
Your picture is perfect ...
... which, however, does ot count for the quality of the Vianney engraving, which, to be frank, is a bit disappointing. Especially, since I recall VH timepieces to be practically perfect even under large magnifications. Regards, Marcus
I've not shown this one in a while...
One problem about these images... you really need to clean your watches carefully before you take your photo! :) ...
A new macro model...

Its the Gronefeld One Hertz
It was good to meet you last week at Basel and have a beer with the Gronefelds, the was the watch I was wearing then after collecting it earlier in the fair. Hope the rest of the trip was successful and you got home safely. Cheers Andrew
I have been wondering what some decent macro work with this watch would look like...
...and now I know! Brilliant shot, Andrew -- glad you are enjoying this one! Best, Gary
My first try...

Great, Ken!
I was startled to see the EOT -- in the exact version that I have in the safe! You have now learned what lots of macro photographers including myself know: that the EOT with the anthracite dial is virtually impossible to photograph without big reflections...
Hi Gary!
That was taken almost 4 years ago, and yes, it is for taking watches that I started to get serious about cameras and lenses and other equipment. I have this, too :-) I actually like this dial color... Have a great week! Ken ...
Wow!
I was thinking of having the dial and hands of my EOT switched to this combo at the last service -- really looks great, IMHO. Thanks! Best, Gary
