I briefly considered bidding on that one. I wonder if the bezel rotates and if so, what does that mean?

Man, I really missed out.

Haha. Maybe a few purely-decorative jewels were added. With a 44.5mm case and that movement, you can add a lot of things!

Coincidentally, Rolex has a 31-jewel movement. Maybe I should open my Nautilo and see what's in there! :D

Not the worst Photoshop mistake I have seen, but still a bit amusing. I thought photographing against a pale background would have been easy enough for product shots but I am not a professional photographer so what do I know!?

"Ralph, where's that product shot?"
"Working on it..."
