    PRS3LE Picture thread

    Thought it might be a good idea for everyone to put their pictures of their PRS3LEs in one,easy to browse thread rather than have them dotted around.
    Here we go with my yellow #3 for starters...

    It was the yellow one that made it all click for me. I don't generally like plongeurs, but for some reason the yellow one just looks good to me. Got a chance to have a look at one today and was impressed, really looking forward for my turn in the shipping order to come up now!

    Hi everyone. I've just received my PRS-3 which is also my first "proper" watch. Not a bad start to the collection :D

    I just did a couple of quick shots with my phone.

    Pretty terrible picture, I'm afraid, the yellow is quite washed out, but here is Yellow 16:

    I bought this Toshi to go on my new Tag but the lug space is pretty narrow, pretty much like the PRS17, and I just couldnt get the spring bar pin to lock into position :evil: .
    Never mind, I have my lovely PRS3 #3 for it to go on, Looks pretty good if I do say so myself :lol:

    Hi Gee-Whizz.
    Nice combo. The brown strap goes really well with the Orange face and gives the a watch a completely different look.

    Regards

    Hi,
    Well thankyou.
    I would recommend anybody to spend the money and get a Toshi strap, Man this is one thick strap which is probably gonna last a life time and only get better with age.
    This Toshi is about 5mm thick. :lol:

    Hey Foggy

    Is it the lighting or is that a black bezel on your blue PRS 3?

    May be so, but I think it looks pretty good & I'm thinking it would be good to have a black bezel on mine.

    Re: PRS3LE Picture thread

    Here's a couple of shots with some of it's rivals. It's bigger than the SAR, but it actually works better on my wrist since it has a much lower profile.





    And one on it's own. I only wish the focus would have been a bit better placed so that the Precista loga would have been sharp. That's the problem with my photographic skills (or lack there of) - I know when something is good or not, but I'm to lazy/bad now a days to get it right. It was easier back in the days where more things where manually controlled. With todays fully automatic cameras you have a fair chance of getting a reasonably good image, but to get a REALLY good one more manual control is needed.

    Re: PRS3LE Picture thread

    Nice shots!!

    I like to see the comparison photos. Your photo illustrates the tight tolerances on the SAR and PRS-3 end links!!

    It is interesting that the PRS-3 is actually less expensive than the sar.

    I love the Marathon SAR design but have been burnt by bad QC on the last three I had. The last one I had the crystal gasket turned into a gel and spilled onto the dial. After that I will not buy another. Too bad too because I really like the design and bezel!!

    Black 5 on Di-Modell Chronissimo Waterproof strap.

    I'm basically a bracelet man myself, and the PRS3 bracelet is excellent (although I wish it was signed), but this strap suits the 3 so well, I am absolutely loving it.
    Pics taken under a reading lamp, sorry but I had to share my happiness with this combination...





    Cheers,
    Steve

    Steve, that is a simply stunning combination! I need one of those straps now!

    Great shots ZIM,and that rubber is a very good match,bet it would look good on old blue#23 as well.
    I can`t seem to get the bracelet off though,I need to get a smaller tool as my watchmaker freebie just won`t fit in to the slots.

    Thanks Marius.

    I must admit I went on line to view a demonstration on how to change a bracelet. Try using a small jewellers screwdriver, if you cannot find a smaller tool, it worked for me.

    Well, Blue #23 has already appeared in this thread but I'm the proud new owner - it's my second Precista and I have to say that both my Precistas put every other watch I've ever owned into the shade. So here's some shots:








    I know it's a bit gratuitous, all these pics but it's Christmas for me :bigsmurf:
