For watch dealers and watch brands

Watch photo editing

Polished steel, gold and crystal show everything the camera can see. We take out the cushion, the stand, the light tent and the reflections, keep the ones that make metal look like metal, and put cases and straps together from separate shots.

One photograph back within 24 hours, free. No card, nothing to join.

  • $3.99 composite

One case, every strap

Photograph the case and each strap on its own, once. We put them together, so every combination you sell has its own picture without a shoot for each.

What we do

Cushions, stands and boxes out

A watch photographed on its display cushion comes back on its own, cut out on white.

Steel, gold and crystal

Brushed and polished surfaces evened, dust and fingerprints cleaned off the case and the glass, the reflections that show the shape kept.

Dials, straps and parts

A case and a strap shot separately, put together; the same case shown on each strap you sell, from one shoot.

Sized for where you list

A neutral ground for marketplaces that ask for one, white or a shadow for your own site, up to eight sizes at no extra cost.

Questions

Can you put a case and a strap together from separate photographs?

Yes. Send the case and each strap as photographed and say which go together; each combination is a composite, at $3.99 a photograph.

Do you remove the display cushion?

Yes. The cushion is taken out and the watch cut out on its own, as a composite at $3.99.

Will the brand on the dial be changed?

No. Nothing on the watch itself is altered beyond cleaning: the dial, the hands and the case stay exactly as photographed.
