The Watch Galley Store Website Now With 360 Degree Watch Views

by Ariel Adams (RSS feed) Sep 27th 2009 at 12:01PM

Choosing your new watch online just got easier. The days of messing with snobby retailers and hard sells are no longer a requirement of indulging in your beloved passion for watches. The Watch Gallery website has been steadily using its special camera to take 360 degree photo shoots of their watches. I checked out their handiwork on some Tag Heuer watches and was pleased with the results. No more mere marketing shots and the wrong angles. Now you get views of the actual watch from front to back, and side to side. This is a big help to give you a good idea of what you've never see looks like in reality. Marketing images are often touched up quite a bit, and it is not always possible to understand how light actually makes the watches we love look. Not all of their watches have this special view, but they are increasing the number of high quality 360 degree images they offer. Hopefully they will allow you to zoom in as well. You can see other Tag Heuer watches photographed like this here. Other brands get this photo treatment as well.

The watch gallery website is indeed very impressive...their "image viewer" function is top-notch...as it should be, I guess (if you're spending $10k on a watch).

Very beautiful website though...thanks Luxist for sharing! :)
