Very cool!

And with a change letter you can try this!

Thanks Pilou! That's actually a neat idea for a model.

You're kidding. Modeled in SU! Wow! Glorious renders.

Thanks!

And yes, it's Sketchup all the way. Here's the raw model in Sketchup:

Great modeling , would love to see it in a studio setting with reflections.

Thanks!

Is this close to what you had in mind:

Hello xayzer, personally I prefer the dark background. I was meaning a studio set-up using an HDRi for light and shadows. It would make a great render this model!

Could you "lend" me the watch so I can model her
John

Lovely work!

cotty

I wonder when Solo will find this model

He's animating it as we speak!

xayzer that's brilliant thank you, with a great model like this you should expect some nice renders.
Wonder if Pete would make this a "render this" challenge.

Sure thing, John, the model is attached. Would love to see what someone else would do with it. Be gentle

That came out awesome, thanks for sharing ely862me! What rendering software did you use?

BTW, I noticed there was a small flaw with the texturing in the file I originally provided (Near the small E and X letters around the inner bevel). I've updated my post with the fixed model.

I used an indoor hdri environment .
Shouldn't there be a glass too ?

Yeah, I've come to the conclusion that a glass doesn't add anything to the render of a wristwatch in most cases and only gets in the way, so I didn't model it.

Nice render Elisei, looks great with the Gold.
Here's my shot...

Near your render is nothing !! I could have paid some more attention to it , the roman letters are very bad.
I see you added the glass, nice touch ! Great looking render !
