I've just started to 'recreate' my watch in POV. It's a Swiss Army Watch
eith Chronograph and some more cool functions.
First thing I've don is model the body and dial. What do you think? I think
the measurements are not very realistic. Tomorrow I'll bring a precision
measurement instrument from work to measure the real sizes...
The only thing I really worry about are those stripes... (marked bij the red
arrows...) Maybe it's because of the glass texture I'm using (the original
Crystal glass from galss.inc.) It's not the JPEG conversion, because they're
also visible in the original BMP. I rendered it with MegaPOV 0.7.

Please, I could use lots of comments!

Thanx,

Bugs74

You should check on the palette of the paint program becuase the arrows need
more red to be actually "red".  Only joking.
What is the crystal object?  Anything like a lathe or sor... or something
else?

Ooops! ;-)

It's just a cylinder, using a crystal texture from the glass.inc file.

Is the crystal reflecting something behind the camera perhaps?  I have found
that the reflection statement in the glass texture to be too much for use
with watch crystals and I typically modify that texture to set reflection to
zero.  Reflections will also come from the interior (dial face) as well,
however I can't tell where you got those stripes.  You can still get the
highlights (without reflection) from lights and the refraction but it lets
the dial come through without the glare.
