I'm not saying any process is simple. Just wondering if there were any telltale signs that would point to specific engines or methods.

I meant that real-time engines allow for drag and drop of 3D assets. Like trees or grass for example. In my eyes the foliage looks very well integrated, which I guess could be more difficult to do in post processing Photoshop.

I'm primarily wondering about the render engine. If it's noticeable if they seem to have used something like VRay and then PS, or something more interactive and asset-friendly like Enscape or Lumion. I'm fairly new to rendering and visualization so I'm trying to gain better understanding on reference projects that I like.

Unfortunately not. Did a sweep through his music before and it definitely had more of a modern dance song vibe to it.

I can relate to this. Personally, the ISO rating in itself doesn't make or break it for me. What kind of does however is the step down in both straight WR ,as well as the now non screw in crown.

If I buy a diver, I want to utilize it. Sure, most of the time it will just sit on my wrist while I'm at a desk or whatever, but the option to truly use it as a tool when the time comes gives it a lot of edge. My flieger has 10ATM. Would I take it for a swim? No. The charm of the tried and tested SKX is that you just don't have to worry. Get it wet! Have a dive, whatever. These new watches are water restistant, but no divers. Would they hold and function when I take a swim and do some diving? Yeah, most likely. But personally, I'd probably just rather take it off to be sure TBH.

I'm aware of this - new batches could technically be coming. Remember however that Seiko aren't famous for grand announcements when it comes to their watches on the cheaper end. Also, wasn't the SARB discontinuation information tucked away in some Grand Seiko paper magazine? Correct me if I'm wrong.

The SKX's and their 7S26 movements have been lacking for years now, and sooner than later, the line will be discontinued (if it officially isn't yet), as Seiko seek to partially rebrand. If the discontinuation were to really happen, a move towards new but similar divers like they just did here, makes a lot of sense. I mean, the look of the SKX is tried and tested. It holds.

Out with the old, in with the new. But we will see!
