Watches hero Reveal video
The Hero Reveal type turns a steel watch into a cinematic reveal with a traveling light — shadows open and a band of light sweeps across the product as the camera eases in. For watches that means a slow turn under a single hard light on concrete, in a clip five to eight seconds long, with the dial, hands, bezel markings and strap held in every frame.
Every watch in the range can go through the same Hero Reveal settings, so the eBay collection page and the PDP galleries look like one shoot. Swap Hero Reveal for another type with one click to split-test watches and straps.
