Snap on macro lens for iphone, I didn't know they make them so easy to use.... cost me less than 20sgd.

As good as a proper iphone Shot under the sun. Will add actual photos tomorrow.

I wonder will it double down when you have macro lens on, on TOP of it. Will give it a try.

Here are the photos, it is too dark to dry the double magnifying now though. Will try that tomorrow.

Looks great on that strap. David Boettcher's ?
Edit/ add: Thanks for the lense tip. I have one I bought on line but I'm not sure it's x20- and I haven'f been using it much since upgrading the phone.

I tried:

1) it doesn't work doubly
2) very smart function overall but doesn't exactly replace a magnifying lens as it is kind of similarly using maximum zoom on to a spot based on the highest pixel the camera allows

Still great tip!

Which iPhone do you have? I have a 7 plus and wondered how it would work with the dual cameras.

Edit - also I noticed you mentioned SGD... I'll be out in Singapore in July visiting family (my wife is a Singaporean). Any tips on where to watch hit down there in the lion city? 😀

I never make any purchase here, I think the value of things in singapore is a bit skewed to the high side. You may want to check with @khmt2 and @Gavin

Now the tri-Color (a lot of dirt if you can't take that just skip this post)

Bought a OLLOCLIP MACRO PRO LENSE SET for my iPhone a couple of weeks ago. It has macro lenses with 21X, 14X and 7X magnification. For shooting watches I think the magnifications are to high, here is a shot of my Speedy 145.012-76 with me trying to capture the Omega logo in the crystal with the 7X lense:

I think that a 2X - 4X lense would be a better choice...

I took a few the other day. The macro kit cost £1.49 including postage from e-bay and works on both phones and tablets.

And for an even lower-cost alternative, allow me to suggest the MacLoupe©. You probably already own a loupe [and presumably, sticky tape]

For no additional cost you get a cool vignette effect 😀

That is a good idea, might try that next time.
