Listing studio · Pre-owned watches

From the camera to the listing, in one pass.

Six straight-from-camera frames graded to match your edited house look, then a full image set sized for Facebook Marketplace, eBay and social feeds. Every watch pixel is your own photograph. Higgsfield only cut the watch out and painted the empty velvet behind it.

01 · Raw to edited

The house look, applied to the raw shoot.

Drag across each frame. The velvet is colour-matched to your edited RM 67-01 set (deeper emerald, darker valleys, the same corner fall-off); the watch only gets the shared tone and vignette, so metal, dial and strap stay true. Frames 2, 3 and 5 carried a case number on the caseback ring: it is pixel-destroyed before anything else touched the file, and shows as a soft patch.

02 · Marketplace set

Ready to upload, sized per channel.

The cut-out is placed on a generated background with a soft contact shadow, and the strap runs off the edge of the frame so no cut ends show. Facebook publishes no fixed Marketplace spec, so the square leads; eBay asks for at least 500 px on the long side and recommends 1600 px, and every square here is 2048 px.

03 · The velvet prompt, reviewed

Keep the prompt. Change what it is used for.

We ran Matt's prompt as written, a tuned variant, and two full AI re-renders of the watch, then compared each against the original photograph.

Photorealistic macro product-photography background of luxurious dark teal-green velvet fabric, draped in large, soft, flowing diagonal folds. Dense plush short-pile velour texture with individually visible fine fibers in the in-focus areas, matte-soft nap with a subtle, non-glossy sheen. Rich tonal range: muted emerald-teal highlights (#2a5c50) on fold peaks, deep forest teal midtones (#19483e), dark blue-green valleys (#062f29), falling off to near-black shadows (#030909) at the edges. Lit by a single soft directional studio light from above … the center of the frame is reserved as a softly lit resting area for a product.Matt's background prompt

Verdict: a strong background prompt.

  1. As a background, it beat our rewrite. It gave an even, rich velvet. Our tuned version added a bright hot spot at the top that fights the watch.
  2. The hex codes steer, they do not bind. Image models read them as mood, so the result lands close to the palette without matching it exactly. Fine for a backdrop.
  3. Add one line: "Empty scene, no product, no objects, no text." It stops the model inventing a prop in the resting area.
  4. Never ask a model to redraw the watch. Composite the real photo on top. One of our two re-renders moved the crown and re-ordered the numerals, which is a misdescribed item on a resale listing.
04 · RM 67-01, edited shoot

The same treatment on the finished set.

Your edited Richard Mille RM 67-01 Automatic Extra Flat in grade 5 titanium (38.7 × 47.5 mm, 7.75 mm thick, per published dealer listings), cut out and placed on the same grounds. The caseback carries a redacted case number.

05 · How it was made

Repeatable for every watch.

The steps run as scripts, so the next watch is the same steps on a new folder.

1 · Redact first

Case and serial numbers are found and destroyed in the pixels (downscale, blur) before any file leaves the machine. No model ever sees them.

2 · Grade to the house look

Velvet colour is matched to the edited reference set; the watch gets only the shared tone curve and vignette.

3 · Cut, place, export

Higgsfield cuts the watch out; holes in the see-through crystal are filled back from the photo; the cut-out is placed on each ground and exported per channel.
