Watches

What i was trying to do with these pictures, was to get no reflection from the light. I think i succeeded in some. The problem was the fact i was next to a lamp. Anyhow, it was fun doing and i learnt a few things from it. Thanks

I had the hardest time as well. Finally, I got close and used a flash and cropped it. It appears to have worked.

Nice time piece collections. I was expecting something that is on a case or similar to a catalog. The images look a little dark for me and a long exposure might be needed or some indirect lighting. CPL filter might be able to cut out any glare but you'll need a tripod to show the details. Just a suggestion.

I love the watches but agree too dark. Just taking a stab at this but what about illuminating a white overhead ceiling to get the lighting you need without reflection and if needed flash off the ceiling. Disclaimer: I am completely a newbie but think in my mind that would have worked.
