My watch photography journey

[markyboy.1967]

Im just starting out photographing watches as a hobby and to give me an interest and learn from. If anyone who photographs watches to a high standard can give me hints and tips then it would help. At the moment im starting using only 1 light source to help me master that first and then i can add more light sources after that. Below are my watches as i have only been collecting for 7 or 8 months and buy watches that i like rather than to follow the crowd as they say. Anyway here goes-

My Casio G Shock, the theme sort of fitted.lol

My trusty Omega Diver 300M-i love the dial as it changes so much in differing light-

My Zenith Defy El Primero 21-
Another interesting watch that some will love and some will hate but there is no denying the engineering behind it-

Thanks, the only thing that really stood out was that the orange handle of the screwdriver pulled the eye away from the watch a bit, i ended up taking it out in other images.

Very nice photos. What sort of lighting do you use?

cheers

I have various lights but this was with a Godox light with a small soft box. I may be making it harder with only 1 light and not stacking images but i want to start to understand the basics first.
