They look good and sharp but I don't think that the lighting is bright enough to blow out the background to a pure white. Looks like you are using white bristol borad and you can see they grayish grain in it.

Ok thanks, Ill try using brighter lights. Wont I get even brighter reflections tho? They're already pretty bad.
Its actually thin paper that we use at work to mask off cars before they're painted. Its almost like tracing paper but I think Im gonna look for some tag-board that way I can do different colors too.

Nice watch, I have the venture and they are the best watches you'll ever wear!

Same here. Actually, I got mine about 6 months ago but I still love it. :cool:

I would definitely look for a different backdrop that will give you a stark white background.

if you use thicker paper for the backdrop that will help. the thin paper is why the background is not going to pure white. nice shots and great title.

I've got like 5 Nixon watches, I wanted the Player but got the Banks instead for christmas. Noone makes a better watch. Nice shots too but I have to agree with everyone about the backdrop.

maybe if you stop the aperture down a bit?
enough to keep the subject in focus, but enough to throw the bg out a little more?
