Some product style shots I took yesterday.

For a lighting setup I had 2 sunpak 383s - I used black construction paper with a piece of glass from a picture frame on top of it for the background and floor. Above the watch I had a sheet of paper to diffuse the light from the first flash, and behind to the watch's right I had the other sunpak snooted with a CTB gel on it.

Hey, I like #2. Kind of like a sunrise onto the face of the watch.

Not done too much of this but I believe shots that enhance the face of the watch are what people like to see; at least those are the ones that stand out to me.

Yeah I agree, unfortunately I need to replace the crystal on both of these as they are fairly scratched up so I was trying to do what I could to properly light it without giving away to many flaws in the glass.
