I like it, id prefer less depth of field so the word 'automatic' is still in focus, but I love the feel, great shot. Also, the watch looks a bit dirty, give it a clean and polish.

looks ok but i would have preferred the whole watch face to be in focus.
just me 2cents

The choice of focus...DOF seems wrong to me.

I would rather see the words (automatic and swiss made) in focus rather than the hairs.

Thanks for your comments. Seems like the focusing and DOF is quite subjective over here. My intention was to keep the tag heuer logo sharpest. Its good to know that this isnt a preferred choice.

Er set your watch to 10:10 leh, maybe date set 1 day faster.
Maybe look better that way. BTW nice watch.
