Which one looks best?

I know most of these look very similar, but I need help choosing the best one out of these nine. Not my watch btw.

Two because the face of the watch in pic one is slightly out of focus and because it places more emphasis on the watch, which is what I assume you meant to do. The rest where the watch is smaller had DOF issues that distract my eye from the subject matter, specifically the foreground lines being out of focus just a bit too much. Just my opinion though

I went with the first one because it doesn't have the reflections over the date window.

Kind of a split between 1 & 6. I mainly like 1 because the watch face/dial is at a slight angle to the plane of view and less glare (as others already noted). Both have nice saturation of the dial. 1 has a bit much of a blue hue overall, though. 6 has a little better exposure, IMO, and I like that the whites are crisper. There is a tad yellow hue, though.

Nice shots overall, though. MUCH better than my past attempts at something similar.

Also, I prefer your previous avatar.

To my untrained eye the lighting on the face looks best in #3...on others the 2 and 4 are too dark

Fixed that for you.

And, if I remember correctly... I think you're right, she's someone random that Bill is infatuated with (for good reason).
