This photo is endearing, and the title is befitting. Good luck.

This would be an excellent shot, except that the open cover of the watch, the way it is positioned is a real distraction. (8)

This meets the challenge – it’s inanimate and arranged. More of a literary theme than necessary, IMO, but it works - respect for granddad. 6

Interesting. I wish a little of the text were more in focus along with the the watch face.

I find the oof watch case distracting. In a different area of the photo it would be fine, but since it's front and center it's the first place the eye tends to go, and being partially between the watch and the skulls, when the eye tries to travel between elements it gets caught again by that one element. Otherwise I like the shot, the repetition of brown tones between the metallic and organic.
