Too shallow DOF in my opinion. In a jewelry ad, I would expect to see the maximum amount of detail. Good composition and interesting lighting.

Can't see too many detail. Framed closer would have been better.

Nice watch. Good lighting. Would have been nice to photograph this watch at an angle to show the curve.

Good composition and overall lighting. Rotation of the ring makes the picture moer interesting I think. Too shallow DOF however, especially on the front of the ring; would have be nice to see all diamonds in sharp focus. From what I can tell, there seems to have a strong reflection of something white in the main stone. Text is subtle, well done.

Unsual placement of the watch resting on the crown. Good lighting with no shadow and almost no reflection.

Not enough lit; hard to see what it is (earrings?) and details. Good composition, placing the earrings the way you did is more dynamic. I suspect you placed the earrings on a glass or mirror, which creates a double reflection that is not attractive.

Love the composition. Very impresive use of shallow DOF. However, some part of the jewel are not in focus, especially the "V"; it's a bit distractive, especially since this part is dead center.

Good composition and good use of shalow DOF. Ring is well lit with no blown highlight. Pleasing color balance. However, the shadow casted by the ring is way to strong I think. Maybe having another diffuse light source would have reduce the shadow.

nice capture, clean, crisp. Well lit. However, I doubt that the buckle is the most interesting part of that watch.

Good lighting; no shadow, no reflection. You should have positioned the hour hand to not obscure the watch maker name. I can't see this picture as an ad with the watch maker name partially blocked.
