Interesting picture -
I feel that it would have been better had you been able to get over the top of the symbol. Depth of field would then have been retained over the whole image.
Losing bepth of fiels at the top and bottom but not at the sides has thrown the picture out of balance. I find the two catchlights at the bottom of the picture disruptive. With the silver item in the centre, you would expect the brightest catchlights to be there. I tried the picture in Photoshop and savagely cropped out everything but the symbol and one ring.
I believe it looked better -

nicely caught ripples. The symbol is pretty sharp too. The ripples are so subtle compared to the hard, shiny metal, that some of the impact is lost. Perhaps b&w or monottone would balance this out?
You'll probably get some low votes from the water drop haters, but I think it's well done. I was initially distracted by the background (towel?), but giving it a second chance, I think it adds something to the shot. Nice symmetry - I wonder how an off-center crop would look?
Not really interesting to me. I think I know what your going for, but you didn't quite get the shot. It would've been cool if you would've captured the splash of the drip and if the color was more vibrant. Just my opinion. 5
