Please critique my photos

Trying to take better watch photos. Using a fuji xt30 with the 16-55 lens. Any feedback or tips would be appreciated!

My thoughts are that these look like they'd be used for a "for sale" thread. They show good detail but nothing particularly interesting about them. Try different settings, lighting, or different backgrounds if you're going for "artistic" photography. Cool watch though! Looks like it's been well taken care of over the years.

I think using a white background and changing the lighting would help a lot also there is an app call PhotoRoom you could use to edit your photo's.

A white background definitely is a better option as it'll show more details and will look more artistic.

Also taking pictures outdoors would work great.
