Thank you Raw Jaw, I was expecting your type feedback. I'm still figuring out how to effectively use the noise reductions tools on LR.

I think that your image was resized because you direct uploaded. Based on your tips, tried again.

I like you adjustments. I always use the side by side comparison windows when using LR.

Remember to save your adjustment as presets for future use for similar shots.

Regarding shadows, they are a photographer's best tool in making a 3 dimensional scene look nearly 3 dimensional in a 2 dimensional medium: the photograph.

For your watch, you may want to try separating the watch from the background, in his case perhaps with a small spool of thread to hold the watch up off the table.

Enjoy LR.

Thanks for the help, I think I can "play" a little more with your tips.
