Good try mate ;) No worry we all (or just me) new here to learn how to get the "right" photos too  :Cheers:

If you are not using marco, can try to increase the aperture size so that you will not get that much of "blur", eg, the first page ;)

More to come ya ;)

Btw, nice looking watch ;)

Thanks man. I never use such camera before. For all this time I only use an auto focus camera. No wonder everything is blur  :HammerHead:... actually... I didn't focus at all.... just snap the pics... hahaha...  :laugh:

The pics are either having un-intended narrow depth of field and/or camera shake.  To shoot small objects such as watches using dSLR, you need to have the "right macro lens".  Otherwise, no point shooting them as you will be better off using a point-and-shoot camera to shoot. Point-and-shoot camera with its small sensor will actually have better depth of field (everything else being equal - same aperture and speed).  The only problem with point-and-shoot is the working distance as you will see your own camera in the reflection of shinny objects such as watches.
