Set the ambient on the metal surfaces to 0, and give them more to 
reflect, as well as more reflection and stronger highlights. The brass 
texture looks dull, try increasing the reflection value.  Try to make 
sure that ambient + diffuse + reflection <= 1 for most cases...

The watch would probably look better on a patterned surface, try putting 
it on some wood, with a block of wood behind it. Another thing I often 
do when testing metals: use a sky_sphere with a black-white wrinkles 
pigment.
