To be honest: The watch is beautiful. There is always room for improvement - in
your case it would be with the texture quality of the watch-band's silver
coating. It's reflective smothness is not quite aacurate - it's a tough problem
to solve but is possible and worth the effort to match the ego.
To be more honest: Having someone's hardwork, effort, creativity and personal
gratification presented with a slam-in-the-face attitude tends to salt the sugar
bowl. The people here are quick to embellish in praise for the work that
deserves it -  and fair, honest and accurate in the criticisms proffered. Please
remember that the next time you wish to hang your work with a gavel.

Woah!
I shure hope we don't have a stupid humanoid playing pranks on us here
:P

Now if you think, like someone noted the reflections look wierd. Also if
it doesn't use antialiasing it looks very 'unPOV' IMHO. POV without AA
looks more grainy.
I hope I'm not right and in that case I must apologize if I've upset
someone.

The watch is good, the capitalization is really annoying both in
the message and particularly in the title.  

Shouting seems to disturb the artistic ponderings and
concentration.

I didn't like Moray, I only tried it for a few days and abandoned
it.  I came to the conclusion that the major mistake that I had
been making with it was that I wasn't applying the POV
rules/structure because I was just thinking about what I could
see on the screen.  If now I were to go back to it which I won't
I'm sure I'd make a much better job of it.

ok see the thing is is that i got fustrated with moray..and i didnt need to
get the third degree from you guys cause of it ok! I just wanted an opinion
on my (might i say ) awsome lookign watch...ok! Lots of things in this group
are AWSOME! ok. And what i like about my watch is the textures and stuff
liek that, the metal finish took forever to make in photoshop and the
rendering time was just under 4 min, (i have a celeron 400 overlocked to now
500! he he he!)
So thats how i got it done...Now that im on everyones filter list all i got
to say is keep uo the good work too everyone!
