So a few weeks back I managed to snap some of these gorgeous timepieces that belong to none other than Marcus of Marcus Watches, London.

I'm not OC, but..................

It grates on me that there are too many watches in this shot.

The two square cases should be aligned horizontally on either extremity, level with the MP (top quadrant) which should be centred as the focus of the group and the two MPs (bottom quadrant) should be aligned between the square cases and the centre watch with their crowns level with the bottom lugs of the other three.

The MP (bottom quadrant) with the straight lugs just doesn't belong in this shot.

Please send it to me as payment for artistic advise.

At first glance, I thought that you said "snap up"!

Actually what is wrong is that each end watch should be at the same level. This would best be remedied by simply adding a watch on the right end.

Actually, if the owner of those could send me just one of the round watches (either 3rd or 4th from the left) it would leave 3 each of round and rectangular cases, making things MUCH more balanced and saving all the OCDers from their conniptions.

That's OK, D. I'll take #2 or #5 from the left.

I'm not picky.

If I did not know better, this almost sounds as though you have your own agenda. 馃
