I'm still trying :)
Next week I decided that I will buy a cube softbox for this type of work.
And some lights (3 led lamps maybe).

What do you think?
It needs more light, more clarity, contrast?

Cheers

I wouldn't put a black watch on black fabric; maybe deep red or blue? I would also try the second hand at '20' (4) so that it doesn't obscure either the date window or the brand name.

Good job minimizing reflections.

I actually don't mind black on black and you did well controlling the light - no visible reflections, so that's very good.
The exposure however should be increased in my view and as @tirediron stated - the second hand would benefit if it is another position where it doesn't obscure any elements.
The bottom part of the fabric is also closer to the camera - thus getting my attention.
