This is fabulous. I make Steampunk jewelry, which I incorporate watch parts into. Have always thought that the inside of a watch is beautiful with the damaskeening. Beautiful photo.

Liked, Awarded & Voted Technology Wonder. Had to look closely at both entries, and it is the script work that made my choice. You have many nice Macro images. I just bought a Macro and have yet to do anything with it.
