Luxury Chronograph Watch Product Photography Prompt

This prompt creates a dark and moody luxury product photograph

A single hero luxury chronograph dress watch with complications, displayed hovering weightlessly in mid-air directly above an undulating reflective dark liquid pool, with no additional supporting props. The focal subject is a luxury stainless steel chronograph watch with a silver sunburst dial, blue hands, complex subdial apertures, and a smooth cognac-brown leather strap, tilted at a dynamic counter-clockwise angle. The circular polished steel case features a prominent knurled crown flanked by two rectangular pushers along the right flank. The 12 o'clock strap section angles upward to the left and curves backward into the space, terminating as it recedes into shadow. The 6 o'clock strap section extends straight outward to the lower right, displaying a clean flat profile, fine perimeter stitching, and a rounded tip that terminates inside the frame. The watch casts an inverted, ripple-distorted mirror reflection directly below on the dark liquid plane.
