Great shots, just compared them with some watch shots I took with the K5 & Pentax 100mm Macro lens.If they were being judged, the report would read. Yours, first class shots.
What kind of lighting did you use? Watch photography is one of the hardest thing to do. I had to take around 6-7 different shot for each watch and each watch normally take me around 1 - 1.5 hours to shoot since it is extrmely hard to get the angle right and lighting is extramly diffcult as well since the watch is so small and with with the lights I got it is not easy to control lighting.

One thing that has puzzled me about the photozone resolution tests is what effect will they have on less than 100% photos, if say resized to 50% or less. That, I suspect, is what happens when we print at least 99% of photos, for most of us.
At the end of the day, the 18-135mm lens is not aimed for the professional market. It is for you have carry only one lens to cover your holiday snaps.
For me even when I go travel I do carry most of my lenses with me, The only lens I always leave at home is the DFA 100mm macro which I have the 50-135 to cover.
I normally mount my sigma 18-50 2.8 to walk around but it is not the best lens and if possible I switch to the FA31mm or the sigma 50mm 1.4 to shoot.
If you want good images you can not be lazy, you just have to change lenses when needed. If the 18-135mm is very good then who is going to buy the prime lenses?
