Modeling tutorial in Maya - ROLEX DAYTONA watch - Part 57: final render

In this tutorial I demonstrate how to model the ROLEX DAYTONA watch in Maya. In the end it should be about 50 videos from 5 - 10min. (over 7 hours)

I will use polygon and nurbs modeling techniques.... when the modeling stage is done I'm creating some UVs by using Headus UVlayout and create some textures in Photoshop. Finally I show how to create some shaders in Maya and render with mental ray.
This is a step by step tutorial ... but I recommend a basic knowledge of Maya.

Have fun modeling.

Any comment or critique is always very welcome :-)

i need some help i got the UV on the outter ring fixed and now im having trouble getting the texture on the wristband i put the texture on one side but i can't mirror it over well i mean i can but i cant delete the older half of the wristband without deleteing the whole thing since its setup as an instance duplicate you know what i mean?

[lookkool3]

is it possible to setup a back ground image so that the reflection on the watch shows a reflection of the background image or images? for example if you setup a image of a room with people in it so it looks like a real reflection
