 I chose a very high ISO (1600) and stepped up sharpness and saturation on the camera along with setting the WB as Tungsten (+3).

The only PP was Curves and USM.

You were robbed. I would have scored this much higher. The only beef would be possibly a somewhat darker background to help separate the scale face. BTW, "stepped up sharpness and saturation on the camera along with setting the WB as Tungsten (+3). Shot in Raw" is a little funny because shooting in RAW ignores all the other things you mentioned in that line.

I like this maybe it is the repetion of pattern maybe more vegatable would help out or a window in the background or sink ?

The overall image is too bright. I think the old scales suggest a darker setting, perhaps a dark background.
