i quite like this - the only slight issue for me is lack of 'Wow' factor.

I wonder whether the background is too similar a colour to the tool ?

Nice concept but it looks a little flat to me. Perhaps it's the overall color cast.

Contrast is good. Maybe less of the mic and more of the fastener.

I like this and not too many have tried this association type of add. By putting the Micrometer you give the feeling of "Precise". Very nice. Product is well displayed and tones add to the feel of thead. Negative space makes text placement easy. I mat of gone wuth a tighter crop and less tilt but yours is very, very nice.
