 OK the bracelet isn't Guess (antique) but it was more about composition than reality :)

A bit of work!
Crop
WB
Topaz Adjust
Noise reduction
removed a lot of dust specs (the set up was like a magnate)
saturation on the jewels
selective blur and sharpen and dodge
clone out some blur around reflected letters

Good lighting to get this type of detail from black - Clean and simple which is what it is

This is well-lit and looks like an ad you might see in a magazine. I would have moved the leather pillow slightly to have "GUESS" completely mirrored. The image might have been stronger with a different bracelet/item of jewelry that was more of a "statement" piece: there's a lot to look at here, and I have trouble figuring out which piece of the bracelet I'm supposed to focus on; however, I recognize this is completely subjective criticism.

I wish the reflected "Guess" hadn't been cut off.

Beautiful lighting. You really did a great job popping the edges and shapes against the black background.
