@Stonehedge is using the zoom lens, not a prime, so using extension tubes will be nasty.

I think the easiest path for me will be to speak to some people with some knowledge and just buy a suitable lens to play with. I don't mind spending a bit of money. If I lose interest I can always flip it. I just like the idea of combining watch collecting/repairing/making hobby with taking photos and sharing them online.
Thanks for the offer of a trial though, much appreciated.

I see. I miss read. Thought there was a 50.
I’d buy a fixed lens then (because everyone needs one anyway) and some tubes.

Just use glassless extension tubes/rings for the 50mm? I think you can buy some which retain autofocus.
Sharp. Minimal cost.
