So what does an expensive watch say about you?
To paraphrase a radio/print ad I keep encountering...
"So what does an expensive watch say about
you?"
The company pushing the ad is of course trying to sell big-buck watches (based on ego I'm sure...), but
ladies and gents, what DOES an expensive watch say to you?
No I never really thought much about em. In fact I
hardly ever even notice someone's wrist watch, unless it's some gleaming hunk of flashy metal and jewels, and then
I usually have a "what an exhibitioninst" reaction (or "ewww, what were they thinking" reaction). What ever the
reaction, it isn't a positive one. At least for me.
But then again I sometimes run across some article on "what
to look for in a guy or girl" or "what to wear to lure that hot guy or girl" that suggests dropping some large
amount of your savings on such a piece. And much to my complete suprise, I not long ago had a conversation with a
woman who actually had "wears an expensive watch" on her list of what counts when she was looking for a guy.
(However I should also point out that she is nearing retirement and still single...).
Me? I'm happy as all get
out with my $35USD digital Timex. Even Presidient Clinton wore a Timex Ironman watch (also about $35). And we know
he got a girl or two (right Monica?).
So what all do the rest of you out there think? Especially in this age of
grabbing a cell phone to check the time rather than glancing at a wrist (or pulling out the pocket watch).
Does
what watch someone wears make any difference to you?
Does wearing a certain type of watch seem to affect how
others react to you?
Do those feelings relate to how you react in a "business" sense, a "dating/mating" sense,
neither, or both?
So take a little TIME and let us know.
