A question for the ladie: Ever notice a guy's watch?

Alright ladies - do you ever notice and/or comment on a man's choice of wrist wear? Is it a plus when you meet a guy who wears a nice watch?

No not really, I mean I notice it but it doesn't do anything for me. Neither does jewelry. My boyfriend reuses to wear a watch anyways, and half the time he doesn't wear a belt because he forgets--even though he purposely keeps it on the kitchen counter to remind him-ugh men.

If that's not grounds for a break up, I just don't know what is.....

A nice watch is always a plus, but i dont tend to notice it first. If hes got a mickey mouse on or something, well then yea.. thats gonna affect my decision to see him again. But a nice watch cant hurt, but isnt important

A finely crafted, quality time piece is oh so much more than just about telling time....

Well maybe in 10-15 years I will have a different opinion. I think it's more important what the guy is wearing. If he's wearing a nice suit and no watch-whatever. If he's wearing a nice watch but a horrid outfit...eh.

Honey, in 10-15 years it won't matter...you'll be married!

Fortunately, I'm here to bring a horological education to the masses.

...of course, you mention a nice suit....there's hope for you Nikki! You appreciate a man in a suit!

I find that most women will notice a nice pair of dress shoes on a guy before they notice a nice timepiece.

Nice watches....I've always liked TAG (I owned a 2000 quartz back in the day), but they have too many models which rip off Rolex designs (the one pictured is a Submariner clone)...

I love Tag's LINK line, that's what I'm wearing now (the auto LINK chronograph). It's from 2004, before they change the LINK line to the current, more dressy look (I think the previous design is a lot more sporty). I absolutely love the design of the LINK bracelet. Will post a pic when I get home..
