The watch glancing routine from wearers of nice pieces is like dogs sniffing each others' rear ends. :lol:

I glance at wrist first, true. I think it makes sense to do so, because often times even in my dumpiest attire I have a nice watch on. Can't glance at my shoes when I have flip flops on. :wink:
:yeahthat Perfect. :!: Hahahahahahaha!!!! :D
Cheers,
Ron

I do it everywhere...I had a 9 hour layover recently in an airport and I tried to identify every single watch I saw...It helped pass the time at least.

When I meet someone on business or social, the first thing I look for is the watch, then the shoes, the the cut of the shirt, you can always tell if that person has got style.
And if I meet a girl, it's chest then ass :lol:

I live in SoCal where silicon prevails. Headlights can be bolted on down the road... I always check out the caboose first ;)

Yeah happens with people who are aware.

A new guy at work - started Tuesday - was checking out my B-1, so next day I wore the Monty. He kept looking at that too. I couldn't see what he had on 1st day but didn't look up to much. Today (Thursday) he didn't wear a watch at all!

He lives in Thailand so is probably aware of fakes and therefore of the brand. So far he hasn't said anything so it's the Aerospace tomorrow - just messing with him now a bit! :twisted:

As far as the checking out others and the rewind bit - thank goodness it's not just me. Funny old world eh? We're a strange lot aren't we?

I'm not really there yet - so far I notice the face first, then glance towards the watch... :) It's at least a bit polite to look the person in the eyes first... :lol:

But, it took me a while surfing on PP's website to find out which model my company's president wears before I concluded it's a rose gold PP World Time.

However, I was amazed the other day how aware some girls can be. Picking up my daughter at kindergarten with a different watch for the third day in a row, a 5-year-old girl complimented me on the watch and said I had many beautiful watches. :shock: My daughter, very proud, replied - daddy has a box full! :lol:

Well, I am all in....since I really discovered Breitling about 4 years ago, I always check out the watch. I am a fan of nice time pieces, period. So, I want to know everthing there is about them.

As for IN2Deep, I am right with you, it's all about the rear, boobs are a dime a dozen this days.

Yes, yes. Watch first, face second -- always! :D Sometimes, if the guy
is wearing a nice piece, I never make it to the face -- eyes glued to
the watch. I'd make a terrible witness to a crime. I can just imagine
a detective asking me, "could you describe the assailant, Sir?"

"Uh, I'm not sure."

Well, what color hair did he have?"

"Don't know."

"Did you see his eyes?"

"Sorry."

"Was he black, white, Asian?"

"I really couldn't say"

" Well can you tell us anything at all about him?"

"He was wearing a Breitling Superocean, Coral dial, with a black

Ocean Racer strap. Will that help?" :lol:

Steve


classic..sheer brilliance...only we can understand this, the Breitling maniacs that we are...sir I can assure you it was not a Planet Ocean by Omega but a Breitling Superocean and the Ocean Racer strap...I am sure....I can only picture the cop's face.

hahah :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
