Would you notice your hairstylists watch

I'm a hairdresser in nyc, would you notice if your stylist was wearing an amazing watch or not. I had been wearing my black dial daytona until I sold, I was a bit concerned about water, scratches on the polished links, etc so I sold. What would you think if you saw stylist wearing any rolex...

I notice everyone's watch.

And I would think: they have good taste in watches.

I notice everyone's watches so yes, I would. If I had a stylist who was wearing one I would try to strike up a conversation about it. Usually I would never comment on other's watches but in that situation I think I would.

Yeah, me too. If I had enough hair to actually go to a stylist I would indeed check out his watch. I certainly notice everyone else's.......

I would notice, because my wife cuts my hair. If I saw her wearing a Rolex, I would be excited. I have been trying to get her into watches; I'd be happy if she wore a watch at all.

I would first think "wow" he must doing pretty well. Then I would ask myself how much am I paying for this haircut? Then I would talk to you about watches.

Same. WIS are few and far between in the real world though. Unless it's a gold rolex, I doubt many will take notice.
