I believe people notice.

It’s just most are uncomfortable saying.

Just think about it.

You ever seen a man wearing a nice tie?

Did you tell him?

And lord help the women who noticed.

If she were to day something these days most younger men would think it an invitation to start hitting on her.

It’s just chilvary and civility is not as common as it once was and people are reluctant to acknowledge people they don’t know

My first automatic watch is the Tissot Gentleman with a blue dial and metal bracelet. It was something I saw on a Baldassarre video.

I’m like the watch a lot, but I’m afraid it has ignited a desire to collect a few others. It certainly awakened me to the beauty of a quality watch

Wow! I can’t believe how fast you’ve all responded to my post. I really appreciate the “why” each of you provided with your answer. Most of which, of course, I never even considered. What really struck me, was the romance, or emotion, that came with handling your watch, and resetting it, if needed, each time you wore it. “Bonding “ reminded me Cigar smoking. It’s more than just the smoke. It’s picking the time and place, choosing the friend you will share with, choosing the cutter and igniter, and the beverage. It’s much more than just sliding a cigar. I appreciate all the answers, and I believe I will be looking for a good box to store my watches as my collection grows. Thank you all, and have a safe day….rl
