I own several moderately priced watches. The only people who notice, are in fact, other men who know about watches. To date, I have never had a single woman compliment me on my watch(es). In most cases, if they ask, I have to explain what Tag Heuer is. If it isn't a Rolex, no one cares; and even then they'll mock you because it isn't a smart watch. Forget the price tag that comes along with your purchase, the sheep are only interested if it counts your steps. I hear it all day long.

Something else I've noticed. The only people that I see go on and on about apple/android watches or fit bits and counting steps, etc. are fat people. Counting your steps isn't going to make you thin. Lose the watch and go do something.

I actually purchased and wear my watch more so for me as a " reward " to myself for the years of hard work and not for anyone to notice but I get what you're saying about the attitude in this " new world ".

Too funny but you're probably right about the majority wearing those Apple watches and fitbits ........ though my wife wears hers often ...... as you've noticed she isn't part of the " said not in shape " demographic you're speaking of!!!
