The Stripper and the Patek
The Stripper and the Patek Mar 22, 2005 - 12:50 PM
(This is a reposting of an article on another watch forum). PLEASE NOTE - I am a Patek owner and my wallet has on average about $15 (if I am lucky) in it! Last week I was entertaining some Japanese business guys and they wanted to see a strip club. So we go to a strip club in sleepy little Nashville but I forgot that I had my 5970 on my wrist. We find a spot and settle in, sip a drink and a beautiful girl sits down. After a few minutes of small talk she says "That's a Patek isn't it?". Feeling stupid and more than a little worried I say "Nope, just a cheap copy". Looking at my wrist in almost total darkness from 3 feet away she says "Yeah, it's too big to be that calendar stop watch they make... what's that one called again?". I'm thinking 'how the hell does this chick know about a 3970?'. "Why the interest in watches baby?", says an uncomfortable HRC. "I can sort men by their watches and shoes" says the expert. "Rolex guys are all flash, average wallet holds $120... a waste of my time", she tells me. "My last Patek customer bought me a new car!" I couldn't leave fast enough, spilled my drink on my Japanese friend and just about dove into the cab. I took my friends to a nice steak dinner instead and was not able to explain my actions. At this point they believe I'm afraid of women. |

Hahahaha... Smart girl.
Last time I was in a strip club, the guy sitting next to me had on a 90's YG Day-date. He was getting the $15 table dance special.... Hmmmm. Infer what you will with that one. Lol, :) |

Strippers are like car salesmen-they check out shoes and watches before they even say hello apparently.
Seriously, she's a pretty rare bird to know what a Patek looks like. Airline hostesses in first class are pretty knowledgeable about nice watches. |
