I've allways been aware that one can be seen as a 'show off' and that asking about somebody's fake can be interpreted as part of the 'showing off'.
I love my watch, as we all do, but untill I get asked about it I'm not sure that I'm even aware of people noticing it. I never take it off so it's part of me and am no more aware of it than say, my nose. I'd miss it if it suddenly wasn't there!! I'm sure we've all had that feeling when we've had to remove it and suddenly you feel kind of naked!
I wish the fake had been real. I've got two daughters and could've done with one snaring a rich young man for a husband!!!

Regards to all. FB.

If there is any doubt, then there is no doubt.
Nice post, Frank!!
