Its quite funny how often when you meet a person for the first time there are things /signals that you look for to decide whether you are likely to get on with them or not! ie judging a book by its cover!! I have a thing about watches, different people wear differnt makes of watch or if they have a collection the one they pick to wear often reflects their mood or even if they don't wear a watch it says a lot Just interested in what things SH members look for as visual clues which are not the obvious ones... I must say there are certain watch brands which are associated with certain types of individuals but whilst it would put me on notice it wouldn't mean that it would be the decisive thing that makes me like then or not as the case may be...
It's corny but..
..you don't get a second chance at a first impression. If i'm not happy in the first few minutes then it ain't goin' to happen
Would love to know what it means not to wear one, as I haven't worn a watch in over 6 years.
ive got a tommy hilfiger watch
so what does that say then ?

My personal favourite being my Pooh bear Timex. sadly only the hour hand is still working as the Honey pot fell off some decades ago :cry:

One of my pet hates is people wearing brown belts with black shoes and vice versa.

in my defence missy it was purchased on a whim and a vision of running down a wet sanded beach with my body board tucked under my arm, with my zippy up tassle flowing behind me, all in a slow motion type of image.....the likelyhood is that it will only ever get worn to clean out the fishpond in the privacy of my back garden or to satisfy the odd fantasy of mrs davej, should she ever want shagging by a Jacques Cousteau lookalike. I have no intention of sticking it on, throwing me leg over a motor bike and roaring up the road, whilst seated in a posture that reminds me of the position I once took whilst being subjected to an intimate body search :shock:
I apologise for getting off track but they made me do it.....
I have three watches which I change dependant on the shirt thats going to be worn. On a more general basis I do note the accesories that others wear and yes I do make an initial judgement based on that because it's part of the overal look.

nope, never.
But with clocks on Phones, computers, My PDA, My GPS, in my car, the radio...surrounded by them. Also working on construction sites I have bashed so many faces on scaffolding etc that I just chucked the last one away.
I never notice things like watches. I have mates who have £300 watches and it just doesnt impress me. Does it tell the time accurately? Is is easy to read? Job done!
Mind you, I did notice that Mickey Mouse has a Postie watch.

Well next time we are at a munch ..........just look over my way and you will see my watch :grin:
judge people on their watchs .................yikes
i just have a gold one ..................passed down from my mum
i have to admit first impressions count with me either love ya or hate ya
but its more a personality thing......... not what your wearing wink
I tend not to accessorise.
I do not own a watch. My mobile has a clock on it so I do not need one. If I do not have my phone on me and I want to know the time I ask someone who does have a watch. I do not notice the type of watch they have cos all I want to do is know the time.
I do not wear jewelry either, it annoys me. The only time I wear accessories is if I am donning a daft outfit for the village or a munch.... in that case I might wear one of my silly hats, or some pink plastic bangles, or a flag. Otherwise, I can't be bothered.
What does that say about me?
What I've found is that people who don't wear watches tend to be quite out going individuals who have confidence enough to know that normally if you simply look around there is always a clock somewhere. Plus the are confident enough to no be put off by asking a total stranger the time! Time is not an issue with them.
As for watches with cartoon characters....again reflects a playful element ..not afraid of being the centre of attention....

Well, I am 'sort of' with Bluexxx on this, as I tend not to accessorise unless I am 'playing a part' wink
The only accessory I wear is a £20 watch from Argos that gets replaced when it has done it's time rolleyes :roll:
All my 'good' stuff lives in my jewellery box :roll: Including my wedding ring lol :lol:
I don't wear one when I'm out of school, but the one I have in school is a Mickey Mouse time-teaching one. Not for me lol
The watch I wear a cast off from my son, with BIG numerals so I don't have to put any glasses on to read off the time. redface

I would definitely like to hear the explanation behind this as I own several watches, I always wear a watch! biggrin

I find that whenever i meet someone I judge them on watch, shoes, belt and if female handbag as well.

and your views on the handbag as I have a LARGE collection, is there a hidden meaning to handbags or is just a case of whether you like them or not, or how full they are? :shock:

I do not do small bags of any shape or form - that is what pockets were invented for. I have a rucksack, and a plastic carrier bag if I am taking a tooth brush. Job done cool

Really just a case of whether or not i like them, or they go with the outfit etc.
I have a four inch nail hammered into my wrist ..... I just hold it up to the sun and I know the time ....... if it's cloudy I stay in bed coz I think it's night-time. simple really.

I'm not hugely surprised by that Blue, I couldn't imagine you with a little sequined bag.....a rucksack filled with strap ons of increasingly scary proportions seems much more likely wink
