See this casio watch? Still more accurate than whatever the fuck watch you have

It even comes with the bonus of extra TSA screening!

If you need to point out the watch and explain its value, you've already lost.

I have friends.

And I have the same watch, but paid $25 for it on a market in Cambodia.

Smile really big and start laughing. Maintain the smile, maintain eye contact.

[–] AlphaOmega@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago

Yeah, but can your watch drive you to the store ?

[–] Console_Modder@sh.itjust.works 55 points 1 day ago (4 children)

You see this? This is called a "smart phone." Not only will this tell me the time like your watch, but it can also do a bunch of other things. I can look at pictures of raccoons wearing silly hats or I can use it to insult someone on the other side of the planet. It also cost a fraction of what your watch cost. I'm sorry to tell you this, but I think it should go and get your money back. It sounds like you've been scammed. As a matter of fact, let me give you my friend's phone number. He's an accountant, and I think he'll be able to help stop you from making stupid purchases in the future.

Not only will this tell me the time like your watch

No. A cheap $100 phone is way more reliable than the most expensive Rolex thanks to NTP.

"Nice, but I kinda prefer the newer model from the spring catalogue. The subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a watermark."

"You got it wrong, expensive watches dont go faster"

[–] Soleos@lemmy.world 27 points 1 day ago

The statement is to set them apart from from you and to display power. So you could go with something like,

"Shit, they still make you buy your uniform when you rich eh. Some things never change."

But more elegantly. Reassert that they are subject to others' power/approval and relate to them to assert that they're no different from you.

"I don't have the habit of looking at other people's watches. Thanks for pointing it out, I guess, I might have otherwise missed that detail entirely."

(Biz-bro mind cannot comprehend this)

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 day ago

"What's your point?"

[–] moonlight@fedia.io 34 points 1 day ago (5 children)

And it tells the same time as a $5 Casio, but it's heavy and gaudy. I guess money can't buy taste.

[–] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 26 points 1 day ago (2 children)

And it tells the same time as a $5 Casio

Assuming the fancy watch is mechanical, your $5 Casio keeps better time with a quartz chip.

If it's not mechanical then it's basically the same device with an expensive shell.

"I wouldn't want to paint a target on my back like that. Did you hear about Chesterwick's son getting kidnapped while backpacking in Burma?"

"Cool story bro. Needs more dragons."

You paid that much for a watch that looks like you steal from your grandad?

“Why would I own a car? Our public transportation works fine. Or a watch, since I can already see the time from my mobile phone.”

"and yet your dad still don't love you."
