What kind of dumbass would spend that much on a watch?

Just smile non-genuinely and say “Sure.”

“that’s a lot of money for such an ugly watch.”

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

seems like a giant waste of money when you have phone that has the time on it.

Not gonna argue that it’s not a waste of money to get a watch that expensive, but just having a watch is quite nice. Not having to fish my phone out of my pocket and click the power button every time i want to check the time is something i appreciate.

That’s why you have a personal assistant follow you around!

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.

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

If you’re an astute collector, fine watches are (like art) a solid form of investment.
captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 21 hours ago
Prove me wrong: Fine art is a money laundering scheme.
You get some guy who went to art school to slosh some house paint on a sheet. You then hire a white woman who dresses like Malian royalty to come describe it in contradictory adjectives “It’s subtle, yet bold” while her gay sidekick in a turtleneck flamboyantly slaps his face and gasps. Sell $20 worth of cotton and $30 worth of Valspar for $3.247 million, and you’ve just successfully covered up the sale of 94 more brown women.

A classic that always makes people like this angry is the good ole, "Anyways, [Something you are casually going to do today or did yesterday]- " and a hand wave to dismiss the statement.
It infuriates them lol

So you could have donated that money to a food bank or homeless shelter, or just kept it and invested in dividend paying stock, but instead you spent it on a watch that tells you the same time as my $20 watch?

So it’s not even accurate? I’m not sure you got a quality timekeeping device for the cost.
AeonFelis@lemmy.world 18 hours ago
It never gets to 60. For some odd reason it only gets to 59 and then drops back to zero.

When I was at school, the kids would say, “my dad’s shed is bigger than your dad’s shed”. But that was a long time ago, and we each had a child’s view of the world. Most of us grew up.

Either dishonest affirmation or “That’s nice, buddy” and touch his shoulder.
With people you might need later it’s the first option, the second if you want to piss off narcissists.

"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)
Soleos@lemmy.world 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.
