    I look at his wrist and see a steel C-case Constellation in pristine condition.

    Me: Yes I'd like to buy that.

    Him: Oh no, I'm just joking!

    What was the point of that then? Was he just showing off the watch? Hoping to get a reaction? Or is he just a jerk?

    I've found this happening a lot lately, several times just this summer.

    It's probably because you don't look...but you stare so hard that their wrist hurts from it :)

    “Don’t stare ... it’s not polite... “ That’s the message. Watches or the opposite sex. Cars however ... ogle away. Owners of cool cars normally can’t wait to talk about em.

    The problem is I wasn't looking at this watch; he saw me looking at some vintage watches and approached me.

    Seems a bit like the childish equivalent of a thumb on the nose, wiggling of fingers and chanting "nanna.. nanna... nah na!"
