A lot of replies here still wander into sounding mad imo Instead, I would fake not getting the insult and just make them uncomfortable by saying something like "Wow that's cool :D" and then just move on. Sort of like when you acknowledge a child doing something dumb but they're so proud of it you don't want to ruin it for them.

"Was it meant to make you happier? I'm not sure it worked."
Will your regular charge you half price when she doesn't see you wearing it?
Bragging is lower-class behavior
don't. make a "oh poor guy" face and move on. he wants you to engage, to be angry, if you don't he will be mad

"and i have a piece of cardboard thats worth more than your watch" whips out a charizard
'I can think of many better uses for the metals in that watch.'
this movie, glengarry glen ross, was so fucking good. definitely worth a watch if you enjoy watching masterpiece acting. kevin spacey is in it though (his acting is great he just sucks as a person)
Never has a movie made me feel so uncomfortable for the characters sacrificing themselves for the grind. It’s good, but I don’t have much desire to see it again. A testament to the writing/acting/directing to keep the tension real.
That watch salesman really ripped you off then.
That's cool, but MY watch has a Tomagachi living in it.
I couldn't care less.
Ok, and what's your question?
"What a horrible financial decision"
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.
That's not a very high bar, boomer.
"Okay and does it tell the time?"
K
You still use a watch?
Jokes on you, with the deferred maintenance, my car has negative worth.
This isn't a car
"good for you, little guy"
Smile and say "it's very pretty".
What time is it?
"your wife is still sleeping with the pool boy"
Shoot the man.
neat
Good for you, why should I care?
Imagine not being able to tell the time by just looking up
"Wow, I guess you really CAN'T buy taste then"
Has this one done it? or how many such watches in do you get to be happy?
Cool. Anyway...
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.
'nice watch!' then move in and quietly say "oh, hey, it looks like your barber missed a spot back there"
"Big deal- I also have a small cock."
No wait I wanna change it to "I have a small cock too, but nobody can tell just by looking at me"
