Pretentious nobbery

Some watches have the weirdest branding. Throw in a couple of black and white photos of vintage airplanes and hey presto, an association with the old days of flying even though the brand started in the 1980s. Bizarre.
I quite fancy this watch

Long journey tomorrow so was getting out my non pretentious wilko flask which does the job as good as
506376

Found this in the back of cupboard don't remember buying it probably because I didn't. Claims it keeps things hotter for longer and colder for longer. It doesn't say what it's better than. But does have wide mouth...brill. again no CUP. USELESS
 
At last I have something I bought AND paid full price for and could definitely be considered nobber pretentious.... not by me though.

Would the act of mere possession of a bottle of long-aged Lagavulin Islay malt whisky count as pretentious nobbery?. The stuff is about £60 a pop! Not bought by me though, was a present from a good mate's girlfriend last Xmas. I allowed myself a wee dram to celebrate with on Brexit night..... Very distinctive strong peaty flavour, not like your Teacher's & Bells!

We do agree on a couple of things then, if not Brexit! It's certainly fine tasting stuff, but could be a rather expensive habit to acquire.
I suspect the £80k malt is only ever bought as an alternative investment by high net worth individuals, not to actually drink.....
