Why Gloves?

Post by mattcantwin » Tue Dec 04, 2018 4:37 pm

I came across a sales post for a Tudor.

Seller is wearing gloves, but states in post, "Worn daily for a few months..."


Maybe he had the gloves on when he wore the watch. :raised:


Actually looks a bit creepy.

Looks professional, like he actually cares.

Maybe he has nasty looking hands.

His gloves aren’t fitted. He needs to step it up.

Maybe they're not gloves.

No, it's not Tourettes.

I get the white glove thing in some sales posts, even maybe the nitrile looking gloves sometimes, but I agree that these look like creeper gloves.

I’m thinking this guy is either a mechanic or lays concrete for a living. That would explain the gloves and the condition of the watch.
