I don't really see how.
Watches, fancy ones that folks get all "uppity" about, are pretty uncommon in the sense that the thing about which folks get on their "high horse" over is the extent of direct effort the maker puts into creating the watch. Did s/he make this part himself or did s/he buy it from an external supplier? I don't think that sort of thing goes on with any other kind of luxury good.
All the best.
