Reading a story about a cheating spouse...

I was reading a forum post online about a poor guy who had found out that his wife was having at least an emotional affair with some artist she met.

A detail of the story was that she had bought boyfriend an expensive watch, a Tag Heuer.

My takeaway from learning that detail was "well, there's no accounting for taste."

I've become a snob, I'm afraid

So does this translates into 'People wearing Tag Heuer are having an affair' ?

I think it means that people who buy their paramour a Tag Heuer don't have much taste, Marc.

That's a spouse that knows how much their husband makes.

Buying her side piece a Rolex would have sent up all kinds of red flags to her hubby! :-)

No, just that the guy's wife had poor taste.
