And I hate to break it to you but most shoes women spend good on money are not functional either. I guess it'd have to be handbags, but I definitely can't justify spending a lot of money on those.
Do all of you wear watches you spend all this money on or are they just collectibles? Do you have a nice one that you wear for special occasions and other ones that you wear all the time or do you always wear the nicest you have?

Seems silly, and an anachronism. A wrist watch was reduced to a vanity item with the advent of small, personal communication devices.
You only have that one opportunity to make a first impression that you have personal confidence issues you are attempting to compensate for with a watch or a car or whatever prop you include in your personal presentation.
In your personal life, how interesting will it be to interact with the people who first approved of you because of what you were wearing, or driving?
Business, on the other hand, is business. You have to meet your perception of the expectations of those who have the option of selecting you, and your talent, product, or service, vs, those competing with you.
If you carry, into your personal life, your perceived need to ornament yourself in the way you think you need to, "for business", how interesting will it be to interact with the people who first approved of you because of what you were wearing, or driving?
