    - If you feel it’s nice, say “Very nice!”
    - If you feel it’s is so-so, say “Congrats!”
    - If you feel it’s ugly, say “Thanks for sharing!”

    I think not all people use the above phases in the same context that you put down. There are people who say "Thanks for Sharing" but do mean that its nice.. ... I would be more incline to think that if they watch is not nice , there is no need or feel to even comment at all. But given the above setting I will tend to now wonder about people when they put the above when I do post a pict as it does set me thinking does the guy meant it (ie its ugly).... hmmm....
    I fully agree with the underlined statement.

    At the same time, I question the mentality of expecting nothing less than praises when one shares his watches on the showcase.

          Me too. I couldn't understand what it means? Does it mean something "good" or "not too bad" or "just bad" in a nice way?
          Is this what it meant - you have already bought a lemon or paid high price for that watch so might as well don't be sad, stay healthy and continue to wear it?

            Could be an ang mo thingy? In Chinese we don't talk like that. To some it might even sound like a curse

              I think members r trying to say 'Wish you always stay healthy (after buying it)'

              Might be wrong

                  The other is that this is a known Irish Blessing...

                      I am also very curious where the wear your watch in good health came about. I also use it sometimes cos I see people post, I also post.

                        The SG Chinese will probably say something along this line... "wear it and huat ah!"
