Since early on I was recommended to use a punting watch, a cheap watch that I wouldn't mind losing. The punting watch is indispensable for me as it paces my punts, and importantly has saved me from being short-timed.

But then I had a few punts where girls have invented "no watches allowed" rules, presumably so they can short-time me without it being noticed. Granted, these few punts all ended up being shit, so such a rule is probably a good indicator of a control-freak or short-timer which warrants saving my money and walking away.

Just curious, has anyone else run into this?

Most of my punts are with reliable well established SPs who aren't clock watchers. They are usually 1 hr + and I have a good body clock that invariably tells me when its time to check the time.

If I go for a half hour P&D then I am more interested in the fuck than how long I stay. Once I have filled the bag it is often me who initiates the "closing procedures" and I am out the door at 25 minutes

Never encountered a no watches rule.
Maybe it should be on the "Enjoys" list as discretionary". Only joking 
Could be that it is only used in certain parts of the country,
or by certain nationality's ?
Must admit, I've not worn a watch for many a year now.
Just use my phones for knowing the times.

If an SP told me I couldn’t wear my watch, I’d politely say no and then walk on principal if she tried to insist.

Fuck’s it got to do with them if I keep my watch on or not.

Never experienced this but if I did I would be suspicious. Most girls will want you out pronto and short time you. And when you have the raging horn it's virtually impossible to keep time without device.
Considering I only last a couple of minutes if all goes well, I like to pace myself so I thoroughly enjoy my 15 minute appointments. This would be the only reason I keep a watch.
I think everyone should time their appointment and make the SP aware that you are doing so.

I've worn a watch since I was about 8 years old, never been asked to take it off by a WG.

Is that hand smaller than t’other due to reduced blood flow?
At 8year old you must have had a big paper round to afford and look old enough to punt. 

Can you tell the time yet? 
No watch would mean no punt for me.

It's digital, thankfully 

First time I’ve ever heard about a “no watch” policy... not come across it before at all. 

I have left my watch at a previous regular’s place and forgotten it once or twice, but just collected it on the next visit.  It was as you say though “a punting watch”, not one that I’d want to lose, but not an expensive or sentimental one either.

Is it the same mickey mouse one?

I'm not as old as you pal, it's Danger Mouse 

Could be due to hidden cameras. Two different escorts I saw mentioned hidden cameras in different bookings and when I was being nosey on Saafe around summer last year I saw a thread about the same thing. Obviously may not be the case, but could be.

Just a quick search on Amazon you'll see all kinds of hidden cams, from pens, key rings to suit buttons - unless they plan to strip you naked and put your belongings in a locker or box, hidden cams are not limited to just watches.

I have never come across this before but I have been to some fbsm places where there has been a clock on the wall and they all seem to be running 10 minutes fast so if you book an hour you only get 50 minutes going by their clock 

I've found most Chinese and Thai massage places I've been to have a wall clock, to the extent that I normally keep an eye on it now and put my watch away. As long as we are both measuring an hour by the same timepiece it matters little if it's in its own time zone. I suppose it could run fast, but that would be difficult to arrange.

Never experienced the no watch policy, but I have experienced the wall clock set 5 or 10 minutes fast policy 

But then I had a few punts where girls have invented "no watches allowed" rules

I know it can be a hassle to sort thru reviews but maybe you give us a quick link to such an offender?

One awful Thai lady I saw last year complained to the agency I was more interested in my watch than her. I really was more excited about accurate timekeeping to round my booking off at the 29 minute mark and get the hell outta there

Had a decent punt a while ago and i've never once worn a watch, phone is fine but it was odd how the girl when asked how much longer have we got seemed to know quite accuratly and no phone or clock in evidence anywhere that I coudl see of?.

Perhaps they get so used to it then just devlop a sense of timing!!

If there was music playing she could have judged it by that, when the track a particular track starts she knows you're xx mins in.

I once had a smart watch, bad mistake wore it to a punt.

Wife rung as I was balls deep in an SPs mouth on her living room floor. Took the watch off and threw it across the room, havnt worn it since 

I thought having the watch on DND and airplane mode stopped it ringing.
I was wromg, my boss called during HE.

I still wear the watch but make sure the phone it’s connected to is switched off.

I didn’t answer it!

I was made to removed it for fisting - she saw that was not waterproof

I’d be concerned about other stuff besides water! 

Good stuff, I had to test this myself to confirm - the phone has to be in aero mode for both not to ring. 

I looked into it further, on the iWatch, in the watch app on the phone, you can set the iWatch and iPhone to mirror aero mode.  So if you set it on one, it sets it on the other if they're in bluetooth range.

Otherwise the watch still does bluetooth with the phone, hence calls happen on the watch despite the watch being in aero mode.

True, my colleague on one of our trips to FKK in Germany wore a watch with a spy cam & was able to record all his sessions 

So I understand if thats the reason for banning watches as they may have a cam.

Also in the same FKK some fit stunner tried to cancel my session after she noticed that my Apple watch was set to monitor the session  I just assured her it was not an issue of trust - her reply was leave the time keeping to me 

In all watches help, as stated earlier at a massage place I noticed the clock was 10 mins ahead too & they gave some bullshit excuse when I asked why, but its the same clock they look at when saying " we don't have much time left " such a scam me thinks.

I’ve come across this scam too. Try insisting on either the clock for start and finish times or the watch and suddenly her number of English words can be counted on one hand. At one, the lights get turned down irrespective of adjustments and the clock is only visible when she’s finished. Any timers are mysteriously in sync with her ‘kicking out time’.

We’re on slightly firmer ground with Geylang knock-shops and friendliness with the male come-inside receptionista.

If seeing a escort, I usually set an alarm on my watch, so dont need to look at my watch.  For a one hour booking i set my watch alarm for around 50 min's later, so then i know, my time nearly up

I only wear a very basic watch to a session — but on the inside of the wrist, which makes it easier to see.

guy had the strangest looking glasses on

I know the type of glasses your talking about, used to have a pair a few years back.  Bought them to see how good they were, and would suit what I wanted them for.  Poor footage to what I'm used to, with other cameras for cycling, and memory not that big

The camera is hidden, in the glasses just above the bridge of your nose, and unless you know what your looking for, you wont suspect anything

In my opinion it's definately to do with secretly filming nothing to do with timing of the booking. Slightly off topic, but a few weeks ago I had a booking and the guy had the strangest looking glasses on, maybe it was a fashion statement
Both SSs and SPs need to be vigilant.

Yes there is such a thing. They are quite chunky, nice for tourism when it's not practical to hold a camera. Investigative reporting has used them as well to expose criminals. There's no justification for an honest punter to do that any more than walking out without paying. It's the sort of stuff that will understandably make p4ps more paranoid and spoil their attitude for the rest of us.

I would suggest challenging the guy and asking to have a look at them. See if there is a concealed mini-USB port. If he doesn't let you look, then explain the concern.

Maybe some guys starting out think it's reasonable. I don't. I think it's a horrible invasion of privacy. Years ago before everything found its way online, some p4ps, especially abroad, were happy to have their photo taken for private enjoyment, especially if they were promised a copy (easy to do with a small travel printer). Nowadays it's strictly something that involves extra payment and only if offered.

p.s. challenging at least sorts it out one way or the other. You can't go blacklisting him just on suspicion. He might just like being a geek. These glasses for instance could be dodgy but probably aren't...
