I have no idea. As I said it hardly register on people's radar. The place you live, maybe, and even that is misleading: In Paris the XVIth arrondissement was the posh one, VIIth was old money; Nowadays XIth and XIXth, once popular/poor areas have become very gentrified so you could say that simply living in Paris is bourgeois. But what's on your wrist? No
WIS don't categorise people's watches as "bourgeois", even here. There are many watch brands that hardly cross the Channel: BRM (our version of Graham, but Bernard Richard is a genuine character and a jolly nice chap, even though his watches are not my cup of tea (or should that be "verre de vin"?), Hegid, Charlie Paris, Gustave & Cie, SYE... You do know B&R, Herbelin, Alain Silberstein, maybe not L. Leroy. I won't even go on the Haute Couture brands (Chanel, LV, etc.)
