I think it makes sense...better than being bullsh*tted in either direction.
Just drop in every few weeks or so and talk watches. Try developing a rapport around the subject without always bringing in the "when" and the "if" and the "maybe." Snag a $400 pair of earrings for your wife or GF. So what? That's what for most of us, half a day's pay? These SA's make 5% (most do). Show a little "love" and see what happens. Then, rate the (hopefully positive) experience on social media...that will also get you noticed.
Play the long game. Sounds to me like you are off to a good start. This is a luxury item acquisition that is won by patience and persistence.
Good luck!
