To be fair an Omega, if genuine, could well be worth that without it being gold and emblazoned with diamonds.. It is only 1500 USD. Strange to keep it in your handbag. Most one sees here are fake though.

Either very basic "cheap" model or second hand/used.

A luxury Speedmaster (Moonwatch) is over 20000 USD. No diamonds.

S/He must be doing very well judging by the contents of his/her handbag.  Why does one need two iphones?  Which client gave him/her a 50 euro note?

The norm for "working" girls/boys.

One for business (freelance / sponsors).

One for private/family.

Less than iphone looks too cheap 😁

Even a 1000 baht note is considered a big deal here. Many stores can't make change.
