Something I have been wondering while reading reviews....

Some reviewers mention how this provider is a clock watcher and it detracts from the service. Some reviewers mention how their provider is not a clock watcher and they'd go over time a bit and it was no big deal. Does anyone ever just set a timer? Is that an odd thing to do? I figure a provider worried about going over (and nothing wrong with that) could focus more on the task at hand with a timer being set. I don't know... just me thinking about stuff. Total newbie.

The most common is to have a music set than runs one hour, or two, or whatever increment is needed.  

Just because someone reports a provider as a clock-watcher, does NOT mean she was literally glancing over at a clock or her watch.    
It can often mean that she was more businesslike than he prefers or even that he was hoping for some OTC time which was nipped in the bud.  Or it can actually mean that she asked him to leave the very second his paid-for session ended.
It's hard to say, so my  best advice is to look for patterns.  If one or two reviewers out of 50 say she is a clock-watcher..... I wouldn't give it much merit.  But if the majority have that experience?  Well then, she likely DOES shoo her gentlemen callers out the door in short order.  

Please keep this in mind, though: We providers have to walk a fine line between being thought of as the dreaded "clock watchers" and allowing ourselves to be taken advantage-of by those who want more than their paid-for time.  

It's a tricky, sticky issue for all and we each have to find our own balance.  :-

For example, placing a clock that's easy to read from a distance, where it can be seen at a glance.  I like that approach as then I can easily see how much time is left and be sure to allow enough for a shower, if needed. Yes, that's "clock watching" but it can be subtle. Another, even more subtle, method I've seen several providers use is to have a timed playlist that has songs she knows are at time break points based on how long she schedules sessions.  

I have no problem with a timer, as long as it's not one of those kitchen timers that goes BBBRRRRRNNNGGG!!!  Maybe set a timer on her phone that plays a song when it goes off.  

(Edit: I wrote this before I saw Debra's reply, thus the overlap.)

...since she's the one who will be concerned if she goes over. I'll make a mental note of the time as I enter her incall but I don't ever check it again until I'm putting my clothes back on. I have never been shorted, and have had only had one clock watcher so far, That was just one of several reasons that I will not be calling her again anytime soon.

Some providers say on the site or ad, "I don't watch the clock and be prepared to pay for any extra time spent" That does seem odd but at least they say it up front. I'm not worried about it too much I just was wondering if setting a timer was common practice. Just seems easy and fair.

Everything said here looks true, But only the provider can learn- or make decision to spend extra time with someone they really enjoyed. totally up to the companion, not up to the visitor.  Visitor can ask to donate to more time if he needs more time for whatever reason. How ever  schedules may not permit it.  
Completly a good practice to stay in good favor with each other or word will get around I garentee, keep a smile on your face with any decision and be respectful.

Hookers want to spent time with clients off the clock go for it. All levels hookers not working in this business for FREE. No one should take advantage some one time. Paying clients don't need a clock watcher-bad business. Have a TLC day!!!!!!!!

They should not have to be rude but when time's up, people nedto be moving to finish up & get dressed.  
Yes, music play lists, clocks, just a good sense of time.  A one time Fav had a small travel clock...  I eventually realized that it was always in the room we played in.  I could not see the bed side clock...  once there was even a pillow on it, another time it was turned around.  I never caught her looking at any clock..

Book an extended date if you want a relaxed session.     Short timers are sometimes looking for free time.

Or like when you go to a counselor or therapist, and they're like "Ok, ten minutes left of the session" then five minutes before "Ok, five minutes left of the session". Just felt awkward and like they didn't care. lol!

I've had a few times where I've watched the clock due to agencies or shared in calls. Now if I feel a client is trying to take advantage, and might stay over half an hour or an hour - I might make it obvious that I know what time it is if they start milking it. (Nobody likes to feel taken for granted / client or provider.)

There are some people who consider "not a clock watcher" as turning an 2 hour date into a 3 or 4 hour date so as not to look like a clock watcher. I don't get that too often, but there's a skill to not get taken advantage of, but also not make them feel their "time is almost up". It's impersonal and weird lol.  

I like people to enjoy themselves, and the goal is to make it feel like a real date. I'm pretty engaged in the date and not thinking about the time, but I do notice my body has a built in auto timer and I don't even need to look at the clock. It's a skill to be tactful and smooth about it, and really be engaged instead of thinking about how much time you have left. I think you can tell when a provider is "on the clock" versus fully engaged. (I.e. it's more an attitude thing than a time thing.)

It's a skill to guide the date in such a way that the client feels the provider is fully enjoying him/her, and not "watching the clock for her lunch break."

Again, my question is, am I acting like we're on the clock, or am I fully engaged in the date/enjoying the date during the time we have. (Attitude thing.)

But I do recall, especially when I offered 1 hours, a lot of guests used the "clock watcher" phrase to manipulate for free time. "Oh, you're not a clock watcher, are you?" Used to have me shaking in my heels "Oh, no. I don't want to be one of them!!! Aaaah! 😱" lol!  

It worked on me for a little while, until I caught on to the little trick. What TER meant for good, some hobbyists used for evil. lol!  

Not all do, lots feel not being a clock watcher is more of an attitude thing - fully engaged, lost in the moment - enjoying the date. And they usually leave on time, feeling good about the whole experience. Feels more real.
