    Solution

    Only one person sits between Johnny and the one who likes Omega. Daffy sits second to the left of the one who likes Omega. If the one who likes Omega sits at place no.1, then Daffy sits at place no. 7 and Johnny sits at place no. 3. Johnny sits second to the left of the one who likes Casio. So, the one who likes Casio at place no. 5. Only two persons sit between Scooby and the one who has likes Casio. From this statement, we will have two cases: Scooby will sit either at place no. 2 or 8. Simpson is an immediate neighbour of Bunny. Bunny is not an immediate neighbour of Daffy or Johnny and he does not likes Casio. The one who likes Timex sits second to the right of Simpson. Bunny cannot sit at place no. 6, 5, 4 and 8. So, only place left for him is place no. 1. As Simpson is an immediate neighbour of Bunny. So, Simpson will sit either at place no. 8 or 2. The one who likes Timex sits either at place no. 4 or 2. Only three people sit between the one who likes Timex and the one who likes Citizen. So, the one who likes Citizen sits either at place no. 6 or 8. Donald sits second to the left of the one who likes Citizen. So, Donald sits either at place no. 4 or 6. Case-1 Case-2 Simpson does not likes Fossil. The one who likes Fossil is not an immediate neighbor of Simpson. Looney sits on the immediate left of the one who likes Fossil. The one who likes Rolex sits on the immediate right of the one who likes Hublot. Case 1 will get discarded as the one who likes Fossil cannot sit at place no. 7 and 8. If the one who likes Fossil sits either at place no. 4 or 3, then there is no place for Looney as Looney sits on the immediate left of the one who likes Fossil In case 2, if the one who likes Fossil sits at place no. 6, then Looney sits at place no. 5. The one who likes Rolex and the one who likes Hublot sit at place no. 3 and 2 respectively Only person left for place no. 4 is Mickey. Only watches left for Daffy is Tissot case-1 case-2 Final arrangement as shown below:
