S neither uses Fastrack nor Casio but sits to the immediate left of the one who uses Rolex. As many persons sit between S and R as between R and the one who uses Fastrack who faces P. No one sits between the one who uses Titan and Q. The one who uses Titan and the one who uses Casio doesn’t sit together.

Option A

Immediate left

Solution :

The correct option is Immediate left.


Step-by-Step Explanation and Seating Arrangement:


Let us arrange the 6 persons (facing towards the center around a circular table) step by step based on the given clues:


Step 1: Position U and the Fossil watch user
Six positions around the circular table facing center (let positions be 1 to 6 in clockwise order).
Let the person using Fossil be at Position 1.
Since U sits second to the right of Fossil (moving counter-clockwise for right when facing center), U is at Position 5.


Step 2: Position T
The person facing U (opposite to U at Position 5) is at Position 2.
T is an immediate neighbor of the person facing U (Position 2), so T can be at Position 1 or Position 3.
Since Position 1 is occupied by the Fossil user (and later conditions align), let T be at Position 3.


Step 3: Position Rolex and S
Only one person sits between T (Position 3) and Rolex. So Rolex can be at Position 1 or Position 5.
Position 1 is Fossil and Position 5 is U. Thus, Rolex user is U (Position 5).
S sits to the immediate left of Rolex (Position 5). Facing center, immediate left of Position 5 is Position 6.
So, S is at Position 6.


Step 4: Position P, R, and Fastrack
Fastrack faces P.
As many persons sit between S and R as between R and Fastrack.
Position 6 is S. If R is at Position 4, then 1 person sits between S (6) and R (4).
Then 1 person sits between R (4) and Fastrack user at Position 2.
Since Fastrack is at Position 2, P (who faces Fastrack) must be at Position 5.
Thus, U is P! So P uses Rolex at Position 5.
The remaining positions for persons are:
Position 1: T (uses Fossil)
Position 2: Q (uses Fastrack)
Position 3: Titan user
Position 4: R
Position 5: P / U (uses Rolex)
Position 6: S


Step 5: Verify Titan and Q
No one sits between Titan user and Q. Titan is at Position 3, Q is at Position 2 (they are immediate neighbors).
Q (Position 2) sits to the immediate left of the Titan user (Position 3) when facing the center.


Therefore, the position of Q with respect to the one who uses Titan watch is Immediate left.
