Interest in Item offered for sale and waiting for their chance to bit closer to the end of auction most bids come in in the last 5 minutes of auction.

Hi jjminca , the number of watchers may not be displayed based on a variety of factors, and usually will not appear when there are very few watchers for that item. This isn't a setting on either your account or your customer's, but instead would be determined by eBay.
