What is the Spanish expression for "show off"? I am sure that it must have been answered in the past but I am a relative newcomer at this forum.

Noun or verb? A modest person may show off a prize possession, but we all hate a show-off! - Lector_Constante, Apr 12, 2011
Noun. And I think we all hate a "fanfarron". - faliron, Apr 12, 2011

SHOW OFF, the translation to spanish would be: "PRESUMIR". i.e.: I am going to show off my car=Voy a "presumir" my carro. I want to show off my new watch=Quiero "presumir"my reloj nuevo.
