When he really wants to brag about something, but doesn't want to sound like he is bragging, he "apologizes" for being a "snob" ... as if you will believe that he is afraid the quality is possibly a negative one.

You're supposed to be surprised that the quality he described is actually pretty awesome, and he was so totally not bragging about it at all. You're supposed to think "What a great guy, but he's so hard on himself." or "That doesn't make you a snob, you're just an awsome guy!"
