Do you wear a watch?

Now that everyone has their phones out all of the time, do people still wear traditional time-only watches?

I still wear my watch almost all of the time. I just find it more convenient than taking my phone out to check the time.

Yes, I wear my watch when I am out.
Feel "naked" without it and also because it is more convenient to glance at my watch than to whip out my phone.

Re: Do you wear a watch?

I wear a watch every single day. I teach so I feel like I am constantly looking at it to time the lesson. Days I forget to wear one, I am lost.

I have a traditional Michael Kors watch and I have a Garmin smart watch (Ability to see phone notifications, but not surf the web). I wear whatever best matches my outfit.

Re: Do you wear a watch?

I need my watch- I feel naked without it and if I forget to wear it I keep checking my wrist all day for the time- even though I have a phone with the time, a laptop up and running with the time.. etc'

ETA- it's a regular watch, not a smart watch or fit bit. A fit bit would be a huge waste for me- and it would most likely die of boredom on my wrist.

Re: Do you wear a watch?

this thread made me realize something too.... there aren't any old school clocks on the wall in my office.
I can't recall if we had clocks on the wall in our old building, but since moving in here last year I now realize there are no clocks.
Not that it matters- everyone's desk phone and computer display the time, but it's funny if you think about it.

I have a wall clock in my kitchen and an alarm clock in my bedroom at home- but if you think about it- you don't even need that anymore- it's more of an accessory or wall hanging than anything else!

Until a week ago, I wore a time-only watch. It came in handy in the middle of the night to see the time b/c I don't have an alarm clock by my bed (it's on DH's side). However, last week I bought an Apple Watch. So - I still wear a watch, but now it's one that syncs to my phone.

Every day. I love watches and have quite a few. I feel "naked"without it if I forget to wear one, but I soon as I get home, I take it off. For some reason I "need" one when I'm out, but it annoys me when I'm home

Me too. My batteries in both of the main ones I wear have even been dead for a while but I haven't bothered to change them!

Re: Do you wear a watch?

Depends on my mood.

I have sand watch with sand from the site of Luke Skywalker's home on tatooine film location (geeky right?). I have a wood watch made of pine. I have older wind up watches and eco watches. So it's whatever I feel like or none at all.

Re: Do you wear a watch?

Other. For my job I should be wearing a watch. However, the batteries keep dying or the second hand stops working.. I need a good watch that I will wear. To me it is like jewelry. I only wear a wedding band most days.

Re: Do you wear a watch?

I used to for years & years depend on a watch. If it broke or the battery died, I had to go out & get one that same day. This time most recently when my strap broke, I couldn't be bothered. Now I just use my phone.
