Do you still wear a watch?

[FoBoT]

no watch since the late '90's
once i started wearing a pager/cell phone got IT jobs where I sit in front of computers all day, then i have no need for a wrist watch

 

[Gooberlx2]

Nope, I use my phone when I'm out and about. Otherwise, I just look at my computer clock at work.

 

[spacejamz]

another Tag owner checking in...I feel off balance when I don't have my watch on...

I've been really surprised by the results. About 75% of the people I know, young or old, seem to have transitioned to cell phones instead of watches.

Nope can't stand watches. And they look tacky and gaudy. Can't stand anything on my wrist or fingers. If I ever get married (which I don't want to anyway) I'd never be able to wear a wedding ring. Would drive me nuts.

Me too! Glad Im not alone... I hate having anything in my hands, thus usually I stuff everything in my pockets, and I refuse to use umbrellas too.. Back in school even if I only needed one book + pen Id still take a backpack so that I didnt have to carry them in my hands LOL

The ring will be a serious problem for me though, since I actually like the idea, but it just doesnt seem practical

As others have said, a watch is the most appealing accessory a man can wear in the eyes of a female.

Only piece of "jewlerry" or "accessory" I wear. I don't carry my cell all the time, and wouldn't want to use it as a clock. With a watch, I can have a reliable clock for years at a time, with my cell, it's good till it runs out of juice. Oh, and I know of a few people who use their cell as a watch. They stuff it in their shallowest pockets so that a slight movement will cause their $300 phone to drop to the floor.

Generally just when I'm at work so I can tell when the heck I'll be done or how many more hours of suffering I have left.

[EngenZerO]

yep... a tag heuer carrera chrono.

 

[Juno]

myself as an industrial design major, i find it really annoying.

the only thing i have on my wrists is a braided bracelet (on the right wrist.)

 

[TwiceOver]

Negative. Can't stand jewelry. My wedding ring really bothers me, a watch is hell.

 

[Fern]

I don't wear a watch. Haven't for many years.

If I'm in my office, I've got the time on my PC or on wall clockes. At home, I've got clocks or can check on the TV (switch to info/TV schedule the time is displayed).

My truck has a clock in it too.

[ChAoTiCpInOy]

I love my watch. It feels weird if I don't have something on my wrist.

 

[natto fire]

Only on my days off of work. While working, I am pretty much assaulted as to what time it is, plus the watch would interfere with my work (I work with my hands a lot).

I think I look dorky with a watch, mostly b/c my wrist is so small

 

[ChaoZ]

Way easier to lift up my sleeve than to take my phone out of my pocket.

 

[Capt Caveman]

Crap. I forgot to put on my watch this morning. I feel naked!!!

 

[meltdown75]

yes, every day... same watch for 8+ years

 

[eplebnista]

Yes, a cheap casio digital.

 

[KMFJD]

I think i owned a watch about 25 years ago, only used it 3-4 times, never used one since.

This thread inspired me to go buy a new watch at lunch today, so now I have 2 functional watches, though I do not wear them at the same time. Thanks OP!

Your post inspired me to go change watches. Thanks KT!

No... but I want another watch. I just wish I could still find this one with the bright blue face.
