Do you still wear a watch?

I used to wear a watch, but the band broke, and I've been too lazy to fix it since then. 🙁

I hate having to get my cell phone to look at time, but I've gotten used to it.
 
Yes. To read the time on my cellphone, I have to reach into my pocket, fumble with whatever else may be in there as well (change, keys, etc...) pull it out, orient it, then read the time. My watch, I just raise wrist to a viewable level and...OMG I'M LATE!
 
I can't wear a watch. The last time I did I had bleeding into the wrist which was very painful. (Yes, I am a bleeder.)

Exactly! I keep a metal Timex around for fancier occasions 😛
Ultimate geek = calculator / telememo Casio watch!

My wife got me a triple sensor one for Christmas a few years back. The battery finally went and the place that changed the batt messed it up. (Walmart?) I loved it because I climb, dive and did live in wierd places with not so hot weather predictions. The Casio would graph the barometer. The only thing I have seen that does that. I could always tell what the trend was. I was the only one in the Embassy that knew what the weather was going to do. I would replace it, but the wife still thinks I am going to be able to fix the one she gave me. That is why I don't let her buy me much tech! It had the compass and altimeter too. My T-Touch does the same stuff but not as well.

 
I only wear a watch on special ocassions. I don't wear one on normal days because it gets in the way when i'm typing etc.
 
Wore my watch daily for ~8 years (same battery!). Then I couldn't find it the day of my highschool grad. Havn't worn a watch since. 🙁 (I did find it though)
