Do you wear a watch? If so is the primary reason to keep time or for other reasons? Like wearing rings and such. So?

I used to, but the battery died. I couldn't be bothered to replace it, and now I'm used to not having anything on my wrists.

I did use it to actually check the time though. It was analog too.

I wear my watch to keep time. If I wanted to wear it as an accessory like a bracelet... I'd rather wear a bracelet.

I do wear a watch most of the time to keep time, though I do like the way it looks too.

pretty much everything with a screen has a watch included on it nowadays so no. For the most part I pull out my cell phone.

Funny as it is... no. My father was a watchmaker and I rarely if ever do wear watches... simply because time is not something I like to live by. I do have a few... and they are nice... but I only wear them on special occasions.

Never been a fan of watches/accessories/jewelry. I went through an earring phase a few times in my life, then got over it. I don't even like tats (I like them on other people, just not on myself, but I'm open to changing my mind about this).

Like one of the posters above I feel naked without it. My wrist just feels too light. Had the same watch for the last 10 yrs now, was a b-day present when I was younger. It's analog.

I do use it to tell the time, easier to look at that than my phone. I also run it 5 minutes fast to make sure I never/rarely late.

Best thing about it? It's kinetic so no batteries needed!

I used a wrist watch for years, so I got a couple of those. Then stopped for years and some time ago I begun(or began??) wearing on again.

Yes, when I am outside of my home. The main and only reason is to keep time. I do not wear jewelry, not care for it. It's digital. I've had it for 3 years now.

Otherwise, I do not have a cell/smartphone, and even if I did, I am guessing I would still have a wrist watch, simply because I like the instant gratification of the thing.

I wear a watch for more than just telling time. Proceedures for the kind of work I do are time dependent and in many cases, a phone is not even allowed if not intristically safe (very expensive proposition and in some places, even flashlights are not allowed). Now, After work, I do wear a watch as an accessory and telling time.

Yeah I am quite used to wearing one, however it was kinda set back to zero after I damaged some the nerves in my left wrist.

Nope, I dislike things on my wrists usually.

Use my phone when I'm out and about and have a pocket-watch on my keychain I use while at work.

:lol: Glitchspot censors pocket watch if you don't put a space between the words. Strange.

ahaha

I don't wear one. Didn't like the feel of one on my wrist when I was little.
I'll use my phone to tell the time. If you hit that "back" button on it while it's locked, it brings up a screen with the time and date.
