Do you still wear a watch?
Jump to: Newest in thread
Belt and watch, couldn’t leave the house without either! I would feel naked. Don’t wear any kind of jewellery but don’t feel dressed properly without an appropriate belt shoes and watch to the outfit I’m wearing |

"with the time on all phones.Do people still bother with watches. I gave mine up with the original brick phones."
Need to get it repaired, sentimental value but probably won't get worn all the time. Mobile is a constant companion. |

"Got my Tiger Woods limited edition Tag Heur fixed recently. You don't touch the hair or the watch though. "
Same with me but my diamond tag watch needs a new battery so I’m wearing my retro Casio which I prefer anyway. Nobody touches the fringe!! Ha |

I've got a Samsung Smartwatch after not wearing one for years.
I broke my wrist a while ago & nothing felt quite right on it until now.
Find it very useful. |

Yes and i have different watches for different purposes. For example i have a professional diving watch for scuba diving, a dress watch for formal events, a rugged sporty outdoors watch etc.
With the new smart watches out, there will be more people who will start wearing watches i reckon. Much more convenient than a smartphone only. You dont need to charge a watch every night and some like automatics rely on your hand movement to charge |

"I have never worn a watch. Not a funny or interesting answer, but a factually correct one.

We had the sun dial in Plymouth. Never needed a watch. |

Occasionally
I have two work watches (although one needs repairing), 7-8 hand wounds and a similar number of automatics, a solar kinetic and about a dozen quartz for when i need a grab and go. I'll not get in to my collection of straps
My main problem is which one to wear a lot of the time, if i'm going out i'll spend longer choosing the watch than the clothing |

Always wear a watch
In the process of deciding which to go with this year as I’m planning a new one.
Current contenders are a Vacheron Constantin overseas or a Zenith defy el primero |

If I had a few hundred thousand spare, I’d get a H. Moser & Cie tourbillon minute repeater just for the pure trolling of the Apple Watch they’ve done with it

For me a watch is essential.
I work in a shop and as is typical with most retailers there are no clocks in the store - they want to keep the customers there spending as long as possible. We are not allowed to have our mobile phones on the shop floor so I wear a watch so I know when it's time to go home |

i think I’d go for a Roger Smith if I had that amount sloshing round in my wallet, just for the pure pleasure of going to discuss and order exactly what you want with the man who designs it- then receiving this unique thing of beauty that’s been specifically hand crafted only for you a year or two later (presuming you can get on the list) |

Always wear one , but didn't think I used it much until the strap broke , I took it to a shop and was told a new strap would be fitted and I was to call back in one hour ,,, I couldn't believe the number of times I like at my non existent watch during that hour |

Strangely, I have lots of watches but I've never bought one or even worn one. They're all either gifts, inheritances or presentation watches. The only one I have that has any emotional connection is a rolex oyster worn by my grandfather during WW2. |

"I have a £139 Sekonda West Ham Official Watch from the club shop "
So a £40 watch you paid way over the odds for cos it has a certain colour scheme?
You should take up full time collecting- that’s sort of stupidity is commonplace when you have the illness |

I sometimes wear a watch. It can greatly enhance your appearance. Also if my phone is in my pocket it is so much easier to just lift my wrist and have a look at my watch. |

I don't now. Haven't for a few years. Didn't miss it until we went to a Swingers club and handed our phones over at the door. Totally lost all concept of time and couldn't just look at a phone to check

"Yes of course. You can’t rely on finding a policeman to ask him the time anymore!"
i dont think policemen or policewomen ..(so police chairs probably)have watches ...they always ask "...and what time do you call this"? |

People gave up wearing pocket watches after WWI because wristwatches became so common and convenient. 100 years later, here we are pulling something out of our pocket every time we want to know the time. |

I didnt till I got a fitness tracker with notifications, and I loved it. It broke but will get a new one eventually.
I consider checking a phone while talking to people rude, I think checking a wristwatch can send a sign that you have other things to do, but essentially isnt as rude. |

Yes. Why would I want to :-
1. Pick up my phone or find it or take it from my bag.
2. Open the case.
3. click it on
4. look at the time
When with a watch I go.
glance down.
With a clock I go ...... glance up |

Quite a few say they feel naked without one. I feel liberated since mobile phones with the time on came along.
I do have a couple of gifted watches and every now and again I hear the alarm going off on it from inside a drawer.

Yes I wear a smart watch as we are not supposed to use our phones in work therefore I can monitor messages without actually getting my phone out.
I have always worn a watch cause I was a runner and would feel unbalanced without one on my wrist even now. |

hubby has several but for him easy to get as he's got an apartment in Switzerland and 16min drive to Rolex and others in Biel to the factory shops. Half price retail and more models, he wears one every day. |

Rarely, but today actually yes. My 1st Generation LG G Watch. Its not fancy but in smartwatches im struggling to see a good case to upgrade. Other than QI Wireless charging. The charging dock for this thing is horrid. |
