Title: Do you wear a watch?I
Post by: camellia0 on November 04, 2018, 04:09:10 pm
I do not just because I usually have my phone with me at all times.

Yes I wear my watch, and have my phone with me also.

I only wear one because it's required for work.  If it wasn't for that I would never wear one.

I wear one occasionally especially when I know I am going somewhere that I have to turn my phone off

I don't wear a watch because if I wear a watch my arm brakes out in a rash.  So if I need to see the time  I use my phone instead

I don't wear a watch anymore because phones now have a clock.

I wear a watch when I go out only. I find it faster to check than checking my phone, particularly when running or jogging for exercise. I never wear one in the house because prolonged use of a watch causes a skin rash on my arm.

I never wore a watch until my husband bought me a Fitbit a few years ago. I wear it most of the time, except on lazy days like yesterday.  :silly:

The rare times I do wear a watch it's moreso for fashion than time.

    I wear a watch since I was a kid.
    If I am not wearing one that day,
    a parking meter will show me
    the exact date and time.

I haven't worn a conventional wrist watch in about 15-20 years. I used to wear a watch that hooked to my belt loop, but the battery died a few years ago and I never replaced it. I have to take the darn thing to a jeweler or watchmaker to get the back open! I've been thinking recently about getting that done and start wearing it again. So I usually use my phone as my timepiece; but I do miss having the belt loop watch at times.


I've considered getting a fit bit, but I am so used to not having anything on my wrist that I am afraid I wouldn't like the fit bit. That (along with the price) is also the reason I have never considered something like an Apple Watch - even though it is amazing some of the things you can apparently do with one of those!

No, not anymore.  I just use the cell.

No, I just use my phone. Someone got me the Apple Watch as a gift but I ended up selling it. Just a huge waste of money, in my opinion.

No. I don’t see what the point really is in that.

I dont like wearing jewelry for these reasons....

You go to wash your hands and take off your watch,ring etc in a restaurant and forget it.
I hated wearing chains that pulled my chest hair.
35 yrs ago i broke my left metacarpal bone on my hand playing softball.My hand swelled up and my wedding band needed to be cut off.I never wore it again.

As a Registered Nurse I wore a watch with a second hand every day.  I stopped after I retired, however my hubby bought me a fit bit and I wear it all day!  Great weight loss motivator!

I rarely wear a watch as I also break out in a rash. But if I do it is only to church or some party where I want to dress up a little. But I never wear it at the Charity where I work as it is  easy to take off and I don't want to lose it. It was my mother-in-laws. The stones in it were cracked so my Aunt who was 91 at the time cabbed me  new stones called  Ellensburg blue and put themin. so it has double meaning to me.

I always wear a watch.  I'm constantly checking to see what time it is and I actually feel naked without it.

Post by: makeblessed on November 05, 2018, 03:32:23 pm
Yes, I wear a watch even though I have my phone with me, it is generally in my purse as oppose to in any clothe pockets; so easy to look at my watch.

I don't wear my watch everyday, but I do wear my watch when I leave the house.  I also have my phone with me at all times, but it is easier to look at my watch.

I have a few watches, but I haven't worn one in years.  No need to anymore.

Why would I do that?  haha  No I don't.  I have some friends that where them, but only as a fashion statement.  I don't have a fashion bone in my body.  I have never worn a watch in my life.

I don't wear one anymore. But now that I think about it, I kind of miss wearing one. They can be pretty stylish sometimes, too.

I haven't worn a watch in about 3 years . The main reason at the time I had had several  episodes of hives and wearing a watch made the hives much worse. Since then I tend to use my cell my phone to tell  the time. :pumpkin: :rose: :peace: :wave:

No, I do not wear a Watch. They get hung on my clothes and with Today's technology, you really just need your Cell Phone.

I wear a watch when I have to go to the store or doctor appointments. I try to keep store times to no more than an hour, less if it's a small order. As for doctors offices, I time them. If I spend more than 10 minutes in the waiting room, I speak up (rule is no more than 10 minute wiat time). Then there's the doc themselves.....seems like I wait 20 minutes most appointments in their exam room and am only in there 5 minutes. I'm not happy about that, either. Next time it happens, I will be speaking up about that, too, because I know they aren't with a patient.

I haven't ever been able to wear a watch.  They quit on me within a few days of wear.  It doesn't matter if it's a cheap one or an expensive one, they just stop working.

Yes, I wear a watch 9.5/10. It is a simple water-resistant sports watch from Casio. However, I am thinking seriously of purchasing a Fitbit, especially since I was bitten by the fitness bug a few years ago.

I haven't worn a watch in years. There's really no need, with the phone right there. I guess having to take your phone out to check the time is the new pocket-watch!

I have been using a fitbit for almost 2 years. I like it much better than a regular watch. As long as I remember to charge it every 5 days.

Sometimes I'll wear a pretty watch for special occasions to add a sophisticated touch. Most of the time, I just use my phone to keep an eye on the time though. It's an easy go-to to use.

I guess watches are going to follow the path of the traditional library book!  I do wear a watch when I go places, but rarely inside the house.  Wearing a watch is just too much of a habit to quit now!  However, when I need to see what time it is, I usually look at my phone, even when I have my watch on!

I wear one at work because we are not allowed to have our cell phones on us. Sometimes when I am getting dressed to go out, I may wear a watch too because I think it makes you look more put together.
