    I stopped wearing watches when I bought my first cell phone.

    I'm seeing less and less people wear watches these days.

    Depends on what I'm wearing, but most of the time, nope.

    Only on rare occasions.

    I do find it weird that some people freak out and ask why i don't where one.

    1) I'm on my own time :cool:
    2) If i need to know, I can find out since we are surrounded by clocks (car, alarms, computers, wall clocks, phones)

    Pretty much stopped wearing a watch when I got a cell phone, too. I tend to be hard on anything I wear so any nice watches always got smashed and scratched up fast.

    Yes, I always wear a watch.

    I have 3 or 4 different watches for different occasions.

    One for everyday regular use, one for fancy occasions.

    One for running and one for the gym.

    Time is the most important thing in life.

    The only time I wear a watch is for fashion....to go with a suit or something.
    Other than that, like most, I just use my cell.
    In addition, like rings or bracelets, I can't help but have these things bother me. I'm to aware I'm wearing them I guess, don't like the feel.

    Watches have become less about function and more about style.. I'll wear one just too look more complete when I dress.. I've forgotten how to tell manual time long ago.

    My wife gave me a Tag Heuer for Father's Day that I do wear often. For workout and fishing, and cheap digital waterproof will do.

    Depends on the occasion. For everyday life... no, I've got a cellphone which can tell time.

    Unless I'm in the shower or at the gym, I'm wearing my watch. It's still more convenient to look at your wrist than it is to pull your phone out of your pocket.

    A bit less nerdy, too. lol. I think I'll always wear a watch. Especially if you're wearing nice clothes - the watch completes the look.
