I feel naked if I'm not wearing my watch.
Or carrying a pocket knife.
But you're right, more and more people I see rely on their phone for the time.
I remember reading a news article somewhere about how less people seem to be wearing watches these days because they are using their mobile phones to get the current time.
It kind of hit home because i stopped wearing a watch a couple of years ago when i realized everytime i wanted to know what time it was, I'd just look at my phone.
Have you ever worn a watch?
Have you stopped?
Or do you still wear one?

I'm wearing one right now. It's still easier than digging through my pockets to get my phone out.
I'm the same way with both of those items.
Agreed and when I'm busy at work I don't have time to get my phone out. Plus it's a habit and it's a Kings' watch
Of course. Why would I buy a $10,000 Rolex if I wasn't going to wear it?
I don't have a cell, so I wear a watch when I have appointments to keep.
I have three things on me at all times: a watch, a cell phone and my pistol. I have a CHL, so I just keep my pistol in a belly band.
I won a watch for empolyee of the month!
My boss doesnt let me wear it on the clock though.
I haven't worn a watch in probably 15 years.
I haven't worn a watching in about 10 years. Between my two cell phones, I can always find one of them to get the current time.
Beezie, what do you carry?
It depends what I'm doing as to how often I refer to my watch. There are so many ways to see the TOD now with the laptop, smartphone, TV, microwave oven...even projector clock radios projecting time on the wall or ceiling. Yes, I use them all but when I'm outside and doing stuff, the good old watch is still the best. Your hands can be dirty, wet, busy...whatever, but it's easy to just glance at the watch without slowing up. Most people probably aren't aware of how often they look at the time each day but I'm sure it's a lot more than realized.
yes, but i take it off when i'm typing.
Yes.
I've never worn a watch, even before everybody had cell phones. just never felt comfortable. I've gotten a few watches as gifts but even then i'd just wear it for a week and never again.
Yes..........I wear one......actually have several that I switch up. Its an accessorie and completes the look.
I love watches. I have several that I switch from time to time no pun intended. Anyways, I feel naked if I don't have a watch on.
This is what I carry right now:

I always end up losing my watches.
I haven't worn a watch regularly in about 5 years, mostly because the one I had stopped working and I didn't buy another.
But between computers having the time, cell phones, clocks on radios in cars, clocks on the microwave and on DVR/DVD/VCR players....I don't need a watch.
Exactly! me too. Once my watch broke I stopped wearing them... I kinda miss that watch but I really don't need one. And I don't want a watch tan line.
I love watches, but haven't worn one in years. My favorite watch broke, I never got around to replacing it, and now I'm just accustomed to going without.
I had finally gotten up the nerve to buy this very expensive gold and diamond watch I had wanted forever ... and I had it probably 3 months and it disappeared.
Now I have a little gold & silver Seiko with a charm bracelet-type band that I wear, if I remember to put it on.
Watches that stop working bother the crap out of me, which is why I rarely wear them.
It made sense to wear one over the summer while running around with kids and stuff. The schedule was tight and it was hard to pull out a phone, especially if I didn't have pockets. I even bought a good watch before I started working...it broke within a week because I got it a tad wet (it was water resistant).
