No. I agree that's more convenient than a smartphone but I really don't like having something around my wrist. So I have pocket watches instead -.-

My thread consumed Saiyan Lusitano's thread to absorb its vital essence I merged the threads so we wouldn't have (so many) duplicates. Edited the first post to add his first post, for clarity.

Since I wrote here last, my Swatch has kicked the bucket, closed the curtains and joined the choir invisible, it is no more, dead as a dodo, it has ticked its last, the timepiece is at peace. So now I have some cheapo Casio thing, not nearly as elegant but it's light, waterproof and it runs.

I hate wearing watches!
They make you sweaty and moving them just noms the hair from your hand.
Wore it for a while but didn't find it as convenient as having a phone in your pants to check for time.
I'm open for other accessories thou but watches got a no from me.

I wear a watch mostly when going to places, school, etc. all for the convenience of knowing the time. I don't usually like to bring devices so yeah. I still have yet to get used to wearing watches on very hot days though >.<

I don't wear a watch. First of all, digital watches look absolutely horrible, and a good-looking analog watch costs a lot of money. So that's one issue with watches.

Second of all, for anyone who carries a phone around (and not even necessarily a smartphone) it's kind of useless to have a sweaty watch on your wrist that looks tacky 99% of the time unless you are wearing a blazer and tie. Watches look gross with any kind of short sleeves or casual clothing. And to those who say it's rude to pull out your phone during a conversation: a) it's not like you have to fully divert your eyes and attention away from the conversation just to glance at your pocket quickly and b) you probably don't have a pressing need to check the time in the middle of a conversation. It's rude to check a watch as well, implying boredom.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Mostly for big purchases, I want it in my hands before I pay. Like a tv, I trust picking it up myself, before I'd trust it being sent thru mail/delivery. (Broken screen, etc) But yea if I can order online, then pickup at store is ok, but not all places offer that.

    Thing is, if you break it driving back to your house, it's your fault. But if the delivery driver damages it, it's not your fault.
