I still wear wristwatch, it is compulsary and I need it for my clinical practice. Like, counting the drops of IV fluid, or counting beats and breaths per minute (using a watch with a second hand) of the patient. A wristwatch is a vital accessory for me.

I haven't worn one in like 7 years now - When we moved to Samoa it was too humid and hot to wear one so I just relied on my cell phone, computer and people around me. Now that we are in USA, I still use my cell phone, laptop and or pedometer to tell the time :)

it appears that a lot of us have stopped using wristwatches because, we have come to rely upon the cellphones and the computers around us. may be this is good because, it is an indication that cellphones have helped us cut on expenses on some things while, it has been helping us greatly with our communication needs.

No I don't, every time I nned to know time I look at my mobile, now I can't do without it, all my work, comunications and firends are in my mobile, even I use it as camera sometimes. Anyway, I have two wrist watch and I didn't wear them for about 2 years, some time when I have to be suited, I choose my glod-colored watch and wear it with my suit. but I don't look at it to know time.

Yeah scapula. Same here. Wristwatch is more of an accessory than a need.

I dont even have a wristwatch. They keep dying on me, plus my wrist is so small that I have to find a band that will fit me so I cant wear the nice dressy ones cause they fall off.

I am fond of collecting wristwatches but sometimes i tend to forget to wear one. But now that im in an office working, i often used a wristwatch because it is far more convenient to look up in my hand than to grab my cellphone.

I wear a wristwatch, but it is not compulsory for me. I like to collect different kind of wristwatch, so I have some of them. Though I don't wear a wristwatch very often, I do like them. You are right, now a days people use their mobile phone to check the time more than wristwatch.

NO, I don't wear one anymore. I am like you...I use my cell phone and my computer, plus my TV clock when I'm home. I like wristwatches, but they bother me more than anything anymore. :)

I wear it daily or whenever i have go out. Some people are not comfortable wearing it, but me, i am not comfortable if i'm not wearing it when i go out. I still look at my wristwatch for time, instead of reaching for my mobile phone inside my bag or on the table, it's easier for me to just twist my wrist.

I haven't worn a watch regularly in years. Although time is important and I hate being late, I find if a watch is readily available, I'm more apt to watch the clock then to listen to a boring meeting or do something constructive.

I do. Everyday. I feel naked without my wristwatch. More than an accessory, it's something that I just have to wear everyday. I've got two, one's a Swiss watch which I wear quite infrequently, and the other one's practically tied to my wrist daily.

as much as possible, i do not wear any wristwatch at all. i find it bulky and i just cannot be comfortable wearing it. i only wear one when it is deemed necessary. if ever i cannot rely on my cellphone for the time, i'd rather carry with me a pocket watch.

To be honest, I wear one daily; I have to have one on my wrist no matter what or I'll be looking at the clock periodically.

Even if I have a cellphone to rely on the time, I still wear a wristwatch. Maybe I am just so attached with it. My wristwatches are also stylish so they just not stand as a thing to give time but also style he he..
