Do you wear a watch?

When I was younger I always wore a watch and always needed to know what time it is. Nowadays the only time I wear a watch is if it goes with my outfit. More of a fashion piece than a time piece. I think the only time the time really matters is when I go to work and that I am on time. Other than that I really don't care about the time? Do you wear a watch and does the time really matter? Does anyone really know what time it is?

Hi. Not now. I always used to wear a tight watch on my wrist about couple of years back but now the do it all "cell phones" have taken the pace of the watch. Whenever I want to know the time my hand goes in my pocket and come out with the cell. By the way, the only time we want to have a look at the time is when the teacher is going on and on with the class and we don't have anything nice to talk about on the back benches.

I can remember the days of high school when I would watch the minutes tick by on the clock on the wall. It was painful! I sometimes check the time on my cell too. It seems to me that watches are becoming old fashioned.

I where a watch every day when im at work. I where one because Im really bored that I just look at my watch most of the time because im so bored lol. But I dont wear one at home or on the weekends only at work and school. But its funny because I got a big tan wear my watch is and you can easily tell that I wear a watch because its pretty white lol.

It is strange to see something like a watch slowly get phased out...

I don't wear a watch. My cell phone is my only watch. And it is my only alarm clock too. I don't like to wear yewellery even, so wearing watch is not for me. As I was yunger I used to not care about the time. Now I have less free time, so I check the time more often. Mostly when I'm waiting to end of my day job;)

I think people that wear jewelry are probably more likely to wear watches.

I've been wearing watch since young. It's more on convenient sake for wearing the watch. But when I'm at home, I hardly wear my watch because I can refer to time from my computer or mobile phone.

It is more convenient but I always forget to put mine on.

Ahh...Those days are history now buddy...your case is similar to me...No watch with me and therefore I have to keep asking others for telling me the time. But when I am in front of my PC,it just says it all...cause I have a wallpaper built-in clock on my desktop all the time. :)

It seems the time is everywhere, microwaves, stoves, cells, computers just to name a few that alas I think watches are becoming old school. Having said all that sometimes I still can't find the time when I need it.

I have to wear a watch, because I do one hour long sessions with people, and if I run overtime with one, I will be late for the next session.

That is a good reason to wear one.

I could go wthout my shoes before I could ever be without my watch. Many times after a bath before I have time to put my watch back on I'm looking at my wrist already. It would be interesting to know how many times in a day I look at my watch. Take care my friend.

I don't wear a watch much anymore but sometimes I still look at my wrist to check the time. It is always half past a freckle!

When I was younger I wore a watch most of the time. Unfortunately, my skin doesn't like some of the metal watch backs and I tend to break out in a very itchy rash. Luckily most of the places I've worked have had a clock on the wall, and as long as I have my glasses on I can see it. The cell phone clock is pretty convenient too. :)

I do and I dont. I hate wearing a watch when I am washing the dishes and taking a bath so I take it off and forget to put it on. I have my mobile with me all the time so its not like I need a watch but my husband insisted to buy me one for my b'day this year and he got a $380 one (I was going to kill him for that). And now he is always saying where is your watch I didnt pay that much money for it to sit in the bathroom WELL I DIDNT ASK FOR ONE DID I.

I can relate to that alright, they buy you something then when you aren't using it enough you get the old guilt trip! For that much money the watch should be able to do dishes!

I dont undarstand the last bid sorry. Do you mean the watch was expencive and for that abount it can have the technology to wash dishes (if thats what you ment I am totaly with you on that) if you ment that I cant do the dishes with it on because it would stope working thats not the case as i just dont like wearing anything on my hands when I tuch water as then my skin gets infected.

HI! I never have worn a watch. They are very annoying on my wrist, and they are a bother to deal with. I look at my cell phone to check out the time, or my computer! It is currently 1:36... pm... yeah... it is almost time for me to get off!

Yes I am also wearing watch. Wsatch is important in my life. We can see most of ther peoples wearing the watches in their hand. Watch has two types analog and Digital. Now most of the peoples like to wear digital watches. Because it will give accurate time copare to analog. Now a days clock comes one of the part in bikes cars and mobile phones. Watches plays important role in our day to day life. Just think if you dont have watch is your home??? or may be in your hand????

I can not stand to go out without my watch. It is like some kind of lifeline to me. If I do not have it, I need to continually ask people what time it is. I hate to be too late or too early.

Yes, I do wear a watch. I dont feel comfortable without a watch. I always wanted to know what time is it.

Yes, I do always wear watch. Even when I'm a sleep. Cause I always like to know what time when I awake in the night or maybe in the morning. My mother told me that's silly, but I do still using it. Other reason is because I don't put clock on my wall so if I need to know about the time, I can immediatly look to my watch.It much more easy I guess.

I hate waking in the middle of the night and not knowing how much longer I have to sleep. I guess you have the solution to that.

I don't know how old are you now, but I still wear watch and always need to know what time is it - in second! I update my watch once a week so I always know exactly what time is it...

Time makes me feel under pressure, I'd rather not know what time it is.
