Hello people, I hope you are doing good.
I can remember long long time ago I loved to wear a wrist watch. Truly I was a good time keeper and I can recall that I was made the school time keeper. Taking account into this I was responsible for the bell ringing and directed the school programme of activities when I was in grade six.
However I don't see such watches anymore, Most people no longer use them. Probably due to the emergency of technology which has brought in mobile phones, gears and other gadgets that displays time in a more digital manner. I even don't own one neither do I use a wrist watch any longer.
What about you? Do you still wear a wrist watch?
Good time.

@Treborika it seems my thermostat has been broken for a long time, I wasn't even close to menopause then.
Oh, back in the 1990s my mom went to Kenya to see the wild animals. I have a photo she had blown up to poster size of a giraffe... I'm a bit odd about giraffes... maybe more than a bit...

I usually do, I need to change the battery to mine. Yesterday I was outside and I had to check the time and I really missed my wrist watch. I had to open my hand bag, dig inside to find my phone, open my phone and find a shaded area to arrive to read the screen... and some people say that it's so practical! NOT AT ALL.

So far so good. A wrist watch is better than the time on your phone.

In the past, watches were indeed everyone's dream to look dignified. But nowadays, watches are only made for accessories.

When I leave the house, I usually wear my Apple watch. Back in the day, I wore an old fashioned type of watch for years, but not anymore.

I don't like to wear a watch. I've never brought a watch. I always watch the time on my mobile phone.

I still have a few watches, but I seldom wear them. I tell time with my phone.

@Treborika I used to when I was younger and before I had a phone. I do have this silver watch that I love and it looks nice with other jewellery. But I only wear that sometimes and it's more for show to match my bracelets etc.
