Don't buy this watch!

It's already in a band and won't have much time for you!

Also, what is the meaning of the "aluminum oxide conductivity" link?

RobertW, who wears watches? Well, I do, I really like watches, analog preferably. It's one thing I can point to as a generic heritage from my father, although he also had a house full of clocks. I only got a touch of that one. And... my friend who's still teaching told me recently that a lot of boys are wearing watches now as a sort of fashion accessory. Not sure if they're telling time with them though, I had students who had trouble with the analog clocks in my classroom.

I wore a watch from single digit years until maybe 5 years ago. Seemed redundant having a phone in my pocket. I STILL occasionally look at my wrist!!

ive had watches...cheap ones, good ones, hated them all. one i really hated was the stainless steel Sieko with steel plate bracelet.
The problem... my wrists are very skinny and watches just dangled.

Smart phones would have be really useful when I used to work on the clock..

RobertW, I've been wearing a watch all my life. Ever since my parents bought me my first Timex when I was in, I dunno, probably grade 3 or 4? I actually feel naked without one when I go out. It's still the #1 way I tell time. Like you, I don't like metal wrist bands, more because they irritate my eczema. So I've always had either some sort of material, soft plastic, or, for the most part, leather.

I don't mind either digital or analog, as long as there's a date on it. For some reason, all my life, even to this day, I've always been in situations on almost a daily basis where someone is asking me, "what day is it today?" (meaning the number, not day of the week). With my swiss cheese memory, half the time I can't remember and I'm always glancing at my watch for the answer.

A watch is also the only piece of "jewelry" that I wear, again, cuz my skin doesn't like gold or silver touching it for long periods of time.

Watches must still be very popular cuz I've never had a problem finding one when I need to buy a new one.

I never know what day of the week I is...I have to find the newspaper to check..or look on my main computer screen. The HUD is about 2" high.

The last time I wore a watch is hard to remember, but I'm sure its back in 70s or 80's. That's about when I no longer knew where the time went.

Not the original, but first version I heard.

I used to be exactly the same! I think I still have my first little Timex. It's probably 50 years old!!

My watches always had to have analog AND digital. I liked the dial, but I also liked the digital for the date and the stopwatch (that I never used).

Used to have those expanding metal bands when they were fashionable. But they ripped out my hair and slashed people if I got to close. Then I changed to fabric bands. It got to the point it cost more to replace the band every couple of years than the whole watch originally cost!!

Then one day I took it off and never looked back. Although I still look at my wrist.

RobertW , I think a big part of the reason I still wear a watch is cuz of work too. I'm always needing to know the time within minutes. Especially when I was driving a bus and still now driving a delivery truck.

Maybe one day, if I can actually retire (and that's a BIG "if")
I'll be able to put the watch away.
