Watches seem to be coming less and less popular amongst young people

I know a lot of people here aren't "young" as such, but especially as it's a geek community I want to ask the question - do you still or ever wear a watch/timepiece?

I used to wear watches but I never do any more, I find it handier just to check my mobile phone when I want the time. watch watch2

Why Do I need to?

I always have my phone on me. We have clocks at school. My Desktop has a clock on it.

I see no need for a watch as I have my phone on me or I'm on a computer which displays the time.

alt text | I've been wearing watches for many years. The BREITLING COLT is my current watch.

Ooh. Nice watch! I've always wanted a Breitling but the price is almost in Rolex territory. Casio watches suit me fine though.

For those who insist on using their iPhone as a wristwatch ...

as THE JOKER said after he made the pencil disappear --- {thwump} "TADA!"

I used to wear one but I stopped for some reason I can't explain.

I do. It is a binary watch.

I always wear a watch. It's usually either my Citizen Skyhawk AT, or my Citizen Promaster diving watch. Sometimes I'll grab one of the others, though.

I do, but its more to completing the 'look' than as a time indicator
