Do you wear a watch?

[Katcracker]

Even though I often have a cell phone, blackberry, or some other computer gadget to let me know the time, if I need to know what tiem it is I still look to my wrist first. So I still wear one be it an expensive hard to read evening one, an everyday one, a special water one, or a sports one. However, I find it really difficult to sleep with a watch on, but that's really it.

I haven't owned a watch since '90, IIRC. I carry a Nextel at work, so if there's a need to document something I get the time off of it. Otherwise I'll look at a clock if I need to know the time.

My watch is my main running stopwatch and I prefer to check it for the time than my cellphone.

No, I'm allergic to them. Plastic or metal, I get a rash from them.

I have an Omega Seamaster. I wear it all the time except while sleeping. I also obviously have it insured.

Might you be allergic to nickel? One of my brothers is allergic to nickel and can't wear any watches because of the metal backing. Those with a plastic backing usually have metal screws on the edges and are enough to cause his arm to rash after several days.

I've worn one since I was maybe 7.

Me, too - and always some variant of Armitron or Casio calculator watch. My present watch is a Databank 150, which I actually use ALL of the features on.

I'm the opposite. I feel naked without my watch. If I don't wear my watch, I'm either late or early, and I forget the date.

My watch is a Timex Expedition. I like the three separate alarms configurable for weekday, weekend, and everyday.

BTW, my watch is rarely wrong, usually off a few seconds (unlike my computer which loses time like no tomorrow).

Me too. No one notices when I streak.

I found out today my watch is off by like 15 minutes! I thought it was off by 5 in the other direction!

I wouldn't know what to do without mine.
