Poll: Who WEARS wrist watches anymore?

[Vrach]

Um, right here. I don't see a single reason not to wear one. I find it useful (digging around my pocket for my phone just to see the time is not handy 99.99% of the time) and I like the looks of it as an accessory. And when I'm with someone who doesn't wear one, they constantly ask me for the time.

Me... I wear mine like Artyom...

Like this see:

Same. I wear mine on my right wrist, but on the inside. it makes you look more professional in front of people when they ask you what time it is, instead of you pulling out your phone.

Besides, I believe that everyone should know how to read an analog clock, and I know people at my college who dont because they're so used to their digital clcoks on their cell phone.

EDIT: besides, I wear a calculator watch lower on my arm, and that just impresses people like you'd never believe.

Because I just dated myself, I'll put an image of what one of them looks like:

EDIT2: Besides, you cant look awesome checking your phone like you do when you wear one of these:

Yeah, you can keep your phones, I'll choose to look badass.

 

[Sansha]

I do, because I can check the time in a tenth of a second rather than pull my phone out of my pocket.

I've tried to start wearing wrist watches on many occasions but they're just clunky, uncomfortable and pretty much useless when you can just glance at your phone.

 

[Marik Bentusi]

I do since I was never in need of a cell phone.

They're also damn sleek and stylish if you can find a nice, non-expensive model.

 

[KingGolem]

I wear a wristwatch. It's much more convenient to just glance at my wrist and get the time than to have to fish out my cellphone.

 

[SodaDew]

I always wear one. I wear a stainless steal digital Casio or my grandfathers gold plated Timex

 

[Comrade_Beric]

I was reminded of this watching the LRR about synchronizing time. Why would people even wear these things? They look and feel as outdated as a 'cell phone' the size of a toaster.

Conclusion: Old people are the only ones who wear wrist watches.

Edit: It ate my poll, oh well.

I actually tested this at the beginning of the semester! I walked into my friend's chemistry class and without telling them I wasn't their teacher I walked up to the front and asked everyone who wore a wrist watch (in the class of 50) to raise their hands. Aside from myself, one person raised his hand. Everyone uses cellphones today.

 

[Alrocsmash]

Professionals.

I have a $350 Swiss watch. Its a good looking sexy accessory.

 

[Rayne870]

I don't, and oddly I keep nothing to replace it. I don't have a cell phone. If I find one I really like I probably will wear it.

 

[C95J]

Sometimes I do, but mostly I just use my phone.

They just make my wrist feel uncomfortable...

 

[ThaBenMan]

I almost always have my watch on, I feel naked without it. It's like a piece of jewelry that a man can get away with wearing. And also, at work we're not supposed to have cell phones on us, so I wouldn't be able to check the time with that. And it's easier to just glance down at your wrist than dig your phone out of your pocket, anyway.

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

I know a lot of people who wear wrist watches, they find it convenient for checking the time. I rarely used to, it always made my wrist feel funny after having it on for a long time. I was never in the need of something to check the time on either, there is a clock in every room in my school and a clock on my phone.

I would much sooner use a pocket watch though.

 

[teh_spartan]

I wherebthem to look cool my watch has blue goth so I can get caller I'd while my phone is silent the other is binary

Sorry About the dealt spellingvand stuff at the gym on a tredmillon my iPad

 

[Fayathon]

I wear one all the time, it's faster for me to check than pulling out my cell phone, and I don't have to worry about it getting soaked, it's good to 100 meters.

 

[SD-Fiend]

I've been using the same one I got from burger king years ago

 

[The Afrodactyl]

I wear a wristwatch. I only ever check the time on my phone if I'm running late or waiting for someone and want to ensure that my watch isn't running slow/fast.

 

[Kaymish]

i wear a mens one mine is made out of titanium and tungsten carbide and its water proof to 50 ATM and is as accurate as the swiss can make them sometimes i look at it for the time but mostly it just looks good

 

[josemlopes]

Wrist watches are way more pratical then cellphones, just raise your arm and there it is. I dont need to take it out of my pocket, unlock it and then check the time.

And some watches are cool to have.
This one looks that it was taken from Crysis 2

 

[bad rider]

I used to wear my cheap crappy one all the time, up until a month or two ago when the battery died, leaving me with the laborious task of either replacing said watch or the watches battery.

I'm proud to admit I've accomplished neither.
