Do you still wear a wristwatch?

Hmm... If that question never got answered, then I suspect it is Chacarron. I have a pretty nice watch in the draw, but its not the right size.

I was given this watch as a gift from my aunt on my birthday last August. I think it looks real nice, cost about £200. I was given it when I was eating at a restaurant that was on a holiday resort in Barbados, like 2 hours after we arrived.

 

Ah, good times.

I stopped wearing watches back in 8th grade when I got my cell phone. It may be bigger than a watch and it will take me a few more seconds to see time, but I'll still know what time it is.

 

I used to have this nice Lotus (left it at my mom's). My godfather gave it to me and I wore it all the time. Then I stopped wearing it for about 3 years. Two years ago I wore it to school and somebody slapped my wrist and the damn strap broke off at the dial and I was to lazy to get it fixed.

 

I'm thinking of picking up a Swatch with a fluorescent orange strap, soon.

If fact it's faster to tell the time by simply looking at your wrist instead of pulling out your phone and flipping it open.

I could tell by this that you're from US. Don't need your flag to tell me tounge.gif

 

No, I don't wear them but I see some people doing it. Mostly older people.

What's that mean? You guys don't have flip phones outside of the US?

 

Mine isn't a flip phone anyway... as I've said, it's a PDA style one. The Blackjack II, to be precise. I loves it inlove.gif

We have clam shell phones in Holland, quite common. I even own one. What are you on about? monocle.gif

I have 4 watches: A rather nice digital one which I got as a gift and have never worn.

A nasty old Siak quartz which kept breaking.

A huge chunky Fake Rolex which ran out of power and was never recharged.

A £130 Accurist chronograph which looks very smart. I wear this every day.

 

I want THIS:

Got £140000 laying around spare? lol.gif My only concession to personal Bling is a watch. No rings, chains etc.

I will continue to expand my collection. cool.gif

A $10 cheapo I bought in basic training. Still works great.

The Official Xbox Magazine Said That Your Cell Phone Will Be Used For Pretty Much Everything, Not Only Telling The Time But Taking Photos, Listening To Music Etc.

We're talking about real life here buddy.

I use my watch on a regular basis; I'd feel naked without it. Not only is it my main timepiece, but I use the stopwatch on it regularly. It's a cheap watch, but it's handy. Don't have to charge it and I always know where it is. tounge.gif

I've acquired a new wristwatch. My grandfather was a jeweller and yesterday I was going through his old stuff and found very nice things. A Lord Elgin wristwatch with 8 gold pieces and three diamonds on the face, with a stretchable stainless steel frame. It also has a separate hand below the hour and minute hands for seconds. I think my grandfather made it himself or either had it made for him because it has his name engraved on the reverse.

 

I'd post a picture but my camera's flash won't allow a clear view.

I've got a nice, basic gold Seiko that I wear every day. Watches are so much cooler then checking your phone. My arm feels naked without a watch.

My new watch feels so comfortable, unlike any other before it. It fits me perfectly, same size wrist as my grandfather. Previous watched have felt uncomfortable to wear, whereas this watch feels uncomfortable to not wear, as if it was meant for me. tounge.gif

 

Also, I forgot to mention that it's a wind-up, not battery operated, which isn't surprising as it would be rather old.

I used to wear a wristwatch up until the high school, then I started using my cellphone to measure time.

 

But it's pretty uncomfortable and unwanted in some places. So I'm gonna buy a new watch quite soon.

Sometimes I'd like to wear one, but as with all kind of wristbands and stuff I get tired of them really fast.
