Who DOESN'T wear a watch?

[Prof Beard]

I'm frankly gobsmacked by the popularity of the "watch thread" on PH. I've no objection to people spending their hard earned cash on whatever they want, but the appeal of watches mystifies me a bit. I haven't worn a watch in years - if I want to know the time I look at my phone or a clock.

Anyone else here a "non-watch" person?

[gonzomo]

Non watch wearing non mobile owning freak here.

[Mrs Trackside]

I never wear one at weekends or on holiday, and often forget it during the week too.

[dick dastardly]

Never wear one. They unbalance me by making one arm feel heavier than the other.

[percy]

Not worn a watch for over 20 years now. I did use a stopwatch when I used to compete in windsurf races, so I could time the start properly, but once off the water, the watch went in the bag with the fins etc.

they completly upset my balance on the bike, plus if i dont have one i have an excuse for being late!!

[andymadmak]

Not me. Haven't worn won for years. I do like a nice watch, just never wear them!

Another non watch wearer

Me too - stopped wearing a few years ago when I realised that:


- at work, computers can keep telling you when your next meeting is
- outside work I have no wish to clock watch my life away
- gizmos like your 'phone and your car keep telling you what the time is anyway....

I’ve never taken up wearing a watch, no doubt there are some nice ones out there that I would wear but I haven’t come across any that I would wear yet.

I dont wear any jewellery, it just irritates me, I fiddle with it all the time, I used to take my watch on an off all the time and swithc hands until it broke. I hae considered a fob watch but then mobiles came along and it all seemed pointless.

Watchfree for about 8 years now

[tombaron]

Used to be a non watch wearer but after i collected a bit of £££ over xmas....!!

[groucho]

Never wear a watch, never will. I don't even need a clock or watch, I can tell the time of day usually within 15 mins. Now we have mobiles though with their clock.

[ZR1cliff]

Dont do watches,i find they irritate my wrist.

[MilnerR]

I have a talent for smashing watches to pieces within hours of putting them on. I obviously have very finely tuned spatial awareness and the addition of a watch throws this cat like spatial awareness out of kelter causing me to smack it against door frames/banisters/fire extingusers etc etc, either that, or i'm really clumsy!

Go all Charlie Sheen circa 1990 and have a gold submariner on each wrist...

But if you don't wear a watch, how are the women going to know if you have a larger peni5 than everybody else.

Wow, that's one hell of a sexual perversion he had there.
