Do you dislike wearing a watch?

Post Reply New Topic

I do. I don't like how they feel on my wrist. I never wear one.

Same here. I also had a few fall off my wrist, including one that had been a gift from family and that got irreparably damaged in the landing. After losing that wristwatch, I switched to pocket watches and eventually to using my cell phone.

I like watches and feel naked without one.

I find them quite noticeable at first, but after a while I feel naked when I haven't got one on.

I find watches aesthetically pleasing and I've long been fascinated by their internal mechanisms. Despite this, I haven't owned one in close to a decade.

Not really. I have an mp3 player and phone that both have built-in clocks, so if I wear a watch, it's merely for show. But no, it doesn't bother me in the least.

I didn't used to like them, finding them too uncomfortable and preferring pocketwatches (hey, they're smart!). Now I have one I like wearing with an electronic test card pattern in the face. Saves me having to get my phone out every five minutes.

I always wear one because not knowing the time makes me anxious.

^ same here.

i never got into the habit. i don't like the way they feel on my wrist, and i haven't been able to keep them there long enough to possibly get acclimated to them.

I love the feeling of weight on my wrist, but hate the friction of the band. I have found canvas bands are much better about this than metal, leather or--ugh--plastic. I used to wear big hoops in my ears because I liked the weight on them, too.

Yes, I dislike having anything on my wrists.

I don't like the feeling of them. I didn't even wear one when I was working & not allowed to look at my phone on the clock when it wasn't break time. I kept a watch in my pocket instead of wearing it.

When I was in my teens I'd put on a watch and hardly ever take it off. Now I haven't worn a watch for so long I can't get used to the new one I got for Christmas and I keep it in my purse.

A lot of people are now using their phones to check the time. We're reverting back to the days of pocket watches.

Can't stand wristwatches and bracelets etc.

I LOVE watches! I have a pretty big collection (kinda like my purse collection). Great memories! I can still remember when I got certain ones - a couple of my Gucci's remind me of my trip to the Caribbean. One of my Coach watches was the very first watch sold in the Coach store at our mall during the time Coach first introduced watches to their collection. I have several Movados and now several Kate Spades to go with my purses. I have a couple of Joan Rivers' watches with one that had been advertised in Vogue. I just love watches! They are the first thing I take notice of if anyone is wearing one. You can tell a lot about a person by their watch. Oh! I also have a couple Swiss Army watches for work! (Forgot about those)

in which case...what can you say about someone who wears this?




i don't physically wear it myself, but i don't have the heart to give it away, as it was a gift for me.

maybe i can use it as a miniature wall clock...i love miniatures.

I have a Baphomet watch, purely for aesthetic but it's useful that I can tell the time lol. My wrists and hands are covered in jewellery. I once had to spend 30 mins de-metalling myself at the airport for the scanner.
