Do you prefer digital or analog watches?  

I like a digital watch, although I do not actually use a watch anymore, I usually go off the clocks in the shops I go in or failing that there is not one I use my mobile phone.

Hi there Wizard, good to see you again.

I own several watches, not one digital though. I find it much easier to read an analog watch, I can make out the hands on the watch face very easily whereas with a digital watch face it always seems hard to make out the figures. I do have a couple of digital clocks in the house but nothing beats the look of my favourite watch. Then again, I'm probably an antique too (hug)

I prefer digital than analog..
Even now or any time i prefer digital..

Definitely analog watch, I think I'm an 'oldie' too! Not sure about calling yourself an antique (not yet, any way!!!)

I have tried the LED ones, they are not bad but I prefer the 'face' of the analog ones, you can get so many different styles. I even used to have a watch in the shape of a guitar! I used to love having different ones for different occasions. Do you remember the Swatch watches that used to have different colours to go around the face, you had different straps too!

I use my mobile too nowadays, especially when I'm on the beach. My lovely watch would disappear too quickly and I would be heart broken, now the phone, you can always buy another one!

I don't wear a watch, I suppose I never really did.

I always felt like they were too confining, too scratchy on my wrist, too annoying to be strapped to time like that..

now i pretty much just use my cell phone for things and keeping track of time. it is easier for me that way :)

i think it is good if you wear a watch to use the analog ones - pretty soon we're all going to forget how to read regular clocks because we've become so dependent on the digital ones!

hi , since i had a cellphone i never wear watch coz..i fell irritated..

It would depend on what clothes I am wearing. If I'm on my jeans and shirt or any rugged attire, I like a digital watch but if I'm on dress or a formal attire I would definitely want an analog watch.

In the house, I still prefer analog clocks but I like my alarm clocks digital because it's easier to see and the ringing alarms are interesting.

Well since I retired I no longer wear a watch but I still have two. One for dress and one for casual wear. I too prefered the analog type. I guess it's all in what you get use to. So see there are at least two of us antiques around.LOL

I have to wear an analog watch. If I read a digital time I pretty much have to work out in my head what that looks like on a clock face. I don't think it's because we are "antiques", I think it is a matter of what we grew up with and adapting to change. It's like celsius and farenheit, inches and centimeters. Though I learned those in grade school I have adapted to celsius better than metric measures and weights. I still weigh myself in pounds; wouldn't have a clue what the metric conversion would be. Of course having all cars and road signs reading in kilometers, I've had to adapt to that and haven't had difficulty with it.

I think if we are forced to change (like with the speed limits) we can adapt, but when we still have options (analog vs. digital) we choose what we know best. There are more digital clocks around my house than analog (microwave, vehicle, stove, VCR, computer) and am becoming better at "knowing" the time when I see it in digital, I prefer to see it in analog. And, all numbers have to be on the watch (1,2,3,4,5,6...) and no roman numerals either. I don't want to have to study my watch to see what time it is. I should be able to tell with just a glance.

Yes, analog for me.
We have a clock in every room and except for the bedroom (which are digital alarm clocks) all of our clocks are analog. I think if you stop using analog altogether, as you become older you may forget how and they are also nice if you have children at home so they will know how to use analog clocks/watches, also.
Both of my children use analog watches also, their preference not mine.
Also, the clock should not tick! That is why we have digital electric in the bedrooms!
