AARRRGGHH!!!! My Watch Just Bit The Dust!!

after killing about 5 watches in short succession, I decided I wasn't meant to own one - I don't miss it now, but when I was first without, I was always trying to look at the darn thing!

I'm sorry to hear about your watch problem but afraid I can't relate. I haven't worn a watch in probably 20 or more years. Drives me crazy not to have a clock in sight but can't stand to wear a watch - always catching on something or just annoyes me having something on my wrist, feel like I have a handcuff on or something - is that weird or what:(

I love watches! I have about 12 right now with dead batteries... thing is... the batteries are about $10.. I can buy a new one for that at Kohls or Target and it'll work for a long time! But at the same time, I have some really nice ones and need to spend the $10 and get the bats and start wearing them..

I like the large face, regular numbers and black hands... I want to look at my wrist.. see the time and then move on in life.. instead of looking at a digital and trying to do the math as to how much time I have left or have used or squint at the tiny face/numbers or the worst...a watch with no numbers and you just have to take the best guess as to which number the hands are on or pointing to or nearest!

i actually can't wear them.something about my body chemistry messes them up.
they start losing time,then stop.so if i have one,it goes in my pocket instead.
but yes,i need one for the bus.

i usually get digital ones,but i do have a nice old style one.

Oh no! And good watches are usually often hard to replace. I have noticed that now I need the big numbers too, and a solid background preferably white.
I actually don't wear a watch at all - allergic to the metal really badly -. Neither do I use my cell to see what time it is. I might glance at a clock in a store in passing, but so far I do really good without a watch:):)
Still I know what you are feeling. I still tried to use a watch some time after I got my allergy, and it was very hard to find bracelets that didn't have any metal in them - even just the little pin. So every time I found one I wanted it go last forever:)

Not me! I used to be that way, but several years ago I stopped wearing a watch. I have 2 that I really like a lot but I have some kind of cyst or something on my left wrist that was getting irritated, and I thought why do I need to have a watch on all the time, so I just stopped wearing it. I have a cute one with a pop up cover and the face has an Anne Geddes picture of a little baby dressed as a bee on it. The other watch I have my sister made for me. It has a beaded band and the first time I wore it, it fell off my wrist at a restaurant, so she changed the clasp on it. It is a bit too tight so I haven't worn it at all!!

Hey there danishcanadian! Don't feel so sad, I'm sure you'll find a suited watch for you, maybe not better than the one you lost, but hey better than no watch at all right?... I never get out of the house without my wrist watch, whenever I do I just feel like there's something missing.

If you Are Particular about reaching the Place On Time You Will Surely Need A Working Watch .. LoL .. I Do Have A Habit of Just Flipping My Hand Across Tol have a Look At the Watch every Now And Then .. It is Good To Have it right Away .. Go Get A New One For Yourself Quickly ..

Man, it must really suck to not have a working watch. I used to have a watch that I wore all the time. But unfortunately the mechanism inside it completely broke down. So I just use my cell phone to tell the time for me now.

This reminds me when i bought that second hand old old cellphone to a store owned by a Muslim guy..no offense but am not generalizing every one, just a more few scums out there. here's the story, i heard rumors in my country doing good business to customers but very very bad customer service and that also includes indirect fraud. i bought that phone for 10$,he said if there's a problem, he promised he'll replaced it free..but when there was no Signal, i went back, he said he'll trade it for another 12$..what the hell?! i never went back and a family friend went pissed because he boils when ever he hears fraud or scam..but i don't wanna cause trouble with a Muslim, most of them are violent and vengeful here.SO, i never went back and promised never to buy from local Phone store when they sell "stolen" or poor fixed phones. .
