I'm Going Crazy Without My Watch!!! email this discussion to a friend?

My watch died yesterday afternoon, and last night I ordered a new one. In the meantime, while i'm waiting for my new one to arrive, I am constantly looking at my wrist, where my watch used to be, wondering what time it is. I've worn a watch for 20 years, and have never been without one before.

Any other watch-wearers do this, when for some reason you can't wear a watch for the day, constantly wondering where it has gone, even when you conciously know it's not there?

Hello, danish. Yeah...it's kind of overwhelming, just like some people get access to internet everyday and all of the suddent, they can't use internet.
I have watch for a long time, but I always forget to wear it cuz I also have a mobile phone. My friends said, we've already have mobile, why you still need watch? I said I just like wearing a watch.
And I think this kind of feeling is like I've already wear a lense contact but still keep on finding my glasses.

For that I got a bunch of them.
Once the band of my watch broke.

I really felt strange when I looked at my right hand and nothing was there.

But else I always wear a watch.

I don't wear a watch. I just constantly ask my husband for the time LOL I'm sure that it would be awful to not have something you are use to.

I usually wear mine as an accessory because my car has a clock in it, the bank tells me what time it is and everywhere I go there is a clock with a different time on it. I did go without a watch while I was camping and I wondered what time it was a few times but when my stomach growled I knew it was time to eat.

LOL I am just visualizing you trying to see what time it is, looking at your wrist and nothing is there.
I guess that after developing my allergy I learned no to worry about time too much. Actually already before it I had a pretty laid back sense of time.
Don't get me wrong. I am responsible and if it's a matter of an appointment or work I am on time. But once I am home during the holidays I immediately get into "no time" mode. I have no idea of what time it is most of the time, and I like it. I feel that I should control what I do and when, not the clock/watch.
Of course when I return to school I am back to needing to know, at least when it's time to start.But that's work, and working in a school what I have more is clocks on the walls LOL
I've noticed that there are somethings - like meals, time hubby comes from work, waking up, etc that are automatic, I tend to know when it's time without having the need to look at what time it is.
But other than that I feel pretty good and quite free not knowing the exact time.
So, just relax.... enjoy time and soon you'll have your new watch:)

I've done that before and I hate when it happens! Looking at my arm and someone seeing me do it is kind of an odd but funny feeling. I did the same things when I went from glasses to contact lenses....kept trying to push up my glasses that weren't there! And of course, everyone that seen me do it would start laughing.

I don't wear a watch anymore, but used to when I was in my teens. It probably ended sometime in my 20's, though heck if I can remember! It's not like I keep tabs on this sort of thing! LOL Even though it's been a few years since I've worn one I still catch myself looking at my wrist every now and again for one, though it is rare. Talk about old habits dying hard! lol

I have to ask, why didn't you just buy a battery for your old watch? Unless it died some unfortunate death making it beyond repairable? confused

It true, even I do the same. I constantly used my watch bcoz I have a time table to follow expecially at work. If I didn't wear my watch there was a time I look at wrist to look at the time but suddently I realiz that it was not there. I wonder where I left it or do I drop my watch. But I always i set my timer in my cellphone so even I left my watch at home I still have one in pocket.

I have forgotten my watch at home twice.I was lost. I couldn't function. I got to work and had to use the clocks. The problem,each had a different time.I had to guess when the buses were coming.It was a mess.


myLot reputation of 39/100. aurerm (144)  5 months ago

For me its like part of the morning schedule to put on a watch on my right hand.
So I would not leave with an empty wrist.

hi Danishcanadian I know you have a great new watch by the time you read that post of mine. I am one of these few people who hate watches and will go crazy with a watch and not without a watch.
But I see it with my husband. When his watch was out of order and had to be repaired he always wanted to check the time and couldnt...... lol.
