What you prefer? Analog or digital watches? Why?

Ah, I always get the two mixed up. Analog is where the hand moves around correct? Those are nice, and I do like the way some of them look (their designs) but I also enjoy digital. I think that digital is best in the bedroom where one needs to see the time to make sure they won't be late for work. In an analog (where the hand moves around, correct?) you have to wait a moment to figure out the time sometimes, wherein a digital it's right there for you!

I was reading a book not too long ago that featured a digital clock that told the time and weather! It was nice, and it also showcased it on the ceiling so as to open one's eyes and automatically know the time... you could do this and be able to go back to sleep without any troubles, Am I Right? Atleast I know when I roll over to see the time I don't go back to sleep so fast afterwards!

I like analog watches, they just look cooler, because you see that process how time is counted - that little thing moves inside here (I don't know, what is that thing called like LOL:D). Some analog watches also have different chronographs, so they look even cooler.

I never knew there was such a thing as an analog watch. I would assume digital or ye old fashioned with gears that need to be wound daily or battery opperated.

I don't wear one much as I don't need to here at home. I did buy a pretty one for work but my kids took off with it and I cannot find it. But my terminal has the time so it's not a big deal that I don't wear one at work.

Hi Phillip,

I think I probably prefer digital watches overall because I can do different things with them. The last one I owned for example played music for me as well as allowing me to have times set to both British Summer Time and Greenwich Mean time so I didn't have to worry about changing it when the clocks changed. Since that broke though I have replaced it with an analogue watch and since I am older now I think that it makes me seem more sophisticated than the digital watch would have done, and so I think for that I prefer analogue (even if I would like one that would play music for me and keep two different times lol!)

All the best,

Dranz

I like analog watch.I like the ticking of the watch as it makes me feel that the watch is alive.When I was young I used to be a great an of digital watches.I used to get surprised about the display as it seems to be a small tv screen.Also I used to like them for there stopwatch and alarm features.Now I prefer analog watch because of its different stylish models and a variety of different makes are available in the market.

I like my watch to have hands and a face; I think they look so much better and it's easier for me to tell the time at a glance. I've had digital watches but I just didn't like them as much as the old fashioned type!

I am Using a Analog Watch . I am Just Using it Because it is gifted by my father. Even Digital Watches are also good.

I prefer more the digital watches because of two reasons. One, I don't need to spend time to read the clock and I want a more precise time when I look at my watch. Second, I use the other feature like the timer in sports and it comes very handy. Another which might be considered is the price. Digital watches are less expensive than those original analog watches.

I would not mind either. However,my current watch is analogue. I have got used to analogue watches for a long time. Except for a short spate of time when I wore a digital watch just for the fancy of it, I am an analogue watch user.Just got used to it, I guess.

I do not like wearing watches, I find them really uncomfortable and do not understand how people can wear them!

In the past twenty or so years, I have only worn a watch for a couple of months while I was travelling overseas! This was only because my travelling friend gave me one of his old ones so that we could meet up again easily if we went to see separate things on our tavels!

These days my phone has a clock on it like you say, so I do not need to wear one ever again!
