Watch and cell phone how essential?   

Until recently I have always worn a wristwatch however the battery died a few months back. Since then I have used the clock on my mobile phone to keep track of time. In this day and age I think a wristwatch, especially the more expensive ones, are more for show than for the purpose of keeping track of time.

Hi Arun, I have a braclet type watch that is analogue. There is no alarm on it. I seldom wear it though. I do have an emergency cell phone that I seldom use but if I need to know the time I will sometimes look at the time on the cell phone. I never use it for an alarm. I set a timer for the amount of time I want to sleep.

Hi arun, well let's see, first the concept of time is unimportant in Greece as we think of the day after tomorrow, but in order to be able to keep pace with this I wear an analogue watch on my left wrist, until the battery runs out. I use my mobile phone as the alarm clock to ensure I am up in the morning at some ridiculously early hour.

I really don`t wear a watch , but i would love do wear, not because i don`t have how to find out the time, but just like an accesory . For checking the time , date and alarm clock , i`m using my cellphone . I`m used to look at the phone and see the time . But i will use the watch too, when i`ll have one . I wanna buy a real good and elegant one , so if i`m wearing something sport, i can`t wear the watch too, so , the cellphone fits on both.

Hello Arun,
I use both. I use my watch most of time, which I wear on my left wrist. But I use my cell phone if I'm not wearing my watch...

I do wear a battery operated watch on my left arm since I'm right handed. I never leave home without it. Am one of those people who likes to know the time. My cell isn't used to check the time but remains on all the time. I might have to check into one of those solar, battery operated, Casio watches. Like that idea.

When I wore a watch wore on the right wrist but I am right handed but was eassy to see when driving as I could raise it up to see time easier than if I wore it on the left wrist .
Nope nit digital but smal battery on ewith hands.
digital one would smear on me when I sweated. Now I use my cell phone love it for when I go over a time zone it changes time for me no worries about doing that.

Hey arun! I still must wear a watch! I have always worn a watch
and I feel lost without one on my wrist! I am right handed and
I wear my watch on my left wrist! I prefer an analog watch for
some reason! I still like to look at the watch dial! I don't
have any particular reason I just happen to usually like the
way those watches look better than the digital ones! It is just
about fashion! I don't use my cell phone to look at the time
because my cell phone is usually in my handbag and not as
easily accessible! It is much easier to look at my watch on
my wrist then go digging into my handbag every time I need to
see the time!

I use a watch to check the time. I am a right hander and I wear it on my left wrist. Its a Casio digital watch and it has an alarm although I dont use that feature. My watch is my main time checking device. Its become a habbit now to wear a watch at all times when I go out, but once in a while I forget to wear it and thats when I use my phone to check the time. Its a bit inconvenient to check the time from a phone but many people do it. I use my phone for alarms/ reminders.

I mainly use my cell phone to send text messages to my husband and my daughter when they are away from home so we can keep in contact with one another. I use my cell phone as an alarm clock sometimes too. It is not essential though.
