Howdy again, folks! Recently I've posted a discussion about wrist watches and was happy to get lots of responses to it. Unfortunately I haven't been able to answer to all of them yet, but I'll surely take care of it. I would like to thank you for answering!
Anyway, I decided to bring that topic further, I would like to know, what type of clock/watch do you prefer to use?
I personally like analog clocks more, because I am so used to them. But sometimes, when I need to know a precise time, I check my phones digital clock, so I know exactly, how late it is at the moment.
What about you?:)

I prefer a digital clock. I can see the numbers better and faster. It is more easier for me to tell the time when I need it. Especially when I would just wake up out of a deep sleep. I need to know the time and seeing the big, and bold numbers gives me a much accurate time frame.

I agree, you can easily read the time from digital watch. When using analog watch, it takes a little bit time to calculate the actual time because of these pointers. It's also easy to check the digital watch in the dark, because the numbers are usually glowing, giving you a clear view in the night. Thanks for responding!:)

I think I would choose a digital watch for doing sports too. I remember I like these ones when I was a kid, they had a light function too, so it was cool to check them in the dark. Now I'm wearing analog watch, because I'm more used to it.

I prefer the analog clocks because they look so lovely. I have a watch that is analog with cats on it. I have a wall clock my lounge that is a silver color and it shows the numbers in large black print. In my kitchen my cooker has a digital clock on it. I have a nice looking black iron analog clock in my bedroom. I don't like digital clocks that have any flashing to them. My mom has a digital alarm clock which flashes.

Wow, it looks like you have quite many clocks at home. I like analog clocks too. Perhaps the biggest advantage of digital ones is that they don't make any sound. I used to have a big wall clock which was ticking really loud, so we had to remove it from the room we slept in. Thanks for answering!:)

hi! I prefer the Anolog clocks, because they look cooler to me, but i mean the old fashion ones, because I have two from them at home, but the digital ones are more convenient at night,when we want to see what time it is. but they have one fault- if there is no electricity, there we be no time, and if there will be no time, we can be late for work/school/date! :)))

Ah, I know what you mean! Analog clocks may look really cool, I like those chronograph wrist watches. They look awesome and have many useful functions. I also agree, that digital clock with glowing display offers a really good picture in the dark, but yes, if it's powered from the cord, it may be useless if you're having power shortage. Thanks for responding!:)
