I mean the wristwatches, watchrings, pocket watches, watch pendents and the like? I have a few in my jewel case and I wear my nurse's pin-up one occasionally. On my keychain is an Avon locket watch I generally use if my cell phone is not easily available. What do you own?

My grandpa was a watchmaker and you would think that i would own a watch just out of nastalgia or something, but i do not, but i own a cell phone, and that has a clock so i guess that counts, right?

i've stopped using wristwatches soon after i graduated from college. i don't know exactly why. maybe i just didn't feel the need for it when i can always peek at my cellphone to see what time it is already.

I don't wear any time pieces at all anymore. They are all stashed away. I am home mostly, so I look at the clock. If I am out, I am with my husband, and can ask him what time it is.

I wear watches all the time, no pun intended. I don't have a cell phone but even if I did I'd hate to have to pull it out to see the time. My watch is easily accessable since it's right on my wrist. I always have it on.

I do wear a wrist watch and I love it. I cant imagine being without one. Everyone around here wears one. My husband has a pocket watch but he does not wear it very much. He wears a regular wrist watch when we go out. To work, he wears a wrist watch with 1/2 the band gone and pins it into his uniform pocket.HE was always loosing his wrist band and this works well for him.

There must be, If you go on th mall you can find lots of them, the fact that they are there the business is still good for those items. I buy them as gift, give away sometimes, But i dont have any for my self.

I have 2 wristwatches. One is a dressier watch while the other is one that I wear only in the hospital. I feel lost without a watch, having grown up wearing a watch daily. Despite carrying a cell phone,, I feel lost without my wristwatch! My children and my husband all still wear watches daily too. My husband has his grandfather's railroad pocketwatch but doesn't use it.
