What time do you wear?


What watch, if any, graces your wrist? Does time matter? You know: time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana. Either way.

When I did wear a watch, I wore Raymond Weil. I owned several of their models. After I got my first iPhone in 2008, I stopped wearing watches. My iPhone became my timepiece. I offered to give my watches to my 16 year-old son, he said "no thanks"...he uses his iPhone as a timepiece also. My grown daughter came by and emptied my drawer of unused watches, she wears them as fashion accessories..she also uses her iPhone as her primary timepiece.

Because I use my iPhone as my timepiece, I find a watch redundant.

It is apparent now that people who stop wearing watches because they use their phones to tell the time do not value watches as jewelry, or for their intrinsic beauty. I find no problem with that at all, but there are those of us, like myself, who simply appreciate watches for what they are, and enjoy having that little heartbeat going on their wrist. I feel naked without it.

Roxy, I do appreciate their intrinsic beauty and their workmanship. Since I never really cared for jewelry, once the smartphone made a separate timepiece redundant, I just stopped wearing them.

I have a buddy that collects watches, but he doesn't wear a watch. Kinda like my LP's...... I own 3,000 of them and appreciate them for what they are, but I overwhelmingly listen to digital.
