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 watches, beautiful timepieces. I owned several of the Weil watches. I haven't worn a watch in fifteen years. Wristwatches became redundant ever since i started carrying a cell phone. I gave all of my watches away. Today, watches are nothing more than jewelry in my opinion.

Aball, if a hifi stereo is considered jewelry, and an iPod is considered enough, I guess I might be a bit overdressed. Guilty as charged.

I wear a Longines modded with tubes. Not as accurate as a solid state watch, but the time it keeps is warmer that solid state. Lots of air and detail when it ticks.

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.

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.
