Posted: Tue Sep 02, 2008 12:28 amI do, but I usually use my cell phone for the time since I oddly trust Verizon Wireless to keep time more than I do the time I set on my watch. So my watch is basically just a mechanical bracelet, I guess.
Posted: Tue Sep 02, 2008 12:36 amUsually only at work but less and less. Of course, I no longer wear a suit and top hat either.

Plus, it's too hot to wear one. It would always stick to my wrist and then I'd find myself doing this crazy arm-shake-thing to get it loose. I ended up smacking one of my kids in the face trying to get it unstuck one day. Ooops.

I don't carry a cellphone & only bring it along when I travel. I don't really know what a PDA or blackberry are. I cannot text message to save my life, and I still wear a watch.
I am sure that crowds of people are pointing at me behind my back and waiting for my knuckles to start dragging on the ground.

Posted: Tue Sep 02, 2008 8:14 amYes, but primarily as a fashion statement. Hey, I'm part of the swatch generation, what can I say?
Posted: Tue Sep 02, 2008 9:00 amyes, I still do. no cell phone. This is an interesting question, as you guys are right--I guess most folks are using their phones for the time now.
Posted: Tue Sep 02, 2008 9:43 amI only wear one when I dress up. I got so sick of people telling me that I am late (which I am not because I make up my own sched.) that I stopped wearing one. Live with my cell phone on.

Posted: Tue Sep 02, 2008 10:30 amHave to use one at work - no cell phones allowed in a school. That keeps me in the habit of always using it.
Posted: Tue Sep 02, 2008 2:39 pmHells yeah. I hate not IMMEDIATELY knowing what the time is when I want to know. I'm constantly getting new ones (usually as gifts) and enjoy the envious looks I get from coworkers. [}:)] I am currently saving up to buy this baby:

LOL, those were all the rage in the 90's.
