If anyone was wondering why I wear a watch on my wrist...
 
I dunno, I guess it's so I know what time it is? And better than wearing it other places on my bod.

I have OCD. I have to wear a watch. I have to know what time it is. If not, I might just have a panic attack.

It also works as an accesory, although some people can get carried away by getting expensive watches. I believe in cheaper ones myself, never more than 200 bucks and usually in the 50 buck range.

my cellphone has the time. thus rendering the watch pretty useless

i have a watch but i don't bother with it because it's analog and i have a really hard time reading analog clocks for some reason
but digital watches look stupid

The simpler the better, when it comes to a watch. I usually wear my military Timex. I don't have huge wrists, so the smallish face and thinness of the watch works for me. Plus it is as basic as you can get--hour and minute hands, second hand, black face, white numbers, and a black nylon band.

I have to wear a watch at work, I can't be popping out my phone during class to check the time, it sets a bad example, plus I like to wear a nice watch, it adds class to my other wise low-class lifestyle

If you're lost in the woods, you can determine your directions by using your watch hands and the sun. Sort of a makeshift compas.

I have a skill to ask "god" what time it is.

randomly when someone will ask what time it is, intuitively the digits will pop into my head, and they are ALWAYS exact. it trips even me out..

I don't wear a watch on my wrist.
I feel like cattle when I do.

Wrist watches are terribly uncomfortable to me. I used to look like a dork carrying around a pocket watch until they invented that "cellular telephone."
