Do watches still serve a purpose?

I haven't worn a watch since the early 2000's. Not because I had a cell phone, but because I kept on breaking them when I was either working on cars in my dad's shop or splitting wood and working outside.

Also- any of you that think looking at your watch is more discreet than looking at your phone in a meeting are full of shit. You're not fooling anybody.

I didn't buy an iPhone as a "what time is it" device, so YES... a watch STILL serves a purpose for me and I still wear one.

Though, I have had to go with the cheaper watches these days as I tended to ding my good watches quite a bit. So for most times while 'out and about', I just wear a Timex. They certainly ARE durable! heh heh :headbanger:

Jeff Rogers. Always wanted to wear mine. Fuck off Jeff. It’s not my fault your dad is an alcoholic and blows all his money on booze.
 
Of course they still serve a purpose. Whenever you want to bow out of an annoying conversation you can flip your wrist out and say “gee, look at the time. Gotta run!”

You just can’t look at your phone and do that. You just come off as a rude asshole.

I’m pretty good at getting out of conversations, and I take pride in my reputation as a rude asshole

Back when I wore sunglasses, I’d keep a cheap pair forever, but as soon as I bought an expensive pair, they’d get broke, scratched or dropped in the river in short order.

You can look at your phone and say "damn, I have to take this call" hold it to your head and walk away.
 
As said earlier its a fashion piece. I like wearing watches and it isn't to know what fucking time it is
