Do you wear a watch?

In 2004 when we (14 family members) went to Disneyland for Christmas, I decided that since I was going to be in the Happiest Place On Earth, I didn't need need to keep track of time for the full 6 days. I haven't put it back on since.

The side note is I (almost) always have my cell phone with me and I am either at the computer or in my truck. All of which serve the purpose.

Although my cell phone clock is more accurate, I still wear a watch. I will only wear one type of watch and it is a certain Disney watch. I always make sure to buy one or two whenever we go just to make sure I have a good supply of watches.

I don't need to be reminded of time while I'm at work, plus there are wall clocks everywhere. When we're in WDW, we use our cellphones if we need to make it to an ADR or parade, otherwise, who cares about time when you're in WDW?! And when I'm running, I wear my watch. I voted NO!

Yes, I always wear a watch. Even though my phone can tell the time, it's too much trouble to pull it out and look at it every time I want to know what time it is.

I absolutely wear a watch. I feel uncomfortable if I am not wearing my watch. I am like Future Guy when it comes to looking up the time, it is just easier to look at a watch than to pull out my phone and look at it.

Oh and all my watches (I have 32) are analog.

I wear a watch, but if I forget, I then use my cell phone as my alternate chronometer.

Cell Phone for me. Been doing it for at least 10 years now and through 3 or 4 different phones. For some reason the numbers keep getting bigger too......hmm.

Let's see, should I wear my Mickey watch, Minnie watch or Tinkerbell watch?!

Nope. I used to religiously, but then I had a hand/wrist injury and couldn't wear one. Never got back in the habit.

I always wear a watch. I have several, including my Goofy backwards watch. I love when people ask me the time and I just let them look at Goofy.

I have a wall clock that does that, it's hanging in my kitchen. People don't notice it at first, usually their first reaction is "your clock is off." But then they realize the numbers are backwards and screws with their heads. It's fun.

I wear one that is both analog and digital. I keep local time on analog, and GMT on digital.

I can never remember if it's standard time, or daylight savings, and do I need to subtract 5 hours or 6 hours for my time zone. With the digital part, I just set it and forget it.

St-stamp!!

Tailgate tested. Tailgate approved!!

I saw a report the other day on a local news station about how to appear younger than you actually are. It was part of a series on successful interviewing for a job. One of the things they listed as something that "dates you" was wearing a watch. As indicated here, most people now use their phone or PDA for time. I thought that was interesting.

Another thing they said was don't order a Cosmo.
