Do you wear a watch?

I almost always wear a watch. One time I was out running errands, panicked a bit because I realized I had forgotten my watch, and had to be somewhere at a certain time. Pulled out the cell phone to make a call and realized, duh, the time is right on top! I had quite a collection when I was younger but stopped replacing batteries as they died. Now I just have a few running watches. The one I wear daily is on military time, a left-over from my emergency services days. People always make a face when they see it because they have no idea what time it is. It also probably looks a bit ratty as I have glow-in-the-dark thread wound around one side of the band, but it looks cool at night
