Why do you wear a watch? Comment below!

Reasons I wear a watch:

1. To look cool
2. To sneakily check the time when I don't want to appear rude or bored

[WorldTravelerCA]

I would have to agree 100% that wrist watches are extremely important not only because they're very easy to check the time but also getting compliments on them is also a great feeling

[CopperScott]

If it takes you a whole minute to check the time on your phone, you have a serious problem.

I feel naked when i dont wear my watch. Its just a part of me.

Point number 8: "Wearing a watch sends a signal to clients and coworkers that you care about time." And this is especially important if their time is important to them.

You wear a watch for the exact same reason you comb your hair, shine your shoes, or brush your teeth. Or refrain from getting your face and hands tattooed. Of course, this may not matter to you if you never interact with clients or if you work somewhere in the back room. Or if you are an unemployed artist. But in some professions, it is a mandatory sign of professionalism. Have you ever seen a doctor or nurse NOT wearing a watch? Or an attorney, or a banker?

You don't need a wristwatch to sit home and play video games, but you do need one if you want to make a good impression in the workplace. When you are ready to grow up, you will start wearing a wristwatch.

For me it's a good way of checking time in more professional settings.

When I'm in an interview and take a second to think, I usually have my arms on the table so I can look down at my watch and pace myself. Like on longer questions regarding my experience, I would ask for 30 seconds or so and think to myself "10 seconds to brainstorm bullet points for 3 major relevant experiences".

When I'm out at a nice dinner or a formal, I'd prefer to keep my phone out of sight as much as possible and just refer to my watch. It's courteous to those you're spending time with and it feels classier. Perhaps I'm trying too hard to be sophisticated or I'm looking into it too much, but those are just my 2 cents on wearing a watch.

Best of luck telling what time it is in an examination hall with your phone.

To all these dummies saying "oh a watch is obsolete" "a watch is pointless". None of you get it, a watch is jewelry! Where do they sell high quality watch? THAT'S RIGHT a jewelry store! It is NOT a dying industry and anyone who says that is just plain ignorant, get back to me when Rolex and Seiko go out of business. NOT GONNA HAPPEN!

My grandfather had a watch when he fought with the RAF in WW2, he passed it down to my father, who has now passed it down to me! Watches preserve memories...

Finally, an Antonio I don't hate! Bet you've been playing chess for years!

Reason 8: CHARACTER - A watch is part of a definition of the person who is wearing it. You can define someone's taste and style by what they are wearing. Whether if is a simple dress watch, a sporty G-Shock, a gold Rolex, a complicated piece like Breguet, a plastic quartz, rare vintage model, or a high-end piece like Patek.
Reason 9: STATUS SYMBOL
Reason 10: CHICK-MAGNET :)
Reason 11: THE BOND - Watch wearers and collectors have special bond with they pieces. Just like car enthusiasts love their cars. Also a watch can be passed down from father to son, creating a special connection.
Reason 12: JEWELRY - A nice watch can be a man's only piece of jewelry. And a fashion statement.
Reason 13: A DRESS WATCH - Every nice suit isn't complete without a nice dress watch.
Reason 14: EMERGENCY FUND - If you are traveling aboard and happen to lost all your cash and credit cards, you can sell or pawn your watch and save you a lot of trouble.

you convinced me to buy a Watch thanks a lot

[OmaMansou]

Since I bought my first "premium" watch, life has drastically changed for me. I feel that what I'm wearing is more complete. It may seem very unimportant because of its size but the touch that it gives to your clothes is 10 times bigger. I also received many compliments thus improving and enhancing my confidence and self-esteem.

About 15 years ago or so, I purchased a Seiko Kinetic at the local jewelery store's dog days sale. The thing still keeps within 1-second every six-months according to the National Bureau of Standards monitor, I only adjust it at Daylight to Standard time and back. A couple of years ago I finally acquired a quality automatic watch that attracts many compliments. I'm not a collector, but I understand the mentality.

[bkcpisme]

I have been wearing a watch for 10 years, and have recently begun to up my game with wearing "timepieces" instead of just quartz watches.

[tmz]

Like many men, I stopped wearing a watch a while back. But like you found that wearing one just ups your game, and can definitely makes you appear more professional. Classic or smart watch there's room for at least one. Plus an excellent way to complete and add some dimension a look. Thanks.

As a medical intern you're constantly on the rush and a watch really helps you keep track of the time since you basically spend your whole day in a hospital... Personally I think that the simplest the watch, the better!

Great video Antonio

[JakeGroet]

I wear the same Rotary watch everyday and have done since March, when I received it as a birthday gift. It was priced at £120, which is roughly $185, and it's been an incredible investment for me. Its silver in colour with black leather, its classy and subtle, I consider a watch a staple of my wardrobe. A great video Antonio, I will definitely add myself to the email list for The Fifth.

My watches are part of my life. Always dress my watch on. No matter where i go or what i do. No matter what style of life you have, their is always a right watch for your needs. Good video
