I started wearing watches again when I realized that everytime I looked at my phone just to find the time, the phone sucked me in, whether it was briefly or extended. Putting a watch back on kept my intentions in line with my action. When I want to know what time it is, I can find out without any distraction.

Wearing my G-Shock makes me feel like a contractor. So I agree.

My Casio makes me feel like a mercenary

Not in Brazil.

Put on a watch like that, and just feel scared of getting mugged or kidnapped.

The irony is, a tool watch like a Submariner is no longer a "worker's watch".

true, my casio calculator watch makes me feel like a true drug dealer.

I got myself an automatic watch last year and I love wearing it.
There's something about having this little analogue, mechanical piece of fine technology on your wrist; sometimes I just like to look at it working, marvelling about the ingenuity of this little apparatus.

I have worn my Timex Expedition for over 3 years now. I love it because it's straightforward, simple, but also tells me the date of the month. It helps me feel a bit rugged and adventurous. It was also a gift from my parents, so it has a lot of sentimental value especially now that my mom has passed.

My 60s mechanical Flica watch holds a bittersweet significance for me. It was my paternal grandmother's, a woman I never knew. She worked at the Geneve Flica factory before the quartz crisis and passed away when my dad was only 12. Her watch is the only link I have to her, and its ticking hands remind me to treasure the time I have before it too runs out. My dad gave it to me the day I got my technical degree as a touristic guide. I find talking about the watch and its history is a great way to connect with other watch enthusiasts and somehow sometimes it starts amazing and deep conversations about other topics with fascinating people.

I’ve been wearing my dads Rado Diastar Automatic for the last 20 years since he passed away,

I am a basic nobody who doesn't get out a lot, but when I do I insist on rocking a nice watch.
It's my little way of telling myself that I am worth it.

I wear an "old school" mechanical watch because it's a single function device. Basically I'm "giving the finger" to this overcomplicated, digital culture that is constantly running at faster and faster speeds. It does one thing...and something about that is rather elegant.

This man and I live in a different world

The fact is a watch is reminding you important situations in your life. That is important to you and gives you happiness and motivation.

I have a super boring job and it can get depressing BUT I always feel better when I take a few seconds and look at my wrist watch! Thank you, Tag Hauer and Bulova!

A £10 Casio F-91W is all you really need, but there's a big difference between need and want.

[rekonzuken]

This is the best 'trust me broo' I've heard so far thank you.

I am a woman who loves classic watches ❤ I personally love wearing them, they are just so unique and interesting.

Nowadays a watch is just an accessory to your outfit, we all carry a phone that tells time and date. Personally I own one do it all watch, which I keep changing the straps to match the outfit, occasion and personal mood. It’s fun and surprisingly women notice it and give positive feedback.

My parents bought me a children’s Timex and taught me how to tell time when I was only three years old and made me responsible for reporting home to them at required times. It made me feel mature all those decades ago when we were still free were free range children and all the other children were running wild and weren’t taught yet.
