I stopped years ago. It was funny but I felt so refreshed when I finally took my watch off. It was like I let go of some time restraints. Anyway ever notice this? And if you do wear a watch, how often do you wear it?

Of course, I am no longer completely without time, I usually have my cell phone on me when I'm away from the house. And I've noticed, now that I've returned to work, that I do watch the clock a bit more.

That is pretty neat. I bet it would be kinda' "freeing".

I always wear a watch though. I am habitually late with a watch, can't even begin to imagine how bad it would be if I didn't wear one.

I only wear a watch if I'm taking the girls somewhere and don't have any pockets for my phone and am not carrying my backpack... so I don't wear it often.

I stopped wearing one years ago when I started having to carry a pager for work. Now we've moved up to cell phones, and I still don't wear one.

I always used to wear one, but since getting a cell phone I really don't need one anymore. I have many watches though! They just sit in my jewelry case! I'm habitually early. I always need SOMETHING to keep time with me or I go nuts.

I feel NAKED without my watch. I know I still have my cell to look at, but it's a pain to pull it out of my pocket when I can quickly look at my wrist and be done. I almost always have my sports watch on with the timer, etc. My nicer church watch needs a new battery so I wear this one to church now too. ALthough I must say I HATE trying to read the hands and prefer my digital time anyway!

Same here. I've been wearing the same watch for 22 years and I feel weird if I don't have it on when I'm out and about.

nope, no watch for many years. I have clocks and cell phone for time, but really time isn't very important to my schedule.

I don't...I can't seem to find one that I like well enough to want to wear.
