+68 Everyone should have a watch on their wrist, amirite?

Getting my phone out of my pocket isn't annoying. Having a watch on my wrist is annoying. There is zero chance of my phone being picked pocketed where I live. Constantly needing to know the exact time isn't a part of my life.

Plus for the most part and most of the time, nobody needs to know the EXACT time. Without even taking out my phone I know it's "around 2 pm" or "around noon". Nothing I do in my life is SO PRESSING that I can't waste the literal 3 seconds it takes to take my phone out to check the time lol

unless you leave them running for months without adjusting the time, basically any mechanical watch will be almost perfectly accurate, even if you wait like 3-5 months before spending literally 10 seconds to adjust it, it will be like 50 seconds off at worst, for an average luxury watch like a rolex that time is probably like 30 seconds. I dont think these days watch accuracy is something to worry about, being more accurate is always a bonus but all watches are more than accurate enough.

That is very accurate for a mechanical watch. Even Rolex only guarantee their watches now to within 2 seconds a day either side of correct time, that is, a minute per month. I think quartz is the way to go with watches myself (unless you can afford something like a Grand Seiko Spring Drive), but if you have a mechanical watch you need to reset it once a month at least, and more likely every week.

Something in my sweat kills watches. Has my whole life. So, no thanks. Even buying cheap watches, it's not worth the cost.

I don't know where you live but pickpockets aren't really a thing here, and I have no issue keeping track of time without a watch.

What kind of area do you live in to where pulling your phone out of your pocket is such a dangerous task? Lol

That's just a stupid reason. Watches are cumbersome and a waste of money

I don't have a schedule that requires me to be able to see the time instantly.

Phones made watches optional the way cars made horses optional, sure, some still prefer them, but for most people it's just one less thing to buy, charge, and remember to wear.
