I don't currently wear a watch - I find that the eczema on my wrist makes it very annoying. I will wear a watch if I'm likely to go somewhere where I need a reasonably reliable indicator of time, and I'm not likely to be able to use my phone or computer (mind, my phone's clock does occasionally suffer from serious problems with its lifestyle). I have a watch/heart-rate monitor for use when exercising, my mother's mother's wrist watch, which used to be my standard watch for everyday wear, a waterproof watch for use when swimming (I can't see the wall clocks in a pool - too short-sighted), my father's mother's fairly posh wrist watch, and her watch on a chain, which was a present from when she left nursing, I believe. They do now all work, and I wear the posher ones from time to time when out.
