Can't be without one, I just feel naked. I do have an old Cartier my grandfater left me but I never wear it as I don't have a good track record with watches. I usually wear one of freebees I get every christmas from my sister.

At the moment, I've got one of these around my neck, because I know the person who makes them and she gave me "mate's rates" on it.
jess's watch

I wear a nurses watch for my job. I also have a Spurs wristwatch and a ringwatch!

I wish my hubby was like you - it would be so easy to buy a gift, he likes the 'mechanics' of watches and wears one occasionally but he has a 9"/9 and a half inch wrist - despite being 5' 10 I have a 6-6,5 inch wrist - my thinest part!

I feel nekkid without my watch

I wear a cheap £12.00 Sekonda I got from Argos in the week to work, and a nice alligator strap Armani dress watch at the weekends.

Yes,I always wear a Watch,got myself a nice rotary one about ten years ago.

I never wear a watch.

I've never worn a watch. I usually have my mobile phone with me, so it's not necessary.

I'm saving up for a Tag Heuer watch atm, on the basis they do the timing for F1 And the girly watches are pretty

I hate watches and have never worn one...I also never wear bracelets cos or stuff with tight cuffs cos I don't like stuff on my wrists....If I want to know the time I look at my phone.

I have to wear wrist supports, so am now unable to wear a watch. I really missed it at first, but now it doesn't bother me at all.

I guess people do get tired of me asking them what time it is all the time though!

always forget to put it on, always put my other jewellery on though

I always remember my watch, but not other jewellery

I always wear a watch. Swatch watch for everyday and I have a nice selection of 'special occasion' watches. I know a lot of people use their mobile phones these days, but that begs the question 'what did you do before mobile phones'?

I have two beautiful omega watches and always have one of them on my wrist.

always wear a watch couldnt be without one, i've an addidas sport led watch, a casio camera watch, an icool cellphone watch and 3 rolex one of which is my "special occasion" watch.

Leaving a watch behind is like forgetting my purse or handbag!

I like 'Storm' watches - chunky, black watches. Hubby did buy me a Rado for Christmas (as it was Blakish-ish).

i only wear 'storm' watches-i've got a nice little collection going on

my favourite is my bright blue one which i am sporting at this very moment

I think l have a fetish l have about 20 of them, different colours and styles and match them to my outfits.
Once l went out shopping and realised l had forgotten to put one on, l had to pop into a shop and buy one (albeit a cheap one) just so l would know what the time was.

I hardly wear watches .

Always wear one, would be totally lost without one

Couldn't be without a watch on,i have a lovely D&G one, and an equally lovely Cartier one(both bought in Turkey ) .

I usually know roughly what the time is anyway.

9"/9 God I'm glad you clarified that.

I rarely wear a watch...since I'm not allowed to wear one at work, I just leave it at home most of the time.
When I do remember, mine is a pale blue Terrain watch with a butterfly on the face.
(Except when I'm going to a Steampunk do, when it's a brass skeleton pocket watch on a long slide, tucked in the top of me corset)

I have a lovely Guess Chase Chrono

RRP = £145

I shopped around and got mine for £93

My husband had an absolute fixation with watches, everywhere we went on holiday he`d buy at least one or two and we`d go out somewhere and he`d always head for the jewellers to look at them
I`ve still got a large box with them all in and for the last 3 years I`ve been checking them all to keep them going, I feel like he`s watching me from somewhere and he`ll go mad if I let them stop

I can't go out the house without a watch, i'll feel naked without one, i have a Jasper Conran watch with dimond incrusted around the edge of the face and on the strap, it's a gorgeoues watch.

Only take mine off when I wash or shower.

I am only one in family that wears one

My Mum bought me one for Christmas which I've worn almost everyday.
Before that I hardly ever wore one. I have about 4 in my jewellery box that I haven't worn for years.

I have an old Accurist watch that I've worn for several years ......................I hate going out without it and if I happen to I find myself constantly gazing at my bare left wrist.

This begs the question ...........do you wear your watch on your left or right wrist. I think it's considered correct to wear it on the left (I do) I always find it really odd when people wear it on the right. More and more people do nowadays 9not just left handers).

When I wear one (not at the moment because I've got my watch pendant on) I always wear it on my right wrist. I have two watches - a Storm one with silver circular links, and a Fossil one with steel and wood square links.

I'm left handed and wearing a watch on my left wrist just feels wrong. But the trouble is, the winder is then on the wrong side - facing my arm instead of my hand.

It's possible to get deluxe watches like Rolex with the winder left-handed. If I ever win the lotto, I'll have one.

awww

I feel very lost without a watch, don't think it's a time thing, it's just a habit. I couldn't live without one.

I have quite a few of them, Armani, DNKY (about 4 of those....well they're cheap ), Gucci.

But the one I wear one a daily basis is Dreyfuss & Co one, about £400 (I chose, he paid) which I've had for about 2 yrs.

I wear this one but I, I mean we got it from Ernest Jones.

I hate not knowing the time. Everything I do is defined by time. It would absolutely kill me to go out somewhere and not know what time it is

I haven't worn a watch for years. I hate things around my wrists (or neck for that matter) and so it has to be absolutely comfortable or I'd just take it off and leave it somewhere. When my last one broke I couldn't find one I gelled with, one that felt right on my wrist, so I stopped wearing one.

I only wear jewellery when I'm dressed up and going out as well, things like that irritate me and I end up unconsciously fiddling with them all day or taking them off and wondering later where I put them.
