Are Wrist Watches Passe' ???

Yesterday I found a beautiful dress watch that my I had received as a gift many years a go. I never wore it. I had been relying on my cell phone for years to give me the correct time and had long since stopped wearing watches. I looked at it and thought, that's a really nice watch, but quickly returned it to the back of the cabinet. I can't think of many people that wear watches anymore. My mom has her dress watches and then she has her “everyday watch”. She only uses her cell phone for long distance calls and would never take it out of her purse just to see the time. I squint to see the teeny-tiny numbers on mine several times a day, even at home where there's a digital clock on practically everything. So what do you think, are wrist watches really passe' ???

I was thinking about that the other day - My mum offered to buy me a watch for christmas - and I was like - I really don't need one - I have my phone...

Well.. I still wear my everyday watch.. and I do use my phone to tell the time as well.. I guess for me it's more habitual than actual usage.. I am so used to wearing a watch that my wrist will feel funnily light if I don't..

I've never worn a watch. I think the only person I know that wears a watch right now is my stepdad.
I'd say if you love the watch then wear it, but I don't like heavy things on my wrist. I'm weird, so I don't wear them!

I think older people may cling to the wrist watch more than the youthful generation. We are using our cell phones all the time. Why bother with a wrist watch? I think until someone makes the wrist watch fashionable again ie "The latest in fashion" the wrist watch will remain passe.
