Before going on a trip, I buy the cheapest analog watch I can find and hope it lasts until I get home. Analog because when I change time zones, I doln’t want to read the manual to reset it.
I use my Fitbit as a watch.
KW18 smartwatch. It has an accelerometer in it that senses when I’m holding my wrist in front of my face and turns on the display.
I want a nice, wind up wristwatch, but I currently don’t have one. I also kinda want a flat watch that I can wear to bed without noticing, since that’s the main time I need to look at the time and can’t easily just look at my computer, tablet, or phone.
The nice watch would be more for wearing out, and the wind up part just something to make it more interesting to me. The flat watch is entirely utilitarian, and what I would wear most of the time.
My everyday wear is a very nice quartz wristwatch with a famous name (nor Rolex). It was a wedding gift from my wife and I’ve worn it for 16 years now. Expensive. My wife was a nut for buying it, but I do like it very much. That’s pretty much my only watch.
I have just one other, as a backup for when my main watch’s battery dies or if I’m doing manual labor that might damage the watch — a simple solar-powered watch, no frills.
Those are the only two I own, and I’m almost always wearing my watch.
I recently bought a Huawei smartwatch and now wear that most of the time. Not only can I glance at the time without pulling out my phone, I can answer calls, read text messages, track workouts. I can also load any of tens of thousands of faces from various free/cheap apps, and design my own.
I still enjoy wearing a regular watch. I have several watches, a few pricey but most of them cheap, and have narrowed down what I wear regularly to the nicer ones.
Rolex Oyster Perpetual DateJust Two-Toned with Jubilee Bracelet–inherited from my dad. It cost me more to get maintenance done on it then what my next-most-expensive watch cost. Self-winding mechanical.
Victorinox Swiss Army Model 241509–anniversary gift from my wife. Keeps very accurate time and looks sharp. Quartz, battery.
Seiko Kinetic Model 5M43-OA50–I bought this in Cairo. It can switch between the day/date in English and Arabic. It is self-powered with a capacitor, which died and I had replaced with a Lithium ion battery, which died and the watch is currently not working. I am looking around for someone to do another replacement.
Invicta Men’s Force #3332–I’m left-handed and this is a chronometer with buttons on the left. I got a good deal on it at the time but now you can get it for half of what I paid for it. The stem no longer fully engages and if you spin the stem while fully depressed it changes the date. Not worth repairing but it keeps excellent time.
Sthührling Skeleton Watch–Got a good deal on this, which I think was a pricing fluke on Overstock.com. It was a fair price but I see it advertised for more than double what I paid. I get a lot of compliments on how it looks. It claims to be automatic but it is fully mechanical and needs to be wound. It has a day/night (sun/moon) dial, and a second-time-zone dial.
I have an iWatch 3. I’ll never go back to a regular watch.
I never liked wearing a watch. One year I was teaching 1st grade in a tragically under-cooled classroom on a tropical island. My kids were pretty sharp, because I would often take my watch off without even realizing it. Later I would look at my wrist, and my entire class would point and say “You put it over there!”
Now I check the time on the phone or the computer, or I check the clock on the wall. We have one in almost every room of the house, and two clocks in two rooms.
OTOH, it’s worth a lot more than your father paid for it! 
I could sell either of my Rolexes for at least twice what I paid for them.
A $12 Timex digital plastic thing. Keep it in my pocket. “Real” pocket watches are too big and hard to use if they have a cover.
I’ve had the current one at least 20 years.
Bang … per … buck.
Digital watch with 2 time zones (one set to UTC), an alarm (for camping), countdown timer (for infrequest run training), and stopwatch
My phone is a) Not with me in the shower or swimming or kayaking b) usually not with me at all (usually in my car)

When I was ten, my parents asked me what I wanted for Christmas. I said, ‘I wanna watch!’ So they let me.
My daily wear is an Omega Speedmaster Automatic, so I put down Wristwatch-windup. I have 4-5 quartz watches that I haven’t worn in years. Most of them now have dead batteries.

For me, it’s this. Plus of course the GPS in the car, which gets its time from the atomic clocks in the satellites and so is far more accurate than any clock that gets its time from a lesser source. And usually, those three clocks are three more clocks than I need, which is one of the great benefits of being retired! 
It’s true that when driving one is sometimes heading to someplace with a scheduled arrival time in mind, and the car display is perfect for that; furthermore, if it’s GPS driven, it will not only give you the current time, but also your ETA.
The truth is that there are clocks everywhere, the cell phone being the most ubiquitous personal one. Every phone in my house, wired or cordless, displays the time. The stove displays the time. The microwave displays the time. The thermostat displays the time. I just realized, in thinking about it, that there are 7 clocks in my bedroom alone, two alarm clocks and the rest embedded in a plethora of digital devices. And they sit there ticking or glowing and dutifully displaying the time whether I need it or not, and ready at the drop of a hat to ring, beep, howl, or otherwise disturb the peace to let me know that some hour I don’t care about has arrived. 
While this is undoubtedly true, my own preference is casual comfort and not being burdened with unnecessary contrivances. I realize that others have different priorities about fashion and consider a watch part of that, and that’s perfectly fine. Personally, though, I have even less interest in bejeweling myself than I usually have in what the time is.
Other : Giant wall clock on a gold chain around my neck, boyeee!
Naah, actually Other: Phone. I have several pocket watches, but they’re for when I’m dressing all steampunk, not as my first choice of timepiece.
This is me too. I have a collection of nice looking watches that I choose from. I have a current affinity for Shinola products, because I am from Michigan and have been to their factory/store in Detroit many times.
My spouse bought me an iWatch for Christmas last year (she wears one). She explained that it can track my fitness activity. After I finished laughing, I told her, “no thanks, take it back”. Just not my thang, ifyaknowwhatImean.
Oh, and I have a Tarantino kangaroo, it was my grandfather’s.
Shinola? I’d never heard of that store before. There’s one near downtown Palo Alto CA, just off of University Ave. As I walked past it, its name caught my eye. With a name like Shinola, I just had to double back to check it out. Nice store, with nice stuff. Nice watches too, but I don’t need another.
When my watch battery died I was thinking about where to get a replacement when I suddenly realized:
-my cell phone has the time
-every room in my house (except bathrooms) has at least a clock
-every one of my vehicles has at least one clock
-most everywhere I go has wall clocks
Given that, I could not think of one valid reason to wear or carry another timepiece. That was probably 10 years ago.
I have watches that do all that.
Why not?
I feel naked w/o a watch. I did a race last week that didn’t allow any electronics. I put a rubber band on my wrist so at least it would ‘feel’ right.
I am rarely anyplace that doesn’t have a clock on the wall or on the dash, so I started using my phone for the odd times decades ago. I hate the feel of anything on my wrists, which are too small for anything but customed bands anyway. I have pocket watches galore, but they are more for collecting than actually using.
