    How many forum members still enjoy wearing watches in spite of having the time on their phone?
    Let's see some pics.
    To keep on topic the only rule is that you must have a phone in the picture with your watch.

    Here's one of mine. A vintage 1958 Omega Railmaster with my 9900 and PlayBook....

    Although I don't have any photos of it at the moment, I have a Tissot PRC 200, like the one below, that I often wear. There's just something nice about a good watch!

    Yes. The time is readily available everywhere you look on wall clocks, computers, car dashes, cell phones etc.
    Wearing a watch is no longer necessary.

    I think, in a way, it's makes me enjoy my watches even more now. Sometimes it's nice to wear/own something just because you want to and not because you have to.

    Agreed. I've been wearing watches since I had a pink and purple plastic watch where the face lifted to reveal pink cherry flavored lip gloss. That had to have been college, at least. I kid, I kid. But seriously, wearing a watch is pretty much all I've ever known.

    Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon I here (ETA 2892 movement). I only wear mechanicals now. There's something about watching a sweep second hand and listening to the gears run. When the batteries in all the phones and clocks have died, my watch will keep running.

    Big collector of watches here! Used my 9850 to take the pic, so was unable to include it with the shot. Several times left my house without wearing a watch only to find myself returning to go back for it. Think I must own about 50 or so

    A timeless classic. For a person with class. Doesn't draw attention to itself, simple bezel and no date function. Analogs only for me, simple, and as I learned a long time ago, avoid date/date, no monthly messing with a day or date function.
