I barely wear a watch at all these days.

I come here for the people.

So no. I do not.

Wow, I put it on and grab my recharged phone as I roll out of bed in the morning, and put it on my night table when I hop in bed at night. Usually it only comes off if I'm exercising, which is probably an average of two hours a day off my wrist. I always enjoy wearing my watch. Truly, I can't imagine only wearing it when I go out, as I wear it for me, not for others

I do not. Don’t wear one much lately either. Don’t want the tan line. Lol

Yes, why not? Live alone so it’s just for me. I also wear designer clothes by myself at home. It’s just for fun. Probably be 99% as happy with no watch and a Walmart tee anyway

Yep. Now that I'm post retirement I don't wear a different watch every day, but I'd almost feel nekkid without one. Here's today's watch to dig in the garden.

Nope.

As soon as I walk into the house I take it off and place it along my wallet on the kitchen counter.

Always. I'm never without a watch on my wrist (and yes, if I'm wearing a WR200 watch I even shower with it).

Yep, I am either at home or the gym these days so only time I wear a watch is at home, with a silky off the shoulder gown.

My exercise is time spent on my NuStep, and I keep my watch on for that. Other than that, add my name to the above post.

Same, unless I have a zoom. And some days I just put one on for kicks.

I have 4. And every time I try to wear them, I soon take them off.

But I still look, and “shop” mostly out of habit and boredom.

Still would love to find the one watch I could wear for the rest of my days.

Don’t anticipate selling anything I currently have.

I wear a watch unless I'm in bed or in the shower.

I wear a watch all day and night. I only take it off for showers… I prefer to wash my watches separately.

I agree and do the same however it pains me to see them being unworn.

At some point I will probably just move most of them and be done with it, the fun is gone in this hobby for me. I doubt anything could bring it back at this point.
