    Nothing. Stopped wearing a watch when I got my first mobile phone.

    I still wear a watch on and off, and when I do it's a Rado Ceramica Multifunction, which I was given for my birthday a couple of years ago.

    Re: QOTW: What do you wear on your wrist?

    Sony Smart Watch 3 - though probably don't use it for notifications for over 2/3s of the time - battery drains too quick, 1.5 days - but, I have used the app Facer to custom design my watchface so that I can tell the time without my glasses on, which I can't do on any big display non-smart watch that I found in my research.
    More discrete to glance at a watchface, for time/notifications than rudely pull a phone out in company.
    Had a Fitbit in a belt pocket - steps are much more accurate at hip level than on a wrist and I know that they're not ever so accurate anyway.

    Re: QOTW: What do you wear on your wrist?

    I wear a Garmin Fenix 3, sports / smart watch... really like it, just wish I'd held out a bit longer until they released the Fenix 3 HR that has a heart rate monitor in the back of the watch.

    Re: QOTW: What do you wear on your wrist?

    I wear an ordinary analogue watch because I like it, and because it's easier than getting my phone out of my pocket and waking it up, to check the time.

    I have several friends (and a wife) who don't wear watches 'because they don't need to', but when I'm with them they're forever asking me what time it is (edit: To which I hilariously reply, 'Time you bought a watch').

    Re: QOTW: What do you wear on your wrist?

    Always an Automatic. Day-to-day a Rado Original (hard to scratch a tungsten carbide case), Oris Big Crown for special occasions. I knew somebody who bought a gold LED watch in the 70s only to find it was obsolete within two years, and I have no plans to repeat his mistake.

    Re: QOTW: What do you wear on your wrist?

    I told my Mrs I wanted something that looked smart.



    Worst smart-watch ever.

    It doesn't go off when my phone does, it doesn't sync my email, it doesn't connect to the Internet and there is no way to recharge the battery! Every couple of years you have to physically replace the whole battery.

    Re: QOTW: What do you wear on your wrist?

    Nothing, I liked the look of the moto watches, but reviews are mediocre and I have skinny programmer's wrists, so I'll probably stick to nothing
