When i'm home I never wear a watch, but I always wear a watch when i'm out of the house. Watch, wallet, cell phone and keys.

Yes, always. My kids, never--if they bother with the time they just check the cell phone. That wouldn't work for me since mine is generally only on about an hour a day.

Yes - an analog watch to boot. Usually a Timex (love the Indiglo) and often my old Wittnauer.

I wear a watch all the time, except in the shower and in bed. I carry my cell phone about once a month, but even if I carried it all the time, I'd still wear a watch. I, too, have quite a collection. We happened upon a watch store at an outlet mall last year that was discontinuing carrying Fossil watches and were selling them for $20 each, regardless of original price. My wife and I bought about 10 each, some with original prices well over $200.

Not generally. Sometimes I will if I am traveling.

I wore a watch pretty much constantly from Jr high until last spring when my watch band broke. Actually, the case of the watch broke where the band attached.
I decided to shop for the "Right" watch this time...
After a couple months of no watch on my arm driving me NUTS, I finally got over it...
Not wearing one right now.
Still want to find basically a "mini PDA" watch.
Don't have or want a cell phone (more to the point, don't have or want a cell phone BILL).. don't have or want a full-size PDA either.
Just want a phone list and programmable event calendar on my WRIST that tells time.
USB or Bluetooth for programming.
Apparently, no such thing exists...

Nope---phone only

I've worn one since I was a kid, but last year, after retiring from my day job, I hung it on the key rack by the door and haven't touched it since.
I carry my cell just about everywhere, and that's plenty enough these days.

In the house I don't wear a watch but definitely wear it when I am out. Not quite feeling naked without one but certainly not quite right. When out I almost always have my cellphone with me but that is not the same. My wife gave me a watch over 30 years ago and I loved it, a Seiko automatic. When the strap broke about 12 years ago I carried it around in my pocket for a while until she gave me a virtually identical looking Seiko, only battery run rather than my old movement wound.
Next poll, where do you wear it? Could get some weird answers I know but am I unusual in wearing it on the inside of my wrist?
