I'm guess I'm just a playerhater.

I don't understand why anyone would shell out any money for a watch.

We have conference rooms with no clocks. Watches constitute basic survival.

How alternative of the both of you. So anti-mainstream. Not wearing a watch to me screams 'I don't care what time it is" which screams "I don't care if I'mon time" which screams "Loser."

I wouldn't hire either of you just based on this.

Not as if you care, but just so you know.

I think having a watch "farmer's tan" in the summer time is a rite of childhood.

I have a watch, but the battery is dead, and I have to take it to a jeweler to get it replaced, so I haven't used it in about 1.5 years. :(
It was a birthday gift from my wife back in the day.

So you just whip out a laptop whenever you want to know what time it is? How convenient.

it's got nothing to do with that, I used to always want a watch, but after losing like 3 of them I gave up.

also, for what it's worth I'm way more on time for anything than EVERY ONE of my watch-wearing friends. It's not an aesthetic thing, it's a "i lose shit" thing.

I knew this would be the wrong thing to say, but said it any way. You actually don't seem like a disorganized fuck up, but most the folks I know who don't wear watched are bun outs ;)

oh I'm quite a disorganized fuck up, make no mistake, but I'm almost always on time because that shit drives me crazy and is totally disrespectful.

wristwatches make me feel like I need to tear my arm off. I wear a wristwatch when scuba diving, otherwise I use my cell phone or a pocket watch. Between the iPod, a cell phone, and my little pocket watch, I pretty much always have the time on me.
