I never wear a watch on my arm, however I use my cell phone whenever I need the time, and it has a digital clock. I'm most used to the digitals, since I have it on my computer, stereo, alarm clock, tv etcetera.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I wear a mix. I alternate depending on my mood between Analog and my LED Binary Watch (I guess that's digital, but I'm not sure). I keep a cheap digital around for use when exercising.

How ya doing, buddy?

I have a pocket watch; it would be blasphemy to create a digital pocket watch. Though the time on my phone is in digital. If the time is in digital, it must be in 24 hour clock, or it makes no sense to me. And I prefer roman numerals on analog watches.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Right now, I own a digital watch because I do a lot of working out and running, so its easier to just have a watch strapped onto my arm rather than something big and clunky. Besides, it has a timer on it too!

I used to have an analog watch, but as started before, I do a lot of training. They sure do look pretty, but I don't need it right now.

I use a digital, becuase I dont see the point in still using mechanical watches.


It's like driving a Model T, outdated and stupid, in my opinion.

How ya doing, buddy?

Yeah, except that it's not like that at all, because analog watches still have all the basic functionality required for an average person.

You also seem to be a bit confused as to what the term 'analog watch' means (hint: it's not the same as 'mechanical').

How ya doing, buddy?

Who needs a watch? I can determine the approximate time using the old sun-shadow method, or simply estimate according to daylight, and time of year.

But if I had to choose, I'd wear a digital.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I remember my vary first watch was analogue with no numbers. That one sometimes gets kinda confusing and I wear it backward occasionally. >.> But I was a kid, what do I care, eh?

Later on I got a really cool digital watch from a company name TokyoWatch (?) that has a big bottom in the middle. When you press it, it makes a loud "bong!" and follow by a voice reading the current time in Japanese, that was pretty awesome. Too bad it wasn't water resistants. I have been using a digital one ever since. I also wears the watch almost at all times, with the exception when I take showers. >.>;; Does anyone feel naked when they are not wearing watches, as in, couldn't track time whenever?

I never quite understand why people think that analogue is more aesthetically pleasing compare to digital ones, its probably pretty subjective. Although I personally prefer digital ones, reason being the fact that I don't have to actually comprehend what it is being indicated by the arm, and rather by numbers that are more intuitive. Just being lazy, I guess.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I use to have this neat digital watch that acted as a remote control for any TV. It so oh-so-ill.

Digital all the way, so I can look fast and know the minutes/seconds quickly before I had to clock back in or clock back out from work.

I love my analog watches. I've got a digital with a stopwatch for when I'm running, but for everything else, I wear analog.
