do you wear a watch?

I've owned one watch my entire life and had it less than a year.
To be fair, I'm not much of a jewelry person. I only wear earrings and might add a bracelet if I wanna be fancy.

I wear a watch every day and don’t feel complete without one. It’s useful to tell the time if my phone is put away, and it’s beautiful to look at. A win-win really. . .
Everyday and constantly unless showering. I never considered myself a watch lover until I got my Cartier Panthere but won’t be parted from it! 
Same here. I wear it when I sleep an in the shower and only take it out when I change watches (at the movement I rotate two watches).I wear my watch everyday. I feel naked without a watch.
Now, a different question is, do I use my watch to tell time? No I don’t. Half the time I don’t even bother setting it to the correct one
Almost every time I leave the house. I am lazy about rings, necklaces and bracelets but I almost always wear my watch and studs.
Pretty much every day of my life. My dad was a watch guy so I started wearing an analog Timex when I was 6 years old, then I got a digital Casio when I was 8. Haven't stopped wearing watches since, but I've graduated a little bit.
Before covid, I wore a titanium IWC GST perpetual chronograph everyday. Covid hit and I decided it was a good time to send a bunch of my watches off for service since we weren't going out. (Two IWCs, a Breitling, a Rolex, and a Michele all went for service this year.) Three of my watches are still not back, so I got an Apple Watch a month ago and I've actually become really fond of its utility.
If you look closely, you can see this photo is from July 2016. Since I don't have the left one back from service yet, this is the best I can do for a side-by-side of the two watches I wear most often. Pardon my weathered nightstand -- it's about 100 years old.

I don’t.. y beautiful watches are collecting dust. Sometimes I think if I buy that omega constellation watch I’ve wanted, I’ll wear it everyday....but deep down I know I won’t. I don’t wear my solitaire e-ring everyday and I love it to bits! I do feel it’s more special though because I’m not staring at it constantly.
I love watches but don’t wear one every day. Depends on my mood; what I’m doing; and, what else I’m wearing. When I do wear one, sometimes I go for days wearing that particular one. I don’t really rotate evenly. @Four Tails, love your photo of the IWCs and the patinaed nightstand 
im waiting for three watches to return from service and I think it’s taking longer in covid times.
@doni, ITA I forget to set my watch and get it going all the time, so I actually never know the exact time.
Edit: the WG breguet heritage just returned March 4, 2021 looking new.

The Classic watch is everything, I know, but every time I try to wear a watch, it's too uncomfy..
Every day! I have several watches that I wear depending on the occasion. My “fanciest” watch is my stainless and gold omega with a diamond bezel, I have a dainty 14k gold watch, several watches passed down through family, my everyday workhorse watch is a stainless citizen eco-drive (still going strong after 20 years) and a timex wind up my parents gave me when I was 10 (I’m 61).
I have worn a watch every day since I was in my early twenties. In fact, I never take my watch off, apart from to change it out for my other watch. I feel naked without it!
